  8. OSD –AT&L Risk Management Guide • Background – New Risk Management Guide written by System Engineering organization within OSD AT&L • Initially released for comment within DoD • Subsequent comments requested from PMI A&D SIG members with “fluent working knowledge of Defense and National Security Space acquisitions” • Was not specifically sent to DAU RM CoP members, PMI Risk SIG, or Industry for comment • Underlying premise addressed in this guide • “Many technical issues can be traced to managing of consequences as opposed to managing risk root causes, tracking risks as opposed to mitigating risks, and not integrating technical risk mitigation into overall risk management.” • In its current form, the RM Guide doesn’t support our IPM initiative

  9. OSD –AT&L Risk Management Guide (2) • Review of guide revealed • Quantitative analysis of risk isn’t addressed • Opportunities aren’t addressed • Focuses on technical risk • Lacks references to other policy/guidance documents, both government and industry • Contains no mention of process integration • RM/EVM integration is critical to improving the acquisition process • Risk quantification is critical to linking EVM and RM • These comments and others presented by John Driessnack to Col. Anderson at OSD-ATL and meeting arranged with Robert Skalamera, Debbie Tomsic, Mike Zsak, NDIA PMSC WG members (Driessnack/Abba), and PMI RM SIG representatives to discuss them

  10. OSD –AT&L Risk Management Guide (3) • Meeting resulted in agreement by Robert Skalamera to consider comments of PMI Risk SIG and NDIA PMSC WG • Comments requested in one week’s time • Risk SIG invited to comment directly (Hulett and Driessnack are doing so) • NDIA PMSC comments to be sent to Debbie Tomsic within a week

  11. Future Plans • Resolve how/where to provide contract-level process guidance that is still needed • Determine training approach and develop action plan • Continue IPM advocacy role • Foster established working relationships with APM, RM SIG, College of Scheduling, and others • Continue to provide a forum for discussion/new ideas • Promote new ideas that further or improve IPM to NDIA PMSC to obtain action or sponsorship

  12. Discussion • Questions or comments? • Suggestions/other topics that should be added to the working group’s long-term agenda? • New ideas, in furtherance of IPM, for consideration by the working group?
