Strategic Goals Implementation Plan V3.0

Abstract

The Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology and Logistics (USD(AT&L)) Strategic Goals Implementation Plan aligns AT&L with the defense enterprise by flowing down the national and defense strategic guidance, particularly the Quadrennial Defense Review, into four strategic thrusts and seven organizational goals. The four enterprise-level strategic thrusts are grounded in a set of guiding principles, proactive approaches, and specific initiatives/goals and metrics articulated by the USD(AT&L), and captured in this plan and the USD(AT&L) Source Document. Our 2008 plan, particularly Strategic Thrust #4, was guided by the Deputy Secretary of Defense s August 2007 DoD Transformation Priorities. The USD(AT&L) team used time-certain initiatives, metrics, and assigned leadership to track progress and adjust efforts as necessary. The plan was updated in March, June, and September 2007, and again in January, July, and September 2008, following tri-annual reviews. This update reflects status as of September 2008. In mid-September, USD(AT&L) hosted an off-site with senior-level leaders. Although we still have a long journey before us, we are satisfied with the progress we have made to date. We are particularly proud of the successes in fielding the Mine Resistant Ambush Protected (MRAP) Vehicle, swiftly implementing Wounded Warrior recommendations, populating the AT&L workforce with trained Lean Six Sigma Black and Green Belts, and working toward a goal of saving the taxpayers $15 billion dollars. These items are but a narrow sample of the continued achievements of the AT&L workforce.
