    1. 1 JCA Baseline Reassessment Update 26 June 2007

    2. Purpose Provide status of JCA Baseline Reassessment to the Joint Concept Steering Group

    3. Guidance on Intent

    4. What Problem Does JCAs Address? DOD processes currently talk in five different languages… Policy talks in terms of strategic priorities Programming talks in terms of appropriations and PEs Planning talks in terms of force packages Acquisition talks in terms of cost, schedule and performance parameters Requirements talks in terms of capabilities and gaps You cannot have an enterprise-wide capabilities-based strategy-to-task discussion without a common language JCAs have provided a rudimentary language which have some traction, but fall short of being …. The five processes in the building all speak in different tongues When the QDR report comes down from the 3rd deck, it’s still in Latin We’ve got Adam Smith writing in terms of appropriations We’ve got Clauswitz still requesting armor formationsThe five processes in the building all speak in different tongues When the QDR report comes down from the 3rd deck, it’s still in Latin We’ve got Adam Smith writing in terms of appropriations We’ve got Clauswitz still requesting armor formations

    5. JCA Use Policy: QDR used capability framework, but not JCAs; possible language for aligning strategy to outcomes Planning: Underpins operational planning; enables current and future planners to discuss forces in preferred capability package terms; linking plans to resources (LPTR) Programming: Defense Data Warehouse maps JCAs to PEs; provides investment insight Requirements: Facilitates portfolio management; facilitates IPL gap prioritization; enables risk assessment and investment discussions (tradeoff analysis) Acquisition: Too much overlap (MMT); facilitates development & prioritization of IPLs & capability roadmaps

    6. Current JCA Problems Multiple capability categories (functions, operations, domains, institutional) led to: Significant overlaps across the JCAs Complex framework with potentially unlimited growth Lack of process discipline during development resulted in uneven/insufficient decomposition Consciously excluded DoD corporate support capabilities by focusing on CJTF commander requirements We have identified four major problems with the current JCAs preventing more wide-spread Departmental use: The first two are a result of mixing different capability categories in a single framework – they are overlap and complexity. The uneven and insufficient decomposition was a result of 21 different committees building the current JCA taxonomy and lexicon. The process lacked discipline. The forth came from a conscious decision to focus on the warfighter. While it was a noble purpose, it ignored a multitude of DoD’s capabilities the warfighter relies on.

    7. Approach Methodology Categorize the JCA Framework Functionally Minimizes overlap Simplifies framework; reduces top level to a manageable number Supports Joint Defense Capabilities Study original intent Aligns closely with FCB structure Aligns closely with JP 3-0 enduring functions More enduring; less apt to change due to new technologies or emerging threats Use standardized rules for uniform decomposition Expand JCA Framework to include all DOD capabilities The JCA Baseline Reassessment will: Align the JCAs in a functional framework… - Supports original intent of the Aldridge Study, - Aligns more closely with FCB structure than current JCA structure, - Simplifies the framework, - Minimizes overlap (categories) Establish business rules to uniformly decompose JCAs to a more usable level for planning and investment decisions Include all DoD Capabilities The JCA Baseline Reassessment will: Align the JCAs in a functional framework… - Supports original intent of the Aldridge Study, - Aligns more closely with FCB structure than current JCA structure, - Simplifies the framework, - Minimizes overlap (categories) Establish business rules to uniformly decompose JCAs to a more usable level for planning and investment decisions Include all DoD Capabilities

