Researchers found three alternatives for the Coast Guard's cost-estimating capability.

• Alternative A would maintain the status quo. This option saves review time and does not require extra billets, but is the least responsive to required changes.
• Alternative B would create a civilian-military competency-aligned division. This division would be best aligned to meet changing requirements and improve communication and career advancement. However, it would add more time to review and would require realignment of cost estimator billets.
• Alternative C would be similar to Alternative B, but would initially include contracting support as well.
