  1. Association of Defense Communities2013 Defense Communities National Summit Maj Gen Tim Byers The Civil Engineer 12 June 2013

  2. Air Force Priorities CSAF Focus Win the Fight Strengthen the Team Shape the Future Air Force Core Missions • Air & Space Superiority • Global Strike: Able to hold any target at risk • Responsive intelligence, surveillance& reconnaissance • Rapid Global Mobility:Able to move people & cargo anywhere in the world • Command & Control: to conduct operations rapidly, effectively, & efficiently Installations Underpin These Priorities and Core Missions Continue to strengthen the nuclear enterprise Partner with the joint & coalition team to win today’s fight Develop and care for Airmen & their families Modernize our air and space inventories, organizations and training Recapture acquisition excellence 2

  3. Air Force Civil EngineerStrategic Goals Build to Last … Lead the Change Build Ready Engineers Provide more effective Civil Engineer expeditionary and emergency response and management capabilities to meet current and emerging Air Force and CCDR requirements. Build Great Leaders Access, develop, organize, enable, and retain a trained and capable Total Force Civil Engineer team ready to meet current and emergent mission requirements. Build Sustainable Installations Develop sustainable installations by implementing asset management principles for built and natural assets. 3

  4. What We Own – The Big Picture 161 Air Force Installations 9M Acres of Land 3 x Connecticut 184M Yds2 of Pavement 229 x DFW Airport (American Airlines hub) 74,500 Family Homes CE Plant Replacement Value Same as Alexandria, VA $240B PRV 66,300 Dorm Rooms 615M Ft2 of Buildings Greater than Toyota’s Annual Revenue 3 x Target Corp. 2 x hotel rooms at Disney World The Air Force Installation is a Force Enabler

  5. Air Force Civil EngineersEnable Air Force Core Missions “Air bases are a determining factor in the success of air operations. The two-legged stool of men and planes would topple over without this equally important third leg.” General of the Air Force Henry H. “Hap” Arnold • Installations • Power projection platforms--CONUS, OCONUS, expeditionary • Enable air & space superiority • Provide infrastructure necessary to hold targets at risk anywhere across the globe • Facilitate ISR exploitation • Host robust C2 networks • Build partnerships with allies & developing nations by forward basing US forces

  6. Resourcing In “New Normal” • History of budget decreases after major conflicts • Must be prepared to make difficult, but informed decisions • We need an installation campaign plan to win the “fight” Post-Korean War Post-Vietnam War Post-Cold War Sequestration ~10% or -$15.4B/yr 6

  7. Build Sustainable Installations Air Force Priorities - Mapping AF to ACS CFLI to CE • Sustainment • Maintenance & Repair • Utilities • Reduce Energy Liabilities Efficiently resource to enable Defense Strategic Guidance • Prime BEEF & RED HORSE • Fire & Emergency Services • Explosive Ordnance Disposal • Emergency Management Minimize excess infrastructure through aggressive consolidation/demolition Preserve installation capabilities, maximize cost effectiveness, and protect installations Enable full spectrum ACS Readiness to execute Defense Strategy Air Force Key Themes/ Strategic Messages Civil Engineer Execution Agile Combat Support Core Function Lead Integrator Core Capabilities • New Mission MILCON • Demolition/Unspecified MILCON • Transfer to local authority Establish Installations Ensuring our smaller Air Force is READY to execute the strategy Sustain/Operate Installations “Readiness” Recover Installations Ensuring our Air Force is CAPABLE of executing the strategy “Force Structure” Dispose/Consolidate Installations Ensuring our Air Force is VIABLE to execute the strategy over the long term “Modernization” Build Sustainable Installations

  8. How Can Industry Help? Help Us Find Efficient Ways to Build Sustainable Installations • 3rd Party Financing (P4, EULs, ESPCs, EUSCs, etc) • High-Performance Project Delivery: • At fair cost….at the right quality…and on time • Share best practices – we want to leverage your expertise in technology, construction, maintenance and ops to be more efficient • Get “Back to Basics” while developing new strategies & capitalizing on new technologies that help us build sustainable facilities/infrastructure • Use less energy…facility, process, mission, and operational • Require less manpower…use asset mgt principles, risk-based analysis • Lower life-cycle costs • More efficient…yet effective (not more with less but less with less) • Small Businesses are key partners
