  4. All DAU vs LOG Comparison FY07-FY09 6.60 6.63 6.69 6.57 6.70 6.76 6.12 6.16 6.17 6.06 6.18 6.26 5.90 5.91 5.93 5.88 5.95 5.99 5.78 5.89 5.83 5.94 5.80 5.92 5.95 5.95 5.92 5.92 5.97 5.98 5.73 5.84 5.84 5.80 5.76 5.77

  5. Major Challenges ImpactingLife Cycle Logistics Career Field • New Competencies • May 2008 DoD Logistics Human Capital Strategy (HCS) • Substantially larger competency set necessitating major updates to and expansion of DAU learning assets • Workforce Growth • FY07-09 Steady Increase in LOG Workforce Size (+1,708) • FY10 DLA adding 2,344 positions into LCL workforce (+2,344) • FY10 USAF Life Cycle Logistics Workforce Reconstitution Team (+1,400) • Training Demand • Substantial increase in demand for DAU courses as workforce grows by 25-30 percent over next 12-18 months • NOT specifically in-sourcing or new hires, but planned recoding of DLA and USAF personnel into DAW from existing DoD logistics workforce • DoD Product Support Assessment Team (PSAT) Report • New weapon system sustainment business model • Likely will drive further reengineering of DAU Logistics curricula

  6. Challenge #1: New Life Cycle Logistics Competencies

  7. New Competency Set Necessitates Major Changes to DAU Life Cycle Logistics Curricula Logistics Design Influence Forecasting and Demand Planning Maintenance Operations (includes depot maintenance) Physical Distribution/ Transportation Operations Integrated Logistics Support Planning Supply Planning Production & Support Deployment Planning Product Support & Sustainment Sourcing Configuration Management Reliability and Maintainability Analysis Inventory Management Technical/Product Data Management Supportability Analysis SUPPLY MANAGEMENT MAINTENANCE SUPPORT DEPLOYMENT/ DISTRIBUTION/ TRANSPORTATION LIFE CYCLE LOGISTICS Bottom line: Support the Warfighter!

  8. Life Cycle Logistics Lies Within Both AT&L Acquisition & Broader DoD Logistics Communities Deployment/ Distribution/ Transportation Property Mgt OSD Product Support Assessment Team (PSAT) driving toward greater horizontal & vertical integration Purchasing Contracting DoD Logistics Community ~615K personnel Program Mgt Supply Management Maintenance Support Life Cycle Logistics PQM LCL Community ~13,361 personnel BCEFM SPRDE – S&T AT&L (Acquisition) Community SPRDE - SE T&E IT Mgt FE Audit

  12. Level III Certification Level I Certification LOG 101 Acquisition Logistics Fundamentals ACQ 101 Fundamentals of Systems Acquisition Management P LOG 340 Performance Based Life Cycle Sustainment 30 hrs, on-line P LOG 102 Systems Sustainment Management 8.5 days classroom 2 Continuous Learning Modules: PBL & Designing for Supportability LOG 350 Enterprise Life Cycle Logistics Management 28 hrs, on-line P 25 hrs, on-line LOG 103 Reliability, Availability & Maintainability 1-3 hrs ea, on-line 8.5 days classroom 26 hrs, on-line • Knowledge based • GS 5-9 & E7-O3 • Case/scenario based • GS 13-14 & E7-O5 LOG FIPT-Approved FY13 Life Cycle Logistics Certification Construct to Meet New Competencies Level II Certification NOTE: There would still be NO prerequisites for LOG235 LOG 200 Intermediate Acquisition Logistics P ACQ 203 Intermediate Systems Acquisition LOG 235 Performance Based Life Cycle Product Support 35 hours on-line P LOG 201 Intermediate Acquisition Logistics 4.5 days classroom 40 hours, online P P ACQ 202 Intermediate Systems Acquisition 4.5 days classroom LOG 211 Supportability Analysis P LOG 206 Intermediate Systems Sustainment 35 hours, online 4.5 days classroom xx hours on-line • Application/case based • GS 9-12 & E7-O4 Level I “Core Plus” Courses & CL Modules (See DAU catalog for details) Level II “Core Plus” Courses & CL Modules (Includes LOG 204 CM Course & new LOG 2xx Tech Data Course) Level III “Core Plus” Courses & CL Modules (See DAU catalog for details) New Cert Courses P = Prerequisite

