Manpower Pers & Human Fact System
Abstract
This program is funded under RDT&E operational systems development because it encompasses engineering and development of new end-items prior to production approval decision and the upgrading and enhancement of existing Manpower, Personnel, Training, and Education (MPT&E) decision support systems, tools and models. This non-acquisition category program provides funds for continued R&D for broader application of advanced technologies to transition successful research proof-of-concept demonstrations into operational use. This Program Element (PE) provides funding to support the transition of models and decision support tools from RDT&E funded to production and into the hands of analysts and program managers throughout the MPT&E enterprise. The PE also supports the application of proven industry models, tools and methodologies to Navy MPT&E problems where government-off-the-shelf (GOTS) solutions are non-existent. Faced with complex challenges to efficiently and effectively attract, develop, and retain Navy Sailors, N1 has prepared an MPT&E Transformation plan to combat threats to mission readiness. The strategic vision and desired end-state of the endeavor is a holistic modernization of models, processes, and information technology, to dramatically improve the quality of MPT&E service delivery. There are too many Legacy IT Systems, an overly complex data management system, and limited Sailor-Self-Service options with no mobile access. The IT Transformation will focus on two primary strategies: maximizing the utilization of commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) technologies and the implementation of cloud based technologies. Together these two approaches will improve both the service to Sailors and to Fleet readiness, reduce our technology footprint and increase accountability and audit readiness. In accordance with the MPT&E transformation plan, legacy systems will be replaced by modern and robust solutions that better support Navy's ability to execute its mission and efficiently allocate its resources. N1 will provide the access, schematics, and other pertinent information regarding the existing architecture, artifacts, and visualizations to enable this transformation. Migrating the data housed within these disparate systems to centralized, COTS-configured applications will reduce costs, eliminate redundancy, and streamline processes in accordance with the goals set forth in the transformational effort strategy. There are four key activities that set the foundation for holistic MPT&E transformation: - Establish a Core Suite of Integrated HR Business Systems (MPT&E Core) - Integrated pay and personnel system to make the navy system accurate, timely and audit ready. - Establish World Class Sailor Self Service and Single Point of Entry (SPOE) - Put the Sailor "on-line" and provide access to their records via their smart phone in a Sailor friendly way. SPOE provides a single Web, Mobile, and Telephonic gateway for Sailors, Fleet leaders, and HR Professionals to access personnel systems and services. SPOE includes the standup and launch of the MyNavy Career Center which replaces 64 legacy Personnel Service Detachments with 2 centralized, modern, Sailor friendly call and service centers. In addition to labor costs, stand-up of the MNCC requires minor upgrades existing Navy Call Center facilities (Telephony) and implementation of modern Customer Relations Management software to allow initiation, tracking, and resolution of personnel action requests. SPOE also includes the creation of a web and mobile enabled portal that provides single sign on access to MPT&E IT applications via identity and access management, ability to generate action and service requests via the underlying Customer Relations Management software, and ability to conduct most needed personnel system actions via self-service. - Conduct Strategy, Architecture, Design, Requirements Definition, and Business Processes Re-engineering (Support / Infrastructure) - Fundamentally automate manual, mundane, "business as usual" processes and procedures to dramatically improve performance and reduce costs. Shift away from Navy data centers to fee for service, cloud based hosting. - Establish an Authoritative Data Environment and Comprehensive Analytics (ADE) - Create a single source of data truth supporting HR systems and provide a full suite of prescriptive, predictive, and descriptive analytics to both leadership and Sailors alike. ADE provides an accelerated path to good data and good analytics enabling good decisions. A modern, scalable cloud-based data environment using an API layer to deliver on "single source of truth" and adv. analytics (subsuming all other MPTE data sources); effort includes establishment of a data lake for analytics. Transformation leverages activities in existing programs of record and reshapes them to achieve a unified strategy and vision for IT and non-IT service delivery. Modernizing, integrating, and consolidating existing programs of record accelerates transformation while making the most of existing Navy resources. Additionally, transitioning legacy systems to COTS-configured applications will reduce costs, eliminate redundancy, and streamline processes in accordance with the goals set forth in the transformational effort strategy.
