System of Systems (SoS) – Organize Around Mission Areas– Cross Traditional Boundaries– Design Products for SoS (Joint Warfare Center)

Virtual Company– Time as Competitive Advantage– Link Partners, Suppliers, Customers– Invest in Technology That Gives MDA Advantage

One Vector Off– Concentrate Resources on Core Business– Avoid “Intriguing” but Unrelated Business

Opportunities– Spin-Off Companies/Negotiate Royalties

McDonnell Douglas McDonnell Douglas RecommendationsRecommendations

Reconsider “Planning” in PPBS– PPBS Good at Budgeting--Not Strategy– Institutionalize Scenario Based Planning at

Several Levels in DoD— Examples: AF 2025, Army After Next

Restructure for Mission Areas– OSD Organized for PPBS--Reductionistic – Organize Around Holistic Mission Areas

— Example--JROC

Experiment with a Virtual JTF – Mission Area Focus--i.e., Precision Strike– Tie Core Competencies Together in Virtual Unit– Train as a Unit (Real and Simulated)

“One Vector Off” Criteria– Core Competency is Warfighting– Example:

— Organic Maintenance within One Vector— Depot Maintenance is Not within One Vector
