  16. Our Journey to Excellence LtGen Hoffman, On restoring credibility in Air Force acquisition: … I mentioned the widespread view that our weapon systems cost too much and take longer than predicted. We need to ensure "false optimism" does not cloud our judgment. I am a natural optimist, but we need to be firmly grounded in reality as we assess program risk. Wanting something badly does not make it happen. This is especially important as we start a program….do we have a solid lock on the requirements, have we included all the elements of the program, do we have our best estimate of cost and schedule? Once we define the start of the program, we will be forever measured by that definition so take the time to do it right. We are on a quest to launch more realistic programs and bolster existing programs.

  17. Our Environment Congress Warfighters Major Commands Combatant Commanders Joint Staff S&T Laboratories Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Program Acquisition Team Financial Management Planning, Programming and Budgeting System (PPBE) Service Staffs OSD Congress Oversight Program Executive Offices Materiel Commanders Service Acquisition Executives Office of Secretary of Defense (OSD) Industry Primes & Suppliers

  18. What are the Expectations? • Safe, effective,reliable, affordable products on time and within budget • Ownership of product health without legal wrangling • Realistic marketing and budget entries • Technical competencies to leverage leading edge technologies • Agility to surge or decrease production and respond to changing rule-sets

  19. Integrating & Rationalizing Improvement Efforts Sub-Functional Pillars Integrate and Rationalize for Workable Program Constructs

  20. Overarching Topics • Reliability • Joint Capabilities Integration & Development System (JCIDS) • Training / Certification Program • Networked Weapons • Open Architectures • M-Code – Next GPS Challenges

  21. Red Flags for Weapons Programs* • Relying on COTS/NDI to meet Robust Military Requirements • Systems Engineering – staffing and tasks • Going into SDD without RR or “SDD-readiness” phase • Lack of early wind tunnel and instrumented captive carry • Program Plans, Budget, IBR missing key elements • Explicit requirements/verification of captive carry and in-flight reliabilities and service life • Transition to Production • Reliability Growth program • Safety-of-flight analyses at design reviews • Contractors decline to make an offer • Back-loaded development budget *From Study of Troubled Weapon Programs 1997-2007

  22. High-Confidence ProgramsKey Characteristics* • Good “Should-Cost” Estimate • Budget/Cost Estimate alignment • Approved time-phased CDD requirements • Program office resourcing • Requirements stability • Budget stability mechanism • Incremental program plan • Short-duration capability release/production schedules • SDD phase no greater than 6 years • Tech maturity assessment thresholds met • Integrated sustainment and depot strategy • Realistic test planning, Approved IOT&E plan • Life-cycle acquisition strategy – time certain success incentive • Executing according to “plan” • Probability of Program Success (PoPS) measures * As Defined by Develop & Sustain Weapon Systems (D&SWS) design teams

  23. It’s the Engineering! Engineering -- design, verification, manufacturing, and quality, throughout voluminous supplier base -- determines fate of programs

  24. Team Dynamics Mixed messages from the Bosses & the “System” How do we use the Information? Is the Information Compelling? Warfighters Capability Needs Budget Choices Program Execution Team What’s In, What’s Out How Much Risk? Industry Engineers I CAN DO IT! DO YOU HEAR ME? NATURAL AMERICAN OPTIMISM COMPETITION FOR BUDGET FRAGMENTED AUTHORITIES (REQUIREMENTS, PROGRAMMING, ACQUISITION) START AGGRESSIVE SDD ASAP

  25. Proven Acquisition Approach SDD is where we spend most of the development dollars, and determine most of the production and sustainment costs for Weapons. • Structure ROBUSTSDD-ReadinessPhase to size a realistic SDD phase • Block requirements into increments - deliver in 3-6 year SDD phases • Execute SDD-Readiness contract(s) for each increment • Demonstrate technologies in robust environment • Mature design to PDR or later • Build SDD plan including Integrated Baseline Review (Design, V&V, OT, Transition to production and support) during readiness phase • Program funds to realistic cost estimate based on detailed SDD Plan and rigorous benchmarking • Conduct Rigorous Milestone A & B Reviews whether required or not Launch incremental and realistic SDD phases that position programs for long term success

  27. Overview • Organization • Execution • Our Journey to Excellence • Zero Based Documentation

  28. A Golden Opportunity AAC Zero Based Documentation Pilot Program

  29. Zero – Based Documentation Pilots at AAC • Pilot Programs Approved by Senior Acquisition Executive Memo 6 Nov 2007 • Retain the documents that the Program Manager needs • Consolidate other documents into Life Cycle Management Plan (LCMP) • Develop one each Systems Engineering Plan (SEP) and Risk Management Plan (RMP) for AAC • Declare compliance, variances and program specifics in LCMP • For the Pilot Programs, use QF-4 for QF-16 and Miniature Air Launched Decoy (MALD) for MALD-J • Allow Program Manager discretion on format, including the use of briefing charts

  30. What a Program Manager Needs to Run Programs • Requirements • Initial Capabilities Document (ICD) • Capability Development Document (CDD) • Capability Production Document (CPD) • Test & Evaluation Master Plan (TEMP) • Life Cycle Management Plan (LCMP) • Program Status • Earned Value Management System (EVMS) • Integrated Master Plan (IMP) • Integrated Master Schedule (IMS) • Technical Performance Measures

  31. Systems Engineering Assessment Cost Sufficiency Review Probability of Program Success (PoPS) Sufficiency Review Manufacturing Readiness Assessment Technology Readiness Assessment What AFPEO for WeaponsUses to Drive Portfolio Performance • Personal Interfaces • Acquisition Strategies & Baselines • IntegratedAssessment Tools • Status Reporting • Activity Reports • Monthly Acquisition Reviews • PEO Chats • Customer Relationships • Expectation Management Agreements

  32. Approach to Coordination for Pilot Programs • Approvals delegated as low as allowable • When required, approval chain is Group to PEO to SAE • AAC/ACE will codify distribution list that includes all current coordination/approval offices • Copies will be provided electronically FYI only • Offices will be given 2 working days to respond with CAT I and CAT II Deficiencies* if they choose to respond • AAC/ACE will maintain log through this process for learning * CAT I changes program content; CAT II needed for record or compliance with law/reg; CAT III comments and suggestions GOAL: Final approval of meaningful, quality documents within 2 weeks of PM release

  33. Expected Benefits • Put focus on Integrated Life Cycle Management • Allow workforce to focus on establishing and executing successful programs • Garner enthusiasm and pave way for standard work • Elevate our workforce from drudgery to innovation • Promote critical thinking and collaboration

  34. It’s a Journey Move our culture to one that warfighters and stakeholders can depend on for realistic expectations and high quality, high performing, affordable products. Vision: War Winning Capabilities…On Time, On Cost!

  35. It’s a Journey • Wouldn’t it be wonderful if the DoD had to develop a process to allocate the margin we did not spend each year instead of determining which programs to terminate or stretch out due to overruns? • Wouldn't it be wonderful if Combatant Commanders spoke of us, Industry and Government, as “those Acquisition people – the ones we can always count on…” War Winning Capabilities … On Time, On Cost … Cradle-to-Grave
