Abstract
This report represents research conducted at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology under
the Lean Aerospace Initiative (LAI) program. The research focused on identifying Acquisition
Intrapreneurs, viewed and defined for the purpose of this research as, individuals within the
acquisition profession who take direct responsibility for turning ideas into products through
assertive risk taking. The basis for this research stems from the agile acquisition push for
“breeding innovators” to achieve a leaner and more responsive approach to the design, build, test
and fielding of warfighting systems.
