Focus Areas • Identify and Manage Risk • Probability of Success • Sufficiency Reviews • Program Reviews
Identify and Manage Risk • Standard processes integral part of doing business • Activity before Risk ID is standard work with defined solutions • Expanding the suite of tools to ID and Analyze risk WBS Risk Cube Sufficiency Reviews PoPS PMRs
Probability of Program Success Intent • Agreed-to risk levels documented and recorded • Don’t shoot messenger when program encounters problems • Predictive metrics can identify watch areas to a PM before problem erupts • Better prediction of future issues • Ability to look at scoring trends over time Program Take Aways • Beginning to institutionalize • Windshield chart affects decisions on resources • Trend of red to green as mitigation plans implemented • Synergy generated by effective assessments • Audits since June raising confidence • Focused program priorities
Sufficiency Reviews Investment • 22 reviews in 2007 • Program reviewed by about 40 senior and experienced experts • Approx 5000 man hours in reviews Issues Identified • Cost risk in planning for averages • Need specific exit criteria • Test schedule and resources • Sustainment planning • Production phasing • Leadership awareness of resource requirements Benefits • Realistic planning early • Instills discipline • Encourages communication between functionals • Forums for exchanging best practices • Gives team a clear vector • More efficient ASP—Establishes baseline “Plans are nothing; planning is everything” Dwight D. Eisenhower
Integrating Program and Cost Risk • Integrate “risk cube” and PoPS into cost estimate • Dependencies between WBS elements • Specific risks determine funding for confidence • Monte Carlo simulation • Better risk ID and modeling $
PMR “Deep Dives” • Conducted by Wing Director/SPDs—1 per Wk • Each Program Reviewed Every 12 Weeks • Program Manager’s Format • Areas Reviewed: Schedule, Financials, Risks, PoPS Action Plans • Raises leadership awareness—addresses PMs needs • Foundation for Advising PEO
Industry’s Role • Robust Systems Engineering • Vendor and Supplier Management • Reliable, Quality Products • Cost and Schedule Realism
