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 What is a Unit Effectiveness Inspection (UEI)? USAFE/IG inspections contain 2 distinct components: 1) Validation/verification of Wg/CC’s CCIP Will inspect compliance areas (task evals, MICT, program reviews, interviews, audits, exercises, etc) 2) 4 Major Graded Areas (MGAs): Managing Resources, Leading People, Improving the Unit & Executing the Mission May include interviews w/Airmen at many levels, audits, observation, pre-visit data-mining and others to answer these basic 7 questions: 5 Are units properly manned? Are units properly trained? Are units properly resourced? Are units ready and proficient? Is the leadership climate effective? How is the quality of life? Are units disciplined and compliant? UEI is a change in focus for MAJCOM/IGs, not Functional Managers or Wg/CCs

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 Key USAFE Takeaways New inspection system returns the inspection business back to empowered Wing CCs Current paradigm: MAJCOM IG inspects to “see if the wing’s maintainer is turning the wrench correctly” New paradigm: MAJCOM IG inspects to “ensure the Wg/CC is aware the maintainer is turning the wrench correctly” Resourcing Wg CCIP is the biggest challenge – this remains a high interest item for AF Corporate process 9
