  1. Creating Ammunition Enterprise Excellence 39th Annual Gun & Ammunition/Missiles & Rockets Conference Mr. Kevin Fahey Deputy Program Executive Officer for Ammunition (973) 724-7102 Kevin.Fahey@us.army.mil

  2. Key Points • Working hard to integrate logistics and acquisition and create a single voice (not single person) in SMCA operations/Army Ammunition Management. • Instilling discipline/System Engineering mentality in the way we look at every aspect of the ammunition enterprise • Still have major work to do in working with and communicating with our customers/external interfaces • The Ammunition Enterprise has Addressed Critical Needs and is Poised to Focus on Long Term Strategic Challenges

  4. Ammunition Enterprise Definition • The Ammunition Enterprise is the integration of people, infra-structure and processes required for ammunition life cycle management to support the warfighter.

  5. Enterprise Management Philosophy • Promote Best Value Acquisitions • Utilize Disciplined Processes • Deploy Six Sigma and Lean Design/Production • Promote Continuous Process Improvement and Technology Insertion • Promote Commonality and Interoperability • Promote Spiral or Evolutionary System Development • Ensure customers voice in the process Put Eyeballs On – “Trust, but Verify”

  6. Executive Black Belt Program • Initiated VSE facilitated monthly sessions at PEO Ammo with Sr. PEO, JMC, ARDEC Leaders on Jun 03 • Learning Lean Six Sigma tools through lectures and three project teams working on: • Procurement of ammunition • Supplier assessment process • Engineering support process • Mapped ammo enterprise and prioritized processes improvement opportunities

  7. Expected Payback • Acquisition management consistency • Fact-based decision • Better prioritization and application of resources • All aspects of the enterprise taken into consideration during process • Complete, consistent and comprehensive acquisition strategies • Streamlined processes • Baseline for our decisions • Better understanding and management of risks • Manage Ammunition as a major acquisition program across the enterprise and not a commodity • Reliable and effective products for the war fighter

  8. Enterprise Excellence Effectiveness Quality Management System Voice of the Customer Six-Sigma Project Selection Six-Sigma Process Control Six-Sigma Process Improvement s Efficiency Process Optimization Process Metrics Lean Workload Balancing Lean Metrics Lean Process Deployment Model A disciplined, structured approach for process and product optimization that is focused on the effectiveness' and efficiency bottom line of the organization.

  12. Summary – The Ammunition Enterprise is … • An integrated organization that sees the “big picture” and hears the “voice of the customer” • Making fact based decisions • Continuously improving effectiveness and efficiency • Championing innovation at all levels Supporting the Joint warfighter in every way possible

  13. Discussion

  14. Ammunition Enterprise • Mission: • Single Manager for Conventional Ammunition • Life Cycle Acquisition Management of Ammunition • Key Objectives: • Unify and Integrate Ammunition Management Under One Single Chain of Command – Working hard to integrate logistics and acquisition and create a single voice (not single person) in SMCA operations/Army Ammunition Management • Develop a Unified Munitions Acquisition Strategy • Identify and Optimize Key Business Processes • Develop an Overarching Industrial Base Strategy (Organic and Commercial) • Provide Integrated Supply Chain Management of the Ammunition Production Base

  15. Enterprise Excellence • Create an agile organization capable of quickly addressing problems, changing budgets, changing requirements, changing technology, changing industrial base etc. • Culture based on fact-based decision making • Maximize value though quality management-voice of customer-effectiveness-efficiency Value is the timely delivery of effective quality ammunition that is safe and provides our warfighters an overmatch capability-readiness
