Randolph is changing air Force procurement policy in an Effort in Cut in half the time needed to select a  also has called for reducing he num Ber of briefings required before top level decision makers Sec proposals. But streamlining the system must be tempered with a guarantee that lax Dol Lars Are being Well spent. The process always needs to bewitched so thai it does t become Overly bureaucratic Randolph said.
