Reviews"Given what FAR says so eloquently and the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and Office of Federal Procurement Policy have reaffirmed, it is not surprising that on June 14, 2012, the OMB provided a 25-page memorandum providing guidance to support modular development that specifically addressed the practices and issues raised here. I recommend this book to all members of any integrated product team tasked with IT acquisition and contracting." ( Computing Reviews , 7 January 2013)
