    6. 6 DDESB History Congressionally mandated in 1928 Based on 1926 Lake Denmark incident Joint Board of Officers appointed Prevent endangerment to life/property from ammunition storage DoDIG recommended changes in 2003 Develop DoD ESM strategic plan Establish & oversee comprehensive DoD ESM Restructure DDESB to independent, objective full time body Update directive (DoDD 6055.9)

    7. 7 DDESB Mission Mission – to develop, implement, & maintain Effective DoD Explosives safety management program (ESMP) Purpose of ESMP Reduce probability and consequences of mishaps Involving DoD military munitions Other encumbering explosives Protect people, property, and the environment Sustain operational capabilities and readiness

    8. 8 DDESB Pillars Establish DoD ESM requirements and technical criteria Oversee Components’ ESM programs Provide Technical expertise to Components & strategic partners Advise OSD, Component leadership, & others ESMP progress/challenges annually

    9. 9 What is Transformation? What Is Transformation? Transformation within the Department of Defense is an effort that requires the active participation of all major components of the organization. The Department describes transformation as: A process that shapes the changing nature of military competition and cooperation through new combinations of concepts, capabilities, people and organizations that exploit our nation’s advantages and protect against our asymmetric vulnerabilities to sustain our strategic position, which helps underpin peace and stability in the world. (Transformation Planning Guidance, April 2003, p. 3) First and foremost, transformation is a continuing process. It does not have an end point. Transformation anticipates and creates the future and deals with the co-evolution of concepts, processes, organizations, and technology. Profound change in any one of these areas necessitates change in all. Transformation creates new competitive areas and competencies and identifies, leverages, or creates new underlying principles for the way things are done. Transformation also identifies and leverages new sources of power. The overall objective of these changes is to sustain U.S. competitive advantage in warfare. Military transformation is about changing the culture of the U.S. Armed Forces. Therefore, transformational activity must facilitate a culture of change and innovation in order to maintain competitive advantage in the information age. That culture must foster leadership, education, processes, organizations, values, and attitudes that encourage and reward meaningful innovation. Individually and institutionally, holding on to the past is a result of the natural need to define order in the midst of instability. Individuals and institutions tend to follow what they know and do best because past success becomes the safest predictor of survival in the face of uncertainty. What Is Transformation?

    12. 12 Explosives Safety Management & the DDESB DoDD 6055.9E DEPSECDEF re-issued 19 Aug 2005 Defines ESM and continues the DDESB Authorizes DUSD (I&E) to issue DoD 6055.9-STD Shifts DDESB focus Installation level survey activity to programmatic review authority DDESB continues limited/focused surveys Primarily Component-level HQ ESMP reviews Assist Components COCOMs use DDESB expertise – “grow” ESMP Need to integrate explosives safety into operational culture DDESB to support COCOMs as requested/required War planning evaluation/assistance In theater technical support/storage plan assistance

    13. 13 Consistent with peacetime, contingency, or wartime operational requirements and corresponding DoD military munitions requirements, it is DoD policy to: 4.1. Provide the maximum possible protection to people and property from the potential damaging effects of DoD military munitions (explosive and chemical) minimum safety standards. 4.2. Comply with reference (c) and, when outside the United States, comply with host nation, multinational, or U.S. explosives safety standards, whichever are more stringent unless standards applicability is mandated by international agreement. 4.3. Develop quantitative risk-based explosives safety assessment tools and criteria and utilize such as decision-making aids when appropriate. 4.4. Minimize exposures consistent with safe and efficient operations (i.e., expose the minimum number of people for the minimum time to the minimum amount of explosives or chemical agents). Explosives Safety Management & the DDESB DoDD 6055.9E - POLICY

    14. 14 Explosives Safety Management & the DDESB DoDD 6055.9E – POLICY continued 4.5. Enhance readiness and mission capability by providing for ESM considerations throughout the military munitions life-cycle. 4.6. Implement and maintain effective ESM programs within the DoD Components. 4.7. Prohibit the disposal (e.g., burying, dumping) of DoD military munitions on land or in water except when specifically authorized by the Head of the DoD Component concerned or his or her designee. 4.8. Give precedence to ESM principles and requirements that provide for immediate protection of people and property while complying with applicable environmental regulations. 4.9. Conduct appropriate munitions response actions on real property that are known or suspected to contain munitions and explosives of concern, according to appropriate environmental law…

    25. 25 DDESB Process Reengineering DDESB actively engaged in DoD’s Business Transformation BT aligns transformation priorities to a set of "business value-added measures" to ensure investments are articulated and measured against tangible business value to the Department DDESB (via BPR) Phase I Concentrates on Explosives Safety Site Plan BPR Methodology Developed draft with DDESB staff Developed using and supported by DDESB 6055.9-STD Addresses one finding of 2003 Inspector General (IG) Report Validated at DDESB Board Business Meeting Board Service representatives / alternates in attendance Service safety center technical representatives in attendance The Defense Business Systems Management Committee (DBSMC), the Investment Review Boards (IRBs) and the Components will use several transformation tools to make system investment decisions and transition to the Department's future information infrastructure that will provide flexible and responsive business and financial support. These tools include the ETP, the BEA and a systems compliance checklist. The ETP and BEA are linked. Specific objects within the BEA are associated with the transformation efforts of the Department as outlined in the ETP. The architecture objects linked to the ETP are: Business Capabilities, Operational Activities, System Entities (Systems/Initiatives), and System Functions. The ETP gives the Department a comprehensive management tool for business modernization, with measurable plans, schedules, and budgets. The ETP is guided by a focused and adaptable Business Enterprise Architecture. The current defense transformation planning products are as follows: September 2006 Enterprise Transition Plan The BEA is the enterprise architecture for the DoD information infrastructure, and includes processes, data, data standards, business rules, operating requirements, and information exchanges. This framework is provided through a set of integrated DoD Architecture Framework (DoDAF) products, including Operational, Technical Standards, System, and All View products. The BEA defines, from a technical perspective, the Department’s business transformation priorities, the business capabilities required to support those priorities, and the combinations of systems and initiatives that enable these capabilities. The suite of BEA products is as follows: Business Enterprise Architecture (BEA) 4.0 The Defense Business Systems Management Committee (DBSMC), the Investment Review Boards (IRBs) and the Components will use several transformation tools to make system investment decisions and transition to the Department's future information infrastructure that will provide flexible and responsive business and financial support.
