The aspect that's somewhat unique in Canada is the separation of the function of contracting from defence materiel in general. It works well here. The Australians have a combined defence materiel organization. The United States has four or five, although my counterpart has sort of a strategic role of coordination in the Pentagon.
Many other countries are going to performance-based procurement and performance-based logistics support. We are somewhat ahead of other countries, but others are further ahead, for example the Danes and some Scandinavian countries.
We procure a lot more competitively than most other countries do. The United States is about 46% sole-source. We are 20% or less, and that 20% is driven by intellectual property rights in government-mandated programs and so on. So there are some differences in execution, but most of the western countries are going the same direction in terms of performance-based logistics and performance-based procurement.
