In line with this strategy, CEOs of aerospace and defense firms have identified the ability to act on PBL opportunities as critical to driving innovation, promoting solution excellence, and accelerating growth within their own companies.

With the increased emphasis on PBL acquisition strategies, aerospace and defense firms now face increased pressure to:

Enhance the overall management capabilities for contracts, products, and services, including determining the appropriate risk premium when negotiating PBL contracts
