If We Can Put a Man on the Moon – Delivering “Better, Faster, Cheaper” Results John O’Leary Ash Center for Democratic Governance and Innovation Harvard Kennedy School of Government John_O’Leary@hks.harvard.edu Fleet Webinar June 17, 2010
The Challenge • Challenge: To create real public value with diminishing resources: • Revenue is down at all levels • Demand for public services already exceeds capacity • Incremental improvements will be insufficient to meet the public’s needs
The Response • A “Better, Faster, Cheaper” approach that focuses relentlessly on results. • The “BFC” approach is a two-step method of analyzing government that can be applied to a variety of functional areas
Steps of BFC Approach • Step 1: Reexamine and rearticulate the public purpose of every program. • Step 2: Explore new ways of creating that public value using a variety of “BFC” techniques
BFC Approach: Step 1 Reexamine the public purpose of every program. • Articulate the goal of every activity in terms of the value being created for citizens. For example: • Improved public health, not better Medicaid; • Education for children, not just better public schools. • Maybe – safe, reliable mobility at the lowest cost – not more efficient fleet management
“BFC” Approach: Step 2 Explore new ways of creating that public value using a variety of techniques: • Competition/Outsourcing/Public-Private Partnerships • Leverage Technology • Change incentives for producers: Reward results, not effort • Change incentives for consumers: Drive efficient behaviors • Changing the rules of the game; revitalize the productive capacity by altering the framework in which public action occurs • EXAMPLE 1– Instead of fleet maintenance, extend to use of “Zipcars” or other at will vehicles… • EXAMPLE 2 – Usage reports to identify “unneeded” vehicles.
Effective Service Involves Both Government and Private Sector
Competitive Government Principles • Provide the structural foundation for competition • Activity Based Counting—If you don’t know how much it costs to accomplish the outcome then you have no idea whether you are effective. • Capital Budget with depreciation. • Measure, Measure, Measure-and reward results • Watch and recognize the Small Items that Help Make up the Culture • Contract procurement and program management are new skills require sophistication and technical knowledge
Contracting = New Challenges • Designing a contract that attracts bidders, aligns incentives. • Treat existing employees fairly • Choosing the right vendor / partner • Measure, Measure, Measure-and reward results • Deal with the unexpected • Document the results, both cost and quality
“If We Can Put a Man on the Moon…” • Good Idea • Well designed plan • Get the “Go Ahead” • Implement effectively • Monitor Results

State of Georgia • We self-insure for Workers’ Comp, Property, General Liability and Auto losses. • $160,000,000. per year in operating costs. • $26 Billion in Property Coverage. • Were we in the private sector, we would be the 25th largest insurance company in the world.

Comprehensive Loss Control Program • We passed a law allowing us to bill premium to the 160 agencies based on their loss experience, rather than their head count. • The CLCP addresses Loss Control measures in 9 areas, one of which is Auto.
The Auto Component • Driver Qualification Program • Accident Review Panel • Report My Driving Program • We provided deductible and premium incentives and training to cut losses.
Three Year Claims Count FY-08 to FY-09, 14% drop in losses. FY-09 to FY-10, 13.5% drop in losses.
Monetary Effect of the CLCP • Estimated saving for Auto-related losses 1.6 Million. • Driver’s Alert provided an instant training library available to ALL employees. • Cost of Driver’s Alert: $130,000.
Real Value • We are saving lives and avoiding injuries. • We are giving the public a voice in how we use tax dollars. • It’s like having a supervisor riding in 15,000 vehicles. • We are better trained and more aware of our responsibilities. • We are the Face of the State.
Driver’s Alert They are one part of our solution. • Had a call during a theft of a vehicle! • Identified 100 employees that account for 16% of our calls. • Pointed out trends: lane change, no signals, drifting= phone use. • Allowed us to pinpoint training and reduce claims. • Great Job!

John E. AlleyDeputy Director, Fleet ServicesCity of San Diego, CA Jalley@sandiego.gov (619) 527-6020
Outline • Business Process Reengineering (BPR) • Internal Service Funds for GF Departments • Fleet Creep – How to reduce your Fleet • Other Ideas for running your Fleet like a business
Business Process Reengineering • What BPR is Not • What is BPR • What are the BPR Fundamentals • Organizing for a BPR • BPR Activities • How long does the process take • How long does it take to implement
What is BPR is Not • It is not reorganizing • It is not downsizing • It is not incremental improvement or superficial changes; it is about dramatic leaps in performance
What is BPR • A radical approach to business process redesign • BPR is the redesign of work processes (activities, services or functions) for substantial improvement. • These work processes can be offered within or between divisions and departments. • BPR focuses on rethinking from the ground up, finding more efficient ways of working including eliminating work that is unnecessary.
BPR Fundamentals • The Mission is to Create Value for Customers • It is an Organization’s Processes that Create Value for its Customers • Success Comes from Superior Process Performance • Superior Process Performance is Achieved by having Superior Process Design, the Right People to Perform it, and the Right Environment for them to Work in
Organizing for a BPR • Identify Sponsor and Team Leaders • Organize Teams along Function Lines • Pick the most knowledgeable and productive members for the teams • Organize a Plan • Define Activities
BPR Activities • Conduct “AS IS” Process Mapping • Gather Benchmarking Information • Conduct “TO BE” Process Mapping • Conduct a SWOT • Develop MEO • Present MEO • Approve MEO • Meet & Confer
Time Line • It took from April 2006 to May 2007 • Aggressive Time Line • Some City organizations are still working on their BPR • Meet & Confer – Major time investment • We are still discovering things “we did not know, that we did not know!” • Expect a time line of 12-24 months
Results • Consolidation of three fleets into one organization • Savings • 35 Full Time Equivalent (Staff) • $3.5 Million Annually • Eliminated two Unclassified Positions • Established the Internal Service Fund for all GF Departments • One Organization responsible for Fleet
Internal Service Fund (ISF) • An Internal Service Fund in place for all Departments except Police & Fire • Police & Fire had an overage/mileage fleet of 50-75% • Under the ISF, Public Safety took on a #1 Priority • Police will take another 1-2 years • Fire will take another 4-7 years • Lease-Purchase a good financial tool
Fleet Creep • We ALL Face It! • Establish a fix set of Criterion to start • SD uses 5K Miles or 500 Operating Hours • Run a report twice a year • Establish a positive working rapport w/ customers • Take into account customer restrictions • Use the authority of the Executive • Savings of $12 Million
Ideas to Consider • Customer Visits / Rapport / Training • Benchmarking – Fleet Answers • Consortium Buying Power • Staff, Fuel, Parts – Highest Costs – Know the details • Printers versus Copiers • Fleet Replacement Policy – Lifecycles • Invest in your Staff Professionalism • Recycling – Tires, Oil, Paper, etc.