    8. Process Participants Joint Staff Services FCBs OSD The baseline reassessment process began shortly after the JROC endorsed the JCA way ahead Phase zero of the 3-phase process focused on writing a terms of reference to guide the overall effort, and accomplishing the analysis to inform it We are in phase 1 where we are concentrating on developing the functional top level JCAs The final phase is dedicated to the hard work of decomposing the top level JCAs in a disciplined and uniform manner that will result in a much more efficient, and thereby usable, framework We have included all stakeholders, some via FCB representation. We considered all view points to build upon two years of practical JCA experience We developed the top level JCA criteria as a result of our analysis and team recommendations during six-month phase zero processThe baseline reassessment process began shortly after the JROC endorsed the JCA way ahead Phase zero of the 3-phase process focused on writing a terms of reference to guide the overall effort, and accomplishing the analysis to inform it We are in phase 1 where we are concentrating on developing the functional top level JCAs The final phase is dedicated to the hard work of decomposing the top level JCAs in a disciplined and uniform manner that will result in a much more efficient, and thereby usable, framework We have included all stakeholders, some via FCB representation.

    17. JCA Baseline Reassessment Phase 2 This is an expanded view of phase 2. Once we have DAWG approval on the top level JCAs, we will invite the appropriate stakeholders to help us build on the current structure by functionally aligning current tier 2 JCAs in the new framework. The logistics community has signed up for the first session. We will no-doubt learn some lessons from this first effort that we will integrate and apply to all subsequent sessions to ensure a uniform and consistent productThis is an expanded view of phase 2.

    20. JCA COA Cross-walk

    21. Joint Defense Capabilities Study - recommended one capability category plus an institutional category to cover all capabilities AT&L Matrix Mapping Tool - showed significant overlaps Senior leader guidance - simplify framework JCA survey - highlighted need to simplify framework and significantly reduce overlap JCA analytical study - (NSWCDD) showed framework inefficiencies and recommended a functional framework to eliminate redundancy and overlap Problem Validation Joint Defense Capabilities Study recommended using a single capability category to catalog the Department’s capabilities – as indicated in the previous slide, the current JCAs are a collection of four different categories AT&L’s Matrix Mapping Tool was the first analysis done on the JCAs, and it highlighted significant overlap JCA survey was conducted during the initial baseline reassessment phase, and it highlights the need to simplify framework the framework and significantly reduce the overlap JCA analytical study was accomplished by Naval Surface Warfare Center Division Dahlgren, and it recommended a functional JCA framework to significantly reduce overlap Joint Defense Capabilities Study recommended using a single capability category to catalog the Department’s capabilities – as indicated in the previous slide, the current JCAs are a collection of four different categories AT&L’s Matrix Mapping Tool was the first analysis done on the JCAs, and it highlighted significant overlap JCA survey was conducted during the initial baseline reassessment phase, and it highlights the need to simplify framework the framework and significantly reduce the overlap JCA analytical study was accomplished by Naval Surface Warfare Center Division Dahlgren, and it recommended a functional JCA framework to significantly reduce overlap

    22. JCA Baseline Reassessment Time Line This illustrates the overall baseline reassessment timeline. As you can see, we expect to conclude phase 1 with the DAWG brief on June 5th, and we are aiming to complete the overall process with a DAWG approval brief in Oct of this year. I’ll break this down in the next two chartsThis illustrates the overall baseline reassessment timeline.

    23. JCA Baseline Reassessment Phase 1 This is an expanded view of phase 1. The red dot is today, and as you can see we pulsed the IR&G EXCOM for their input to the proposed top level JCAs, and I’ll share their views in the next few slides.This is an expanded view of phase 1.

    24. JCA Intent

    25. DSD JCA Direction Following the JCA Progress Report briefing to the JROC on 24 Aug 06, the recommended JCA way ahead was endorsed by the JROC and forwarded by the Vice Chairman to the DepSecDef for his approval. Among the recommendations was the need to do a holistic JCA baseline reassessment, which the DepSecDef directed. At about the same time, he also directed that the Institutional Reform and Governance working group leverage the work being done by the JCA Baseline Reassessment, and expand the JCAs to include all DoD capabilities. This effectively merged the two efforts.Following the JCA Progress Report briefing to the JROC on 24 Aug 06, the recommended JCA way ahead was endorsed by the JROC and forwarded by the Vice Chairman to the DepSecDef for his approval.
