Abstract

MyNavy Human Resources (HR) Transformation - formerly known as Manpower, Personnel, Training & Education (MPT&E) Transformation -- will change how we recruit, how HR services are provided throughout a Sailor's entire "Hire-to-Retire" lifecycle and improve fleet combat readiness. By streamlining processes and systems, MyNavy HR will improve the speed, accuracy, and quality of personnel and pay services, better positioning the Navy to equip and manage its people. This effort is the linchpin of the Navy's MPT&E Business IT Transformation strategy that stems from investing in programs that directly align with the Sailor 2025 vision. The current 70-year-old business processes and 40-year-old obsolete IT systems will not sustain anticipated Fleet growth and is neither cost efficient nor effective. MyNavy HR involves revolutionary change by using agile delivery model to the greatest extent possible to implement business IT products using the Industry Best Practices Model (e.g., early investment for largest ROI, rapid prototyping, and vanilla COTS products usage.) MyNavy HR is a fully integrated portfolio of IT Systems organized into five distinct pillars: Navy Personnel and Pay (NP2), Learning Stack (LS), Enterprise Customer Relationship Management (eCRM), Single Point of Entry (SPOE), and Authoritative Data Environment (ADE). This portfolio of systems serves as the cornerstone of the OPNAV N1 MyNavy HR strategy. The impetus for building an adaptive family of systems is gearing MyNavy HR Transformation towards customer needs. The traditional waterfall delivery methodology of IT goods and services cannot meet the emergent requirements evolving from shortened technical obsolescence. Thus, MyNavy HR Transformation will employ an Agile delivery method that is highly structured, with a repeatable software development approach designed to quickly deliver usable capability to the end user. These capabilities are packaged as Minimum Viable Products (MVPs) which are routinely delivered to the customer for their use and evaluation. Favorably received MVPs are subsequently refined and integrated into a production baseline. Rapidly integrating a family of systems using an agile methodology necessitates an overarching system integrator and coordinator to ingest pilots and prototypes into a technical baseline. MNHR ITS will provide the Global Design & Strategic Planning to baseline the "55 to 1" technical execution plan and will articulate the "system of systems" baseline release. Additionally, pilots and prototypes that have reached sufficient maturity will be integrated and deployed into the production baseline. AUTHORITATIVE DATA ENVIRONMENT (ADE) The Authoritative Data Environment (ADE) is an enterprise information management system that will migrate the existing MyNavy HR legacy data warehouses into a central data repository that is composed of a data warehouse, data lake, data management tools and an Application Program Interface (API) Layer. ADE will provide an authoritative data-sharing framework, leveraging scalable and interoperable technologies as well as business intelligence and data analytic capabilities. ADE will need to interface and integrate with SPOE and all MyNavy HR transactional and business systems, including enabling 'plug & play' of new services, technologies, and system capabilities. Some of the key principles of ADE include: 1. Flexible architecture and scalable design. 2. Data Governance to produce authoritative, cleansed, conformed, consolidated, and calculated data. 3. Data Access to specified users. 4. Master Data Management (core elements, metadata tagging, business rules, standards, metrics, and tools). 5. Data analytics and business intelligence (descriptive, prescriptive, and predictive). 6. Identification, development, and maintenance of enterprise data policies. ENTERPRISE CUSTOMER RELATIONSHIP MANAGEMENT (eCRM) The eCRM solution will integrate business processes, supporting systems, and authoritative data in support of Navy Personnel Command's (NPC's) MNCC (My Navy Career Center), Navy Recruiting Command (NRC), Navy Education & Training Command (NETC), and other commands that manage the Navy workforce. The eCRM solution provides an approach to manage information on current and future Sailors, veterans, and their families. The eCRM solution is organized by the following segments: 1. Sales Management - recording all stages of the prospecting process to include contact management, leads tracking, forecasting and initial processing. 2. Knowledge Management - providing the tools for identifying, capturing, evaluating, retrieving, and sharing information assets. 3. Case Management - supporting the automation of processes to formulate opinions, approvals, and fulfillment of case related requests. 4. Performance Management- supporting the performance of Navy Sailors. 5. Recruiting - eCRM capabilities provide several functions in support of the Navy's recruiting needs, to include: A. Provide personally identifiable information (PII) in a commercial cloud platform. B. Provide ability for users to access mobile platforms. C. Meet Navy Cybersecurity requirements to protect Impact Level (IL) 4 data and will achieve an Authority to Operate (ATO) from the Navy Authorizing Official (NAO). D. Support non-recruiting activities and address case management and knowledge management. Case management functionality supports tracking incidents, and knowledge management provides for sharing and collaborating across various business areas. LEARNGING STACK (LS) The Learning Stack will provide a cloud-based material solution that will streamline learning management (course/content delivery and assessments), capture and record interactive learning experiences, enable curriculum authoring and development, provide student Sailor registration and administration, create and regulate course/student scheduling, and offer e-learning capabilities, such as distance learning. The Learning Stack