1 I n t e g r i t y - S e r v i c e - E x c e l l e n c e Headquarters U.S. Air Force Washington Perspective AFA Technology Symposium Lt Gen Mark Shackelford Military Deputy to the Assistant Secretary of the Air Force (Acquisition)

2 I n t e g r i t y - S e r v i c e - E x c e l l e n c e Current Climate Win Todays fight – we cannot afford to waste resources Capability to the warfighter – shorten the time-line Emphasis on the front end of the acquisition process 2... Modernization programs have sought a 99 percent solution over a period of years, rather than a 75 percent solution over a period of weeks or months. – Secretary Gates, testimony to Congress, Jan 09 Once a program begins, it too often moves forward with inadequate technology, design, testing, and manufacturing knowledge, making it impossible to successfully execute the program within established cost, schedule, and performance targets. – GAO report to Congress, Mar 09

3 I n t e g r i t y - S e r v i c e - E x c e l l e n c e Air Force 2008-2010 Strategic Plan Reinvigorate AF Nuclear Enterprise Reinvigorate AF Nuclear Enterprise Win Todays Fight Win Todays Fight Develop & Care for Airmen & Families Develop & Care for Airmen & Families Modernizing Aging Air & Space Inventories Modernizing Aging Air & Space Inventories Recapture Acquisition Excellence Recapture Acquisition Excellence USAF Flight Path Recapture Acquisition Excellence: Revitalize the Air Force acquisition workforce Improve requirements generation process Instill budget and financial discipline Improve Air Force major systems source selections Establish clear lines of authority and accountability within acquisition organizations 3

4 I n t e g r i t y - S e r v i c e - E x c e l l e n c e Workforce Initiatives 4 Fill vacant positions Expedited Hiring Authority enables AFMC to hire faster Increase authorizations NDAA Sec 852 funds Interns, Co-ops, Journeymen, HQEs FY10 POM funds 2062 new positions OSD directed 4865 new hires / contractor to civilian conversions Make them competent Sec 852 funds increased DAU course offerings / seats, AFIT degrees, tuition assistance Focus is on contracting, cost estimation/analysis, systems engineering, program management, counsel

5 I n t e g r i t y - S e r v i c e - E x c e l l e n c e Requirements Initiatives Involve developmental planners, systems engineers, and testers in the requirements development process To ensure testable, achievable, evaluable requirements AFMC/CC & SAE attest to requirements parallel to AFROCC Require incremental block development strategies Minimize KPPs to only those absolutely necessary Ensure traceability of requirements from RFP to SRD to CDD/CPD to what the warfighter really asked for Use Configuration Steering Board to address requirements changes – recommendations approved by CSAF & MAJCOM/CC Include cost / schedule consideration for scope increase 5

6 I n t e g r i t y - S e r v i c e - E x c e l l e n c e Funding Initiatives Program actions: Seek higher fidelity cost estimates Establish proper level of funding through program ADM Baseline program with post-PDR understanding of risk Informed by competitive prototyping Fund baseline to appropriate confidence level for program phase Stabilize funding through Corporate churn with SAE involvement Industry actions: Assess and control rising overhead rates Match profit to risk and performance Demand & use higher fidelity Earned Value Management data 6

7 I n t e g r i t y - S e r v i c e - E x c e l l e n c e Source Selection Initiatives Improve source selection evaluation teams (SSETs) SAE & Chief of Contracting approve key SSET leaders Seek source selection experienced individuals Improve training including recent lessons learned Consider dedicated source selection cadre Provide independent reviews at AF and OSD levels (ACAT 1D) Improve pre-MS B acquisition planning leading to better RFPs and high success source selections Require extensive A5R/MAJCOM/program office collaboration Simplify the source selection process 7

8 I n t e g r i t y - S e r v i c e - E x c e l l e n c e Organizational Initiatives Assess organizations in light of CSAF direction Wing – 1000, Group – 400, Squadron – 35 Assess contribution of Wing/Group/Squadron to acquisition Adjust as necessary Assess and adjust overtasking of Program Executive Officers Identify where dedicated PEOs are necessary 8

9 I n t e g r i t y - S e r v i c e - E x c e l l e n c e As of:9 AF FY09 PB: $117.0 B Recapitalization/ Modernization $41.6 B RDT&E by Capability Procurement by Capability Air Force Budget, FY10 (FY09 PB vs. FY10 PB) Other: Logistics, Installation Support, Personnel & Training, Comm & Info, C2/Cyber AF FY10 PB: $115.6 B Recapitalization/ Modernization $41.1 B (Includes $0.7B for RDT&E Civ Pay)

10 I n t e g r i t y - S e r v i c e - E x c e l l e n c e AF Technology Challenges Decreasing procurement dollars RDT&E effort even more important Rigorous technology development a must Critical to AF corporate process and senior leaders Clarify the best use of funding – is 80% solution better? Milestone A – do the hard work early Up to 80% of life cycle cost is determined during concept refinement and requirements generation Identify risk – cost, technical, integration, manufacturing, sustainment Protect Technological Edge Senior Leaders committed to protecting technology investments 10
