We're anxious for DOD to succeed. We know they will succeed.

Our intention is that the final outcome will be a program that represents choice as well as a cost-efficient and -effective approach capable of meeting the needs of prospective enrollees.

The solicitation will be broad enough to accommodate a wide variety of product types, including national and regional vendors. We expect that the solicitation will lead to a healthy competition among potential providers.

At the forum, we will discuss GAO's recommendations, listen to your thoughts and concerns and discuss ways to improve this valuable recruitment and retention tool.