is a delivery vehicle for the following core objectives of the Ready Relevant Learning (RRL) initiative: Learning Management System (LMS) with Assessments - MyNavy Training (MNT) MyNavy Learning (MNL)/Learning Object Repository (LOR) Curriculum Development System (CDS) Student Information System (SIS) Enterprise Resource Scheduler (ERS) The Learning Stack is one of three lines of effort that is the Navy's strategy for IT learning continuum. The other two are RRL content modernization, and the Training Network infrastructure. Collectively, these three individual efforts will cultivate instruction content that meets Fleet validated needs (ashore and afloat), and provide keystone delivery mechanisms that will decrease training timelines, assimilate operational agility, and improve overall mission readiness. Additionally, the Learning Stack supports the MyNavy HR Transformation Program that includes yet expands beyond the RRL core initiatives identified above. In support of the broader MyNavy HR enterprise, the Learning Stack will provide a centralized, authoritative repository for Interactive Multimedia Instruction (IMI) courseware, officer and citizen development (NJROTC and ROTC candidate management), enlisted advancement exam development and distribution, enlisted degree completions, and tuition assistance authorizations. The RRL and MyNavy HR Transformation initiatives require the development of Learning Stack capabilities that permit: 1. Mobile & flexible delivery of modular training to the Sailor 2. Synchronization of work requirements with learning modules to ensure proper training delivery 3. Leveraging cloud-hosted capabilities to optimize the Learning Stack delivery model NAVY PERSONNEL AND PAY (NP2) A 2015 analysis of alternatives for integration of personnel and pay capabilities recommended the use of Oracle PeopleSoft 9.2 with Global Payroll for achieving the Navy's Personnel and Pay IT needs. Follow-on analysis conducted as part of the MyNavy HR Transformation efforts in 2016 and 2017 indicated that the most cost effective approach to achieving the Transformation goals of modernizing HR Business System IT consistent with industry best practices was de-customization of the Navy Standard Integrated Personnel System (NSIPS) which uses Oracle PeopleSoft as its core technology, integration with Global Payroll, use of General Ledger to maximize auditability and accounting functions and hosting of the integrated solution. Navy Personnel and Pay (NP2) will develop and sustain the core system of systems architecture; executing pilot programs and iterative development of capabilities for Navy's MyNavy HR Transformation. The NP2 adapts and reengineers business processes to conform to the technical parameters of PeopleSoft 9.2 while integrating with the Direct to Treasury Pay Capability via Pay Modernization (Pay Mod). This combined effort will result in a minimally-customizable vanilla configured Commercial Off the Shelf, cloud hosted, integrated personnel and pay solution that will provide the Navy with an IT system that is modern, highly automated, auditable, and more efficient. Implementation of NP2 will result in several key benefits: 1. Improved accuracy and auditability of personnel and pay transactions. 2. Treasury Direct Disbursing eliminating Navy reliance on the Defense Joint Military Pay System. 3. Improved permeability of Active and Reserve Components to improve accuracy and eliminate delays in pay processing when a member moves between components. 4. Increased automation of common personnel and pay transactions 5. Integration of functionality currently spread across 55+ different adhoc and outdated HR Business Systems. SINGLE POINT OF ENTRY (SPOE) SPOE is an integrated, unified capability that includes MyNavy Portal (MNP), Mobile Applications, and Identity, Credential and Access Management (ICAM). It also includes integration with eCRM, NP2, and ADE solutions. SPOE consolidates the Navy's HR portals, knowledge, and applications into a single simplified Sailor experience. Through a multi-phased modernization approach, SPOE provides an intuitive self-service capability for Sailors to view and manage their personnel and career information. It provides Active and Reserve Sailors with personalized interactive experiences and access to relevant information including learning content, HR applications, and career business processes. SPOE forms a foundational capability for the MyNavy Career Center (MNCC) by connecting its portal and ICAM functionality with eCRM. The Navy's strategy for transformation of its MyNavy HR capabilities relies on SPOE as the user-facing capability linking Sailors to modernized personnel and pay capabilities, MyNavy Training (MNT), and ADE. SPOE includes processes, capabilities, and functionalities, such as: 1. Integration of capabilities to include: My Navy Portal (MNP), Mobile Applications, CRM solution, and Identity Credential Access Management (ICAM) 2. MNP A. Serve as the My NavyHR's single point of entry to Sailors HR resource B. Provide capability to have a low bandwidth version accessible to Sailors operating in a restricted bandwidth environment C. Provide CAC-free access for Sailors accessing MNP via personal devices such as smart phones, tablets, personal laptops and computers. D. Provide solution set for disconnected Operations E. Provide a private portal for Sailors to access personal HR information F. Provide a public presence for access to non- sensitive information. 3. ICAM A. Provide authentication and Single Sign-On (SSO) capability for access to the objective MyNavy HR capability. 4. Mobility Program A. Maintain the ability to host and manage mobile applications through Apple/iTunes & GooglePlay app stores and host information in MyNavy HR's Navy App Locker website and mobile app. (www.applocker.navy.mil) B. Provide Mobile application management suite/platform and processes for agile development and sustainment of apps' portfolio.
