  1. Life Cycle Cost-Logistics Improvement Joint Task with NDIA Logistics Div August 18 2010 J. Cothran B. Pieper J.S. Moorvitch

  2. Purpose To define and recommend an approach to institutionalize Operations and Support (O&S) cost reduction as an overarching priority objective influencing the broader issues of Affordability and Life Cycle Cost (LCC) reduction throughout acquisition, operation, and sustainment of DOD defense systems

  3. Background • 2010 is the “Year of Affordability” focus for DoD • Sec Gates Remarks at Eisenhower Library • Sect. 805 2010 NDAA: “maximize value to the Department of Defense by providing the best possible product support outcomes at the lowest operations and support cost” • 28 June 2010 USD/AT&L Memo: “Restore Affordability to our programs and activities” • OSD PSAT: “Make life cycle affordability a core business process”

  4. Background • LCS Committee held a joint DoD-Industry workshop 27 April 2010 • 40+ in attendance (including OSD Logistics/SE leadership) • Identified 23 life cycle LCC/Affordability issues (root causes, potential solutions) • Consolidated into 4 Core Issues • Gap analysis vs. current OSD initiatives

  5. PSAT Recommendations Product Support 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 Industrial Integration Strategy: 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 Analytical Tools: Build a toolbox of analytical approaches (including BCA) Metrics: Use existing metrics to catalyze sustainment strategies and trigger continuous supportability analysis Human Capital: Integrate Product Support competencies across the Logistics and Acquisition workforce domain to institutionalize successful traits of an outcome-based culture RAM/RMS? 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

  6. OSD Affordability Initiative • Response to Carter memo • Established Senior Integration Group (SIG) with 5 issue teams • Affordability Task Force led by ADUSD/MR (Randy Fowler); co-chaired by RDML Randy Mahr (Navy PEO(T)) and SES Darlene Costello (AT&L/PSA/NW) • NDIA LCS findings prominently folded into ATF analysis and initial recommendations • NDIA membership on AFT core team

  7. NDIA LCC/Affordability Recommendations • Narrow RAM/RMS focus “with intent” • Other issue areas well-covered by PSAT • TOC/LCC, O&S cost, governance, BCA, partnerships, sustainment metrics, … • RAM/RMS conspicuous by absence • Huge gap in OSD policy on fielded operational systems • Need for detailed, actionable recommendations

  8. We Are in Sync with ATF • Randy Fowler, ADUSD/MR, Chair, AFT has indicated he’s “good” with our focus on RAM/RMS as a “direct, measureable tie to TOC/O&S”, and it is not redundant with other ongoing efforts. • Window of Opportunity for submission of our recommendations to OSD: mid-Sept. 2010

  9. Way Forward • Review and finalize recommendations through NDIA leadership • Submit to OSD (Randy Fowler, Nic Torelli) • Consolidate into/augment OSD ATF recommendations • Pass to OSD PSAT implementation team • Incorporate into final products leading to updates to policy, guidance, and processes

  10. Summary • NDIA is clearly influencing OSD Affordability efforts and recommendations • The environment is ripe for making tangible change • RAM/RMS activities and emphasis are a proven approach to reducing O&S/Life Cycle cost • We must leverage this opportunity
