Force Development Transformation

Abstract

The Force Development Transformation program contains two independent DAF initiatives addressing vital personnel issues: Personnel Services Delivery and the Total Integration Mobilization Execution System. Personnel Services Delivery: Personnel Services Delivery (PSD), under the Personnel Administration program, funds operational developments necessary to acquire, field, and modify business processes to transform the delivery of Human Resources (HR) capabilities through the structured redesign of the Total Force Personnel Community's people (Active Duty, Reserve, Guard, and Civilians), processes, and technologies. PSD Transformation fundamentally shifts the way personnel services are provided, transitioning from primarily face-to-face interactions with a personnelist to a tiered model with services delivered through online self-service, contact centers, and reduced in-person interactions. PSD supports the migration of legacy applications and other information technologies from on premises data centers to a more sustainable cloud-based hosting solution and flexible services-based architecture as defined by the Defense Enterprise Service Management Framework (DESMF). In addition, funds will be used to perform studies and innovative integration efforts for common technology capabilities such as cloud migration, technology development, and mobile application. Total Integration Mobilization Execution System: The Total Integration Mobilization Execution System (TIMES) will be a cloud-based software suite utilized to modernize the Air Force's processes to mobilize (i.e., activate) the 178,000 Guard and Reserve Airmen under Title 10 orders in support of the Active Duty mission. Current mobilization processes include coordination through 32 disparate information systems and numerous databases (e.g., MS SharePoint, Excel) and often results in delays to issuing orders. TIMES will streamline the planning, allocation, and execution process by automating activation processes to enable rapid and accurate information flow from requirements generation, resource planning, identifying an Airman to fulfill a requirement, orders processing and delivery, and finally to initiating pay and benefits. TIMES will have the capability to rapidly adjust to a changing mission environment while minimizing operating costs by utilizing cloud hosting and an agile software development methodology (DevSecOps). It will increase Air Force Guard and Reserve members' confidence that when called to serve, their families will be taken care of. This program element may include necessary civilian pay expenses required to manage, execute, and deliver weapon system capability. The use of such programs funds would be in addition to the civilian pay expenses budgeted in program element 0605827F, 0605828F, 0605829F, 0605831F, 0605832F, 0605833F, 0605898F, 0606398F. In FY 2023 $0.000M was expended for civilian pay expenses in this program element, and in FY 2024 $0.000M is forecasted for civilian pay expenses in this program element. This program is in Budget Activity 7, Operational System Development because this budget activity includes development efforts to upgrade systems that have been fielded or have received approval for full rate production and anticipate production funding in the current or subsequent fiscal year.
