TAKE AWAYS

• WORK ENVIRONMENT REMAINS CHALLENGING, YET TOOLS ARE AVAILABLE

• WITHOUT ‘BIG PICTURE’ CONTEXT, ANY PATH MIGHT BE ‘TOO LONG A PATH’ FOR DELIVERY

• DEVELOPMENT AND SUSTAINING TOOLS ARE AVAILABLE

• OTT (DUSD(AS&C)) ‘FAMILY OF TOOLS’ ADDRESSES MULTIPLE STAGES OF LIFE CYCLE TOTAL OWNERSHIP COSTS

• EXAMPLES – NAVAL AND COMMERCIAL

• HOW THE TOOLS ARE USED HAS FUTURE IMPACT

EVOLVING OSD POLICY

Page 8: MANAGEMENT AND INTRODUCTION OF … · MANAGEMENT AND INTRODUCTION OF TECHNOLOGY - AN OSD OFFICE OF TECHNOLOGY TRANSITION PERSPECTIVE ... • DoD 5000-Series Emphasis on Evolutionary

TECHNOLOGY TREND• DoD facing:

– A changing threat– An explosion of technological

advances around the globe– An ever increasing growth in

commercial R&D compared to defense spending

• These changes demand new ways for the DoD to develop and acquire technology– Greater exploitation of

commercial technologyinvestment

– Ability to more rapidly transition technology investments

The Need for Transformation

“The United States will … transform America’s national security institutions to meet the challenges and opportunities of the twenty-first century.”

President George W. Bush,September 2002

“The Department currently is pursuingtransformational business and planning practices such as adaptive planning, a more entrepreneurial, future-oriented capabilities- based resource allocation process, accelerated acquisition cycles built on spiral development, out-put based management, and a reformed analytic support agenda.”

Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld,Transformation Planning GuidanceApril 2003

DoD Leadership’s IntentFor DoD 5000 Revision

Revised Policy Objectives• Encourage innovation and flexibility• Permit greater judgment in the employment of acquisition

principles• Focus on outcomes vice process• Empower PM’s to use the system vice being hampered by

over-regulation

“….create an acquisition policy environment that fosters efficiency, flexibility, creativity, and innovation.”

COMMERICAL OPERATIONS & SUPPORT SAVINGS INIATIVE (COSSI)

Purpose:Purpose:• Provide funding for the nonrecurring

engineering, testing, & qualification needed to insert a commercial technology into a legacy system

• Increase readiness and reduce operations and support costs of legacy systems

Example: Helicopter Integrated Mechanical Diagnostic Example: Helicopter Integrated Mechanical Diagnostic --Health & Usage Monitoring SystemHealth & Usage Monitoring System

• Issue: Current Diagnostics are Done Manually - Labor Intensive, Inexact, Leading to Unnecessary Removals

• Solution: Adapt Commercial System that Automatically Collects & Analyzes In-Flight Data

RECOMMENDATIONS

• Establish a Skunkworks Champion and use some Skunkworks within the organization work force.

• Have a Director of Revolution for shifting organization personnel.

• Make submissions of proposals for technology transition programs a performance factor.

• Have Warfighters and Combatant Commanders evaluate Program Managers and Program Manager Organization.
