RISK DOCUMENTATION
• Required for ALL elements of risk...including UPDATES!
Risk Management Plans should reflect the operating environment: Current, accurate, and complete Basis for Customer decision-making Focus should be on the quality and succinctness of the information
Where are the risks and what is the risk mitigation strategy?
• Method of Communication to all Stakeholders
Coordination with Supplier required

Earned Value Management
• Work Breakdown Structure (WBS)* Used to organize collection and analysis of detailed
costs. Establishes a structure for identifying products,
processes, and data. Is a product of the systems engineering process.
• Earned Value Reporting system that tracks cost and schedule progress. Projected performance is based on WBS.

Technical Performance Measures and EVM
• Metrics and Earned Value* Technical Performance Measures (TPMs).
Traceable to WBS elements are preferred.
When combined with product metrics, earned value is a powerful tool

TPM Pilot
• Desired end state… ultimate goal? Predictive analysis of cost/schedule/performance problems Integration of TPMs with WBS, EV, and Risk Management
• Did we get there? Needed program(s) with good traceability between WBS
elements, EV control accounts, requirements, and TPMs Needed to show predictive success and/or an
enhancement in program and risk management
![Page 15: Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA) Brief Presented By: Mr. Syd Pope Director, Contract Tech Ops spope@hq.dcma.mil March 07, 2002.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081513/56649daa5503460f94a988a0/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
TPM Pilot: Results• Pilot program was a challenge:
TPMs not on contract; contract problems Rqmts not defined; inadequate WBS
• But there were many benefits:
Greater understanding of contract/system requirements Better insight into risk assessment Forces a systematic approach to analyzing performance
• Next step is to approach industry and PMOs Working with Northrop Grumman; making joint presentation
at Lean Aerospace Plenary in March May work with Army Excalibur and Air Force JSF programs

National Aerospace and Defense Contractor Accreditation Program (NADCAP) Pilot Study
• DCMA Test Sites: DCMAE - CMO Baltimore, CMO Syracuse,
and CMO Detroit DCMAW - CMO Chicago, and CMO Van
Nuys• Test Areas: Welding, Heat Treating, NDT
Purpose: To test the feasibility and effectiveness of relying on NADCAP Data to eliminate redundant surveillance to the maximum extent possible.

• Results to date: Limited success due to the very small ratio
of active contractors currently certified. Unsuccessful in doing a comprehensive data
analysis of NADCAP audit findings for most common problems
• Current actions: Working with NADCAP staff to restructure database for more effective data analysis
• Current Plans: Continue membership in the 3 areas.
