  1. Performance Based Contracting A USACE Perspective Presented by Michael W. Sydow, PE Chief, Environmental and IIS Management Branch USAED Savannah

  2. Why PBC • Government Performance and Results Act of 1993. • Federal Acquisition Streamlining Act of 1994. • Utilized successfully in private sector since the 70’s. • DOD Business Initiatives Council adopts concept in 2002. • ACSIM/ODEP deploy PBC as a matter of Army policy in 2003. • Defense Planning Guidance • Army Environmental Strategic Cleanup Plan • FUDS Program Policy (ER 200-3-1) 30Nov00same.ppt

  3. Why PBC • Current process employed to date is inherently phase focused and process driven. • Not viewing the problem in a holistic manner. • PBC is based on achieving an Exit Strategy • Incorporates Life Cycle Project Management. • Incorporates future land use planning. • Affords greater flexibility in meeting changing project requirements. 30Nov00same.ppt

  4. What PBC Does Not Do! • Does not change applicable laws or regulations. • Does not relieve DOD of it’s liability. • Does not negate Federal Facilities Agreements or Cooperative Agreements. • Does not eliminate the Partnering Concept. • Does not mean the contractor is turned loose with no technical or administrative oversight. It is simply a new Business Process! 30Nov00same.ppt

  5. PBC Defined • Objective is to define the “What” not the “How” • Focus on the End Point and not the Process. • Army Policy • Fixed Price Contracts only. • Incentives and Insurance may be applied based upon the amount of risk and uncertainty. • Competitive bid process with a minimum of three qualified vendors. • Can be used for all project phases, from RI through RAO and LTM. 30Nov00same.ppt

  6. FUDS Programmatic Goals • Funds Obligation • FY05 7.5% • FY06 15% • FY07 25% • FY10 50% • DPG Goals for Responses in Place (RIP) and Response Complete (RC) • FY07 High Relative Risk Sites • FY11 Medium Relative Risk Sites • FY20 Low Relative Risk Sites 30Nov00same.ppt

  7. FUDS Challenges • Budget Limitations • Averages $250M per FY. • Number of States and Territories competing for funds. • Number of eligible sites competing for funds. • Private Property Owners • Potentially Responsible Party (PRP) Issues • Competition for Regulatory Agency resources • New Business Process 30Nov00same.ppt

  8. USACE Initiatives • Developed and deployed PBC Training • Established USACE Contract Acquisition Working Group • Developing national contract strategies. • Share Lessons Learned. • Leverage resources from across USACE. • Obtained Industry input. • Developing After Action Reports for established contracts • Participate in Interagency Forums 30Nov00same.ppt

  9. How Do We Make It Work? • Proper Project Planning • Site selection. • Sound Performance Work Statement with Measurable Performance Standards. • Development of Transition Plan from current contract actions to PBC. • Engage the Regulatory Community • Includes Planning and Contract Acquisition phases. • Educate the entire Team • What changes, what doesn’t, and what are the impacts? • Roles and Responsibilities. 30Nov00same.ppt

  10. How Do We Make It Work? • Communication must be open and continuous • Need a well developed Project Management Plan that clearly identifies Exit Strategies and Major Milestone Dates. • May require frequent Project Meetings and/or Teleconferences. • Allows all Team Member organizations to determine and plan resource requirements. • Seek process efficiencies • Number, type and format of submittals. • Concurrent reviews. • Authority for approval. 30Nov00same.ppt
