The Department of Defense (DOD), specifically the United States Air Force (USAF) is responsible for the acquisition, operation, and sustainment of the Global Positioning System (GPS). As a result they have the enormous responsibility of keeping pace with the ever-growing military and civilian markets. This responsibility brings with it a lot of criticism over the management of the system which is utilized largely by the international and national civil communities. Conservative modernization deployment strategies, delayed acquisition schedules, and international distrust are a few of the criticisms that face the USAF GPS team. Inevitably, the DOD and the USAF must be in tune with the needs of and dramatic impacts that their decisions make on the millions of users worldwide. They are. Despite the astronomical growth and dependency on GPS, the DOD strikes an adequate balance between military and civilian users. This delicate balance is achieved throughout the course of the program as seen through an exploration of history, policy, strategy, and performance.
