FUDSWhat is FUDS?
Definition: Real property that was under the jurisdiction of the Secretary and owned by, leased by, or otherwise possessed bythe U.S. and those real properties where accountability rested with DoD but the activities at the properties were conducted by contractors that were transferred from DoD control prior to October 17, 1986.
Goal: “To reduce, in a timely and cost effective manner, the risk to human health and the environment resulting from past DoD activities at formerly used Department of Defense properties.”

FUDS
DERP-FUDS Missions
• Correction of other environmental damage -such as unexploded ordnance (Military Munitions Response Program (MMRP))
• Building demolition and debris removal (BD/DR)
• Identification, investigation and cleanup of hazardous, toxic, and radioactive waste (HTRW)

FUDSFUDS is a Different Animal
• The FUDS Program addresses only DoD generatedcontamination that occurred before 1986, before transfer of property
• DoD does not own the propertythat FUDS is addressing
• Past property owners: Army, Navy,Marines, Air Force, Other Defense AgencyProperties
• We do not certify that theproperty is clean
• We work hand in hand withcurrent property owners andregulators on cleanup efforts

FUDS TransformationA long time in the making
• Transformation of FUDS Management and Execution preceded by initiatives that improved process and performance:– Engineer Regulation 200-3-1, FUDS Program Policy –
coalesced FUDS Property and Project management and execution strategy
– FUDS Program Management Plan – maintained focus on Customer expectations for delivery of quality products and services in support of Army Cleanup Strategy
– FUDS Annual Workplan – joint effort between HQDA and HQUSACE
– FUDS Information Improvement Program (FIIP) –archiving of documentation that support project decisions

FUDS
FUDS TransformationA long time in the making (cont’d)
– FUDS Forum - Developed several management initiatives such as Statewide Management Action Plans (SMAPs), teambuilding with Stakeholders on FUDS Priorities
– Completion of CERCLA PAs for Properties with MMRP – the initial step of the CERCLA Process
– DoD MMRP Site Investigations (SIs) – initiative to complete 765 SIsby FY2010
– Transition of MMRP Response Actions from Removal to Remedial Process – for consistency with the intent of the NCP
– Chemical Warfare Material Scoping Study - completed CWM Scoping Study, reduced FUDS Cost to Complete (CTC) by $1.0B

Transformation of FUDSManagement and Execution
• Issues driving FUDS Transformation:– Management and execution of FUDS Program was
perceived as too costly.• Army Secretariat challenged USACE to reduce management
and execution costs • Making more funding available for project execution
– Unconstrained growth of management and execution diluted competencies of workforce
• Having 22 Districts management and execute a $250M program resulted in redundant organizations.
• The synergy from concentrating work at USACE “centers of capability” was not being realized
The US Army Corps of Engineers — Formerly Used Defense Sites..13
FUDS
• A FUDS Transformation Study was conducted in FY2006 to:– Identify a most efficient organization
• Capable of doing “more with less”• With infrastructure to facilitate efficient management and
execution– Promote/ maintain programmatic and technical
competencies• Aggregate work where competencies exist • Prevent dilution of competencies• Across the spectrum of operations (domestic and contingency)
– Structure USACE to execute potential funding increase• Workforce capable of ramping up quickly should funding occur

FUDS
• Guiding Principles for analysis:– USACE Strategic Directions Statements:
• Using a Consistent Business Process• Careful Stewards of Resources
– Lean Six Sigma concepts• Method of analysis focused on:
– Qualifications– Workload/Size of Program

Transformation Recap
• Pre-Transformation Organization:– 7-RBCs performing regional level FUDS Program
Management– 22-Districts performing Program and Project Management
for FUDS properties within their District boundary
• Post-Transformation Organization:– 7-RBCs– 13-Districts– Two Management Schemes providing desired results
The US Army Corps of Engineers — Formerly Used Defense Sites..16
FUDS
FUDS TransformationSelected Management Schemes
• FUDS Management Scheme 1:– Four RBCs will perform Regional and District level
Program Management activities (NWD, POD, SPD, SWD):
• Two Districts per Region performing Project Management activities

FUDS
FUDS TransformationSelected Management Schemes
• FUDS Management Scheme 2:– Three RBCs will assign one District performing
Regional Program Management activities (LRD, NAD, SAD) and project management
– One additional District per Region (all but SAD) performing Project Management of FUDS properties within their District boundary

Role of the Geographic District
• Geographic District provides important role: – Member of Project Delivery Team (PDT),– Supports the PM:
• Landowner, lead Regulatory Agency, other Stakeholder Support,
• Real Estate Support, • Public Affairs Office Support, • Contract Oversight Support, • Technical membership on PDT.

FUDS
• Summary and Conclusions:- Continuity of Services
• Stakeholder and Regulatory issues addressed• Seamless transformation from losing to gaining Districts• Continuation of FUDS Property and Project response actions• Accomplishment of DoD and Army goals and objectives
– FUDS Transformation is the “Next Step”• Resulting in organizational improvements• Applies Lean Six Sigma concepts• Is in parallel to the Army LSS initiative
– Transformation Results in…• A leaner structure of 7 RBCs/13 FUDS Districts• That will provide more efficient operation, cost avoidance and
improve Customer satisfaction
