The Congressional Research Service (CRS) has released a report providing an overview of acquisition-related provisions found in National Defense Acquisition Acts in the last three fiscal years, FY16-18.

The CRS reports that the specific topics that are a focus of the legislation are:
- Major Defense Acquisition Programs,
- the acquisition workforce,
- commercial items,
- Other Transaction Authority, and
- contract types.
The report also discusses one of the more controversial and extensive legislative changes made in recent years affecting acquisition: the breakup of the office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics (AT&L), as well as the shift of authority from that office to the military departments.
