DA GuidanceDA Guidance

Develop a strategy and implementation plan to support the major permanent restationing initiatives that the Army will execute. Overall objective is to provide the ability to establish, reuse/re-purpose facilities with minimum lead-time, leverage private industry standards and practices, and to reduce acquisition/lifecycle costs … Nov 2004

Why MILCON Transformation?Why MILCON Transformation?

• Current standards/processes do not support the Army’s requirement of getting quality facilities in the timeframe needed

• Status-quo will most likely result in a program-wide funding shortfall

7~ Our Army at War – Relevant and Ready ~

USACE 3 October 2005

MILCON Strategy GoalsMILCON Strategy Goals

• Deliver quality facilities in less time and at lower costs

• Provide permanent MILCON solutions to eliminate requirement and use of temporary facilities

• Construct adaptable facilities for the long term

• Achieve lower O&M costs thru sustainable facilities

• Streamline acquisition strategy

MILCON TransformationMILCON Transformation

• Execute MILCON as a program, not individual projects• Support Master Planning• Adapt new criteria and processes• Standardize Facilities’ Criteria• Partnering

“Faster, Better, Cheaper, and Greener solutions”

Execute MILCON as a ProgramExecute MILCON as a Program

• Program entire Brigade Combat Team (BCT) requirements as one project

• Gain economy of scale thru consolidating requirements installation-wide and/or regionally

Support Master PlanningSupport Master Planning

• Teamed with IMA to increase master planning competency within the Army

• Supplemented in-house master planning capability with A-E support

• Created military construction project templates (DD1391) for light, heavy and aviation BCT configurations

• Teamed with ACSIM/IMA for Planning Charrettes and in development of quality DD1391s

“Success requires quality planning and programming”

Criteria and ProcessesCriteria and Processes

• Standardize functional and technical criteria for facilities– Incorporate reuse and repurposing capabilities

throughout the facility life cycle– Achieve consistency– Streamline acquisition time– Focus on end result; not “how to”

• Adopt industry best practices and proven solutions to get facilities on the ground faster– Pre-engineered alternatives– Fast-track design/build

PartneringPartnering

• Internal (Army)– Synchronize execution with Army needs– Develop consistent DD 1391s– Address real estate actions – Complete NEPA in a timely manner– Ensure sufficient master planning competency

• External – Team with Private Sector– Adopt industry best practices– Develop trust thru long-term relationships

MILCON Transformation Implementation PlanMILCON Transformation Implementation Plan

Execute FY06 BRAC construction using

• Fast-track design/ build approach• Standardized Request for Proposal packages using

performance based criteria• Pre-manufactured/engineered solutions • Established regional construction contracts• Established “GSA –like” preferred provider schedules• “Adapt – build” for Army BRAC and MILCON construction
