Abstract

The Defense Blood Standard System (DBSS) Functional Economic Analysis (FEA) was the first FEA to be accepted by the Department of Defense (DoD) Director of Defense Information (DDI), Paul Strassmann. It was one of the first FEAs, also known as business cases, to analyze functional area costs and to apply business process reengineering in structuring alternatives to the current way of doing business. The DBSS FEA examines the business processes and practices of the DoD blood management function and analyzes changes in those practices or supporting information technologies.