  13. Benefits of this Approach • Addresses All Required New Competency Areas • A “Back to Basics” restoration of competencies which were deemphasized under Acquisition Reform • Facilitates Inter-disciplinary/ Cross-functional Competency Integration • Provides Better Balance Across DAWIA Certification Levels • Maximizes Curricula Development Resources by Enhancing and Redeploying Existing Courseware • No Net Increase in DAWIA Certification Classroom Hours at Level I or Level II • Integrates Sustainment and PBL as a Life Cycle System Sustainment Strategy • Minimizes Additional Classroom Hours/Travel Costs by Consolidating two Separate Week-long LOG 207 & LOG 236 Courses into Single 8.5 day course • Proactively addresses recommendations from DoD Reliability Improvement Working Group (RIWG) and DoD Product Support Assessment Team (PSAT) • Strong Endorsement from Life Cycle Logistics FIPT & Functional Leader Increased Rigor - Competency Based - Outcome Focused

  14. Planned LOG Course Development & Revision Roadmap in Priority Order Note: FY10 Deployment of LOG 103 & LOG 206 a DAU Performance Plan Target under Task 1.1.1 (Develop and deliver high-quality learning assets and services to our customers).

  15. Challenge #2: Life Cycle Logistics Workforce Growth

  16. DoD AT&L Workforce Count by Functional Career Field (FY09) Projected increase of 3,744 new workforce members between now and FY11 – almost 30% growth in next 12-24 months

  17. Primary Impacts of DLA Life Cycle Logistics Workforce Growth on DAU Regions • DLA coding 2,344 new Life Cycle Logistics positions in 3 Spirals between now and end of FY10 • First spiral of 628 personnel in next 60 days • Remainder in FY10 • Primary Impact on CNE, Mid-Atlantic, & Mid-West • Growth of civilian Life Cycle Logistics-coded positions will take place at four DLA locations • DLA Headquarters Fort Belvoir – 7% • DSC Philadelphia/DDC Susquehanna– 37% • Defense Supply Center Richmond – 29% Mid-Atlantic • Defense Supply Center Columbus – 27% Mid-West CNE (44%)

  18. Total DLA Workforce Growth

  19. Primary Impacts of Life Cycle Logistics Workforce Growth on DAU Regions • Air Force chartered a team in May 2008 to “reconstitute their atrophied Life Cycle Logistics workforce” • Final report due by end of year; Implementation FY10-11 • Preliminary estimates of approximately 1,400 additional positions later in FY10 or possibly early FY11 • AFMC Product Centers: Eglin, Hanscom, Wright-Patterson • AFMC Air Logistics Centers: Hill, Tinker, Robins • Space Command: Los Angeles, Peterson • Primary impact on CNE, South, Mid-West, and West regions – Cannot yet project detailed numbers for each location

  20. Challenge #3: Impact on DAU LOG Portfolio of Oct 09 DoD Weapon System Product Support Assessment (PSAT) Report

  21. Eight PSAT Recommendation Areas Next Generation Business Model: Define the overall strategy that drives cost-effective performance and capability for the Warfighter across the weapon system life cycle and enables most advantageous use of an integrated defense industrial base PPP / Industrial Integration: Align and expand the collaboration between Government & Industry that produces best value partnering practices Supply Chain Operational Strategy: Connect platform product support strategies to enterprise supply chain approaches that produces best value across the DoD components Governance: Strengthen and develop organization and mgmt processes to deliver the right sustainment information to decision-makers BCA: Building a toolbox of analytical approaches, where BCA is one of many Human Capital: Integrate Product Support competencies across the Logistics and Acquisition workforce domain to institutionalize successful traits of an outcome-based culture Metrics: Use existing metrics to catalyze sustainment strategies and trigger continuous supportability analysis O&S Costs: Improve O&S cost visibility and influence Weapons System Data: Define, collect, report, and manage the data we need to drive effective Life Cycle Product Support 21

  22. Summary & Road Ahead • Major changes to learning asset content and course offerings to address new Logistics competency set • Cannot yet quantify impact of PSAT policy & process changes, but they will be significant (competency set will be scrubbed again) • Additional DAU LOG faculty (FTE) required between FY10-11 to meet anticipated workload demands of new Logistics competencies, new courses, and workforce accessions • Longer-term (post-2014), surge will diminish, but because career field will be at least 25-30% larger, annual out-year throughput will remain substantially higher than today • Will likely necessitate more multi- functional faculty, more Sec 852 hires, contract/adjunct faculty, and other innovative ideas such as possible short-term rotational assignments of DLA/USAF personnel to assist mitigate teaching workload impacts or slowing accessions
