Environment: 

Environment Summary Defense Industry an Oligopoly with Unfavorable Operating Margins Government Receptive to Improving Industry National Security Dependent on Successful Transformation From “Threat” to “Capability” Deterrence The Path To Success is Through Solid Execution and Improved Performance The Nation Needs Good Performance! 11 SCEA June 2002.ppt

Cost Performance: 

Cost Performance “The inability to control the cost of modern weapons is arguably America’s greatest long-term military vulnerability.” Fallows, James “Uncle Sam Buys An Airplane.” The Atlantic Monthly June 2002: 62-74.

Cost Performance: 

Cost Performance Too Many Major Overruns SBIRS High Space Station Global Hawk Theater Ballistic Missile Defense What’s Causing The Cost Growth. . .? Source: Selected Acquisition Report (SAR) December 31, 2001

Top 10 Reasons For Poor Cost Performance: 

Top 10 Reasons For Poor Cost Performance

Top 10 Reasons For Poor Cost Performance : 

Top 10 Reasons For Poor Cost Performance Proceeding Rightly From a Wrong Premise Estimating Cost Based on an Unsound Assumption Masks Significant Cost Risk. When (Not If) the Program Over-Runs, the Original Estimate will be Remembered but the Under-lying Assumptions Will Not Validate Assumptions. Do Not Assume Away Risk! Abbott: I say Who's on first, What's on second, I Don't Know's on third - Costello: You know the fellows' names? Abbott: Certainly! Costello: Well then who's on first? Abbott: Yes! Costello: I mean the fellow's name! Abbott: Who! Costello: The guy on first! 15 SCEA June 2002.ppt

Top 10 Reasons For Poor Cost Performance (Cont’d): 

Top 10 Reasons For Poor Cost Performance (Cont’d) New Learning Curve Theory As the Quantity Increases, the Unit Price Does Not Change, and May Go Up If the Tasks are Not Highly Routinized, Repetitive, Labor Intensive, and Without Gaps, There is No Learning

Top 10 Reasons For Poor Cost Performance (Cont’d): 

Top 10 Reasons For Poor Cost Performance (Cont’d) Do Not Mistake the Act of Planning for Actually Having a Plan Series of Program Plans D’Jour is a Certain Indicator of a Program in Trouble Today’s Plan

Top 10 Reasons For Poor Cost Performance (Cont’d): 

New Moore’s Law Top 10 Reasons For Poor Cost Performance (Cont’d) For Development, Proven Trend of Less Cost Per Unit of Computer Function Equates to Greater Functionality for Same Cost, Not Less Cost (e.g., Hrs/Dwg) Graph Source: http;//www.intel.com/research/silicon/mooreslaw.htm

Top 10 Reasons For Poor Cost Performance (Cont’d): 

New Math Concepts Top 10 Reasons For Poor Cost Performance (Cont’d) EVM New Math (.9 + 1.1) ÷ 2 = 1.3 at Complete Cum CPIs of 0.9 Can Never Be Offset by 1.1 TCPIs, Unless Aided by Outstanding Negotiation of Additional Scope Synergy Savings Formulae: $1.00 – 30¢ = $1.00 Unless Demonstrated, Benefits of New Initiatives Should Not be Assumed New Ways of Doing Business to Save Cost is Good Practice, Assuming 100% Realization of Same is Risky

Top 10 Reasons For Poor Cost Performance (Cont’d): 

20 SCEA June 2002.ppt Top 10 Reasons For Poor Cost Performance (Cont’d) Test As You Fly A Test Plan That Does Not Replicate Flight-like Conditions is Incomplete and Underscoped. Cutting This Corner Will Cause You To Pay Later in Spades.

Top 10 Reasons For Poor Cost Performance (Cont’d): 

Schedule, Schedule, Schedule Top 10 Reasons For Poor Cost Performance (Cont’d) Aggressive, Accelerated Program Schedules Ensure Major Slips and Cost Growth. 21 SCEA June 2002.ppt http://www.sotafx.com/Roger/Gallery/Jack.html

Top 10 Reasons For Poor Cost Performance (Cont’d): 

Top 10 Reasons For Poor Cost Performance (Cont’d) COTS = Certain Overrun To Schedule High Percentage of COTs/Heritage/Re-use Software Code in Development Means High Percent Overrun High Growth Low Growth Low COTS Assumed High COTS Assumed % of COTS/Re-use/Re-host S/W Assumed Total S/W Cost Growth %

Top 10 Reasons For Poor Cost Performance (Cont’d): 

Soft Funding = Hard Times Top 10 Reasons For Poor Cost Performance (Cont’d) Changes in Funding Are Always Less Than Resulting Changes in Cost (Cumulative Impacts)

Top 10 Reasons For Poor Cost Performance (Cont’d): 

Top 10 Reasons For Poor Cost Performance (Cont’d) Precision Without Accuracy Poor Up-front Definition of Requirements, Including Their Decomposition and Flowdown, and Program Plan (Technical, Contractual, Schedule and Cost) Portends a Troubled Program and a Cost Baseline Without Credibility

Path Forward: 

Path Forward

Path Forward Good Example - JSF Acquisition Approach: 

Path Forward Good Example - JSF Acquisition Approach Phased Down Select to Award Parametric Life Cycle Cost Data by Anticipated Phase From Each Competitor Shoulder-to-Shoulder Review Reconciliation of Cost Estimates Between USG and Contractor Encourage, Identify, Fund and Prototype Cost Reduction Candidates Early During the Down Select Process Do Not Encourage Contractor Investment 26 SCEA June 2002.ppt

Path Forward Good Example - JSF Acquisition Approach: 

Weight Evaluation Criteria Toward Performance and Realistic Cost, Not Lowest Cost Recognize the Risk Associated with the Work Scope and Use the Appropriate Contract Type Development – Cost Plus Production – Wait Until Risk has Been Mitigated Incentivize the Winner for Good, Balanced Performance: Technical, Schedule and Cost Path Forward Good Example - JSF Acquisition Approach 27 SCEA June 2002.ppt

Path Forward Contractors Should. . .: 

Path Forward Contractors Should. . . 28 SCEA June 2002.ppt 28 SCEA June 2002.ppt Vigilantly Protect Against “The Top Ten” Perform Independent Cost Evaluations (ICE) of Their “Single Best Estimates” to Validate and Substantiate Credibility Reconcile Program Estimates & Independent Assessments Between Customer & Contractor Understand Differences & Rationale But. . . Maintain Independence & Propriety

Path Forward Contractors Should . . . (Continued): 

Path Forward Contractors Should . . . (Continued) 29 SCEA June 2002.ppt Track Estimates & Calibrate/Adjust Estimating Systems/Process/Models for Improved Accuracy Establish & Maintain “Headlight” Metrics Above & Beyond Standard Earned Value to Assure Early Warning of Performance & Risk Issues

Conclusion: 

Conclusion U.S. Government and Aerospace Contractors Must “Partner For Success” While Maintaining Arms Length Relationship Open and Candid Communication To Ensure Success Proper Contract Type Successful Business Plans For Customer & Contractor Stable Program Requirements & Funding
