There are a number of resources out there depending on the nature of your specific question (including a recent interim update to the Department of Defense Instruction 5000.02 that gives an overview of the entire DoD acquisition process). Also, the Defense Acquisition University (DAU) website contains a wealth of information. Feel free to reach out to me via email if you need more specific information.
