The Military's Use of Civilian Service Providers
A plan to outsource part of military logistics services, especially the provision of daily supplies, was unveiled by the CMC in 1998; a pilot program was rolled out in 1999; and the full implementation of the plan started in 2000.
Since the 18th CPC National Congress, the use of civilian providers has been gradually expanded to include other noncombat functions and areas such as military, political, and armament development. The expanded use of civilian providers relies on market mechanisms or existing public services. Services provided by civilian sectors include daily necessities, general supplies, infrastructure projects, transportation services, telephone services for non-official use, talent development, cultural activities, education of military children, defense-related research, and development, and armament production and maintenance, among others. A self-contained supply system has gradually given way to a network that relies on civilian providers, significantly improving efficiency and cost-effectiveness.
軍隊保障社會化
1998年中央軍委提出軍隊后勤保障特別是生活保障必須社會化,1999年試點(diǎn),2000年在全軍推行。中國共產(chǎn)黨第十八次全國代表大會以來,中國軍隊保障社會化范圍不斷拓展,由后勤領(lǐng)域逐步拓展延伸到軍事、政治、裝備等領(lǐng)域,由生活保障社會化、后勤保障社會化到軍隊保障社會化,通過市場機(jī)制或采取納入社會化公共服務(wù)體系的形式,在生活保障、通用物資儲備、基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施建設(shè)、公務(wù)用車、非公務(wù)電話通信保障、人才培養(yǎng)、軍隊文化事業(yè)、軍人子女教育、軍事科研、裝備生產(chǎn)和維修保障等方面,初步打破了軍隊自成體系的保障方式,走開了依托社會保障的路子,取得了明顯的軍事、經(jīng)濟(jì)和社會效益。
