That, and the Administration basically backed off and let the business guys "to their thing" - build stuff and deliver it. Well, that would be true, if it were true, but it isn't true. See, e.g., War Production Board, Supply Priorities and Allocation Board, Office of Production Management, Board of Economic Warfare, National War Labor Board, War Manpower Commission, Office of Price Administration, Office of War Mobilization, et al. Actually it is true. The government did have a lot of auditing , but very little actual control. For example factories for making Nylon were designed and built by Du pont with no government oversight of the design of the plants or how the plants were built. From Wiki. DuPont also played a major role in the Manhattan Project in 1943, designing, building and operating the Hanford plutonium producing plant in Hanford, Washington and the Savannah River Plant in South Carolina.
