AFLCMC… Providing the Warfighter’s Edge Current Big “A” Acquisition Process Converts Monopsony to Monopoly Requirements Process 1. Assess Gaps 2. Assess Capabilities 3. Identify Requirement 4. Prioritize Needs in POM process Budget Process 1. Set priorities for POM/APOM 2. Develop POM/APOM submission 3. Submit POM/APOM Acquisition Process 1. Receive Requirement & Budget 2. Determine Acquisition Strategy 3. Negotiate Procurement (sole source or competitive) or exercise options 4. Award contract Program Trade offs Capability Trade offs PEs by Program Sole Source No Trade Off Trade Offs Made When Quality of Data is Lowest (Unrealistic Expectations)

AFLCMC… Providing the Warfighter’s Edge Proposed Big “A” Acquisition Process Turning Monopoly back to Monopsony 1. Assess Gaps 2. Assess Capabilities 3. Establish Capability Mix Required 4. Set MPQs by Program Set Amount for Single Weapons PE ACC/AQP/PEO make final portfolio buy decision from Executable Proposals Capability Trade offs Program Trade offs Acquisition Trade offs RequirementsBudgetAcquisition Single Buyer Flexibility Maintained Throughout Integrated Process

AFLCMC… Providing the Warfighter’s Edge Affordable, Sustainable, Producible, Universal Design (ASPUD) Benefits –Affordability Dial down requirements when not needed, change out components based on target set (allows limited use of high $ assets) Facilitates commonality across systems, decreases unit cost –Quick Reaction for Urgent Needs Flexible Interface allows for increased technology insertion Decreases Lead Times for Development of New Components Encourages Innovation –Aids Ability to Meet Competition & SB Goals Allows for increased competition at component level Resets Market Conditions to Monopsony from Monopoly May Allow for Greater SB Participation –Ex. Proliferation of SB Apple Apps –Changes the Business Model Potential for Decreased Development Costs DA Family of Weapons MK-84 (2000 lb) BLU-109 (2000 lb) MK-83 (1000 lb) MK-82 (500 lb) Tailkit SDB LJDAM Business Model Changes But Still Sustainable “Winner Take All” to “Market Share By Portfolio”

AFLCMC… Providing the Warfighter’s Edge Barriers to Acq Innovation at Eglin Inertia of C,S,P focus and PM-level incentives Strong defense contractors wed to “winner take all” Manning and talent mix off-limits Gerbil Cage Fear of failure 16
