IMP as the Definition of Done
- 2. • The Integrated Master Plan describes the increasing maturity of a program’s deliverables in terms of Accomplishments and Criteria needed to reach Done. • A Product Roadmap communicates direction and progress of the program, through high-level initiatives and planned steps to reach Done. 29th Annual International Integrated Program Management Workshop 2 Merging the IMP, in DOD Acquisition, with the Product Roadmap, in Agile, to Define Done
- 4. The IMP and Agile Product Roadmap Both Describe Increasing Maturity of Capabilities That Produce Value • Capabilities-based planning focuses on the engineering and delivery processes needed to produce strategic capabilities to the enterprise or mission. • For Agile programs, capabilities are described in the Product Roadmap, delivered on a Cadence or Capabilities Release Cycles. • For the IMP, capacities are described through increasing maturity of contract deliverables. • Capabilities Based Planning integrated Agile and IMP to provide foundation deliver value incrementally, while maintaining cost and schedule performance needed for contract adherence. 29th Annual International Integrated Program Management Workshop 4
- 5. 29th Annual International Integrated Program Management Workshop 5 The IMP tells us Where is the Program Going The IMP describes where we are going, the paths we can take to reach our destination, and the progress or performance assessment points along the way to assure we are on the right path. These points assess the maturity of the product or service against it’s planned maturity. This is the only real measure of progress – never the passage of time or consumption of money.

- 6. What is the IMP? Officially? • The Integrated Master Plan (IMP) is an event-based, top level plan consisting of a hierarchy of Program Events. • Each event is decomposed into specific accomplishments and each specific accomplishment is decomposed into specific Criteria. • The IMP is ultimately used to develop a time- based Integrated Master Schedule (IMS) to shows a networked, multi-layered schedule showing all the detailed tasks required to accomplish the work effort contained in the IMP. • The IMP and IMS related to the Work Breakdown Structure (WBS). • The IMP provides a Program Manager (PM) with a systematic approach to planning, scheduling and execution. 29th Annual International Integrated Program Management Workshop 6
- 7. The Simple Goal of an IMP … • It says How we recognize the Reality of the Program’s current status and its future performance in units of measure meaningful to the decision makers? 29th Annual International Integrated Program Management Workshop 7 The top spins continuous while in a dream – stops spinning in the real world – Cobb’s totem, Inception
- 10. The Product Roadmap Paradigm • Defines the Capabilities produced in each Release • Capability release ‒ ship when needed capabilities ready • Cadence release ‒ ship on pre-defined dates • Defines the Features that produce the Capabilities in the releases • Defines the collected Features in Work Package • Sequences those Work Packages in the Product Backlog for development in Sprints 29th Annual International Integrated Program Management Workshop 10
- 11. What is the Product Roadmap in an IMP Context? • Product Roadmap communicates direction and progress to internal teams and external stakeholders. • It shows high-level initiatives and planned steps to get there. • The roadmap is a product management document and should live separately. • Product Roadmap should be a continuous process throughout the lifecycle of a product. • Requirements and features generated by lots of participants including: customers, partners, sales, support, management, engineering, operations, and product management. • The product management team determines priorities and assures roadmap is aligned with the business goals. 29th Annual International Integrated Program Management Workshop 11
- 12. IMP Structure 29th Annual International Integrated Program Management Workshop 12 IMS IMP Describes how program capabilities will be delivered and how these capabilities will be recognized as ready for delivery Supplemental Schedules (CAM Notebook) Work Packages and Tasks Criteria Accomplishment Events or Milestones
- 13. Grammar of the IMP • IMP phrases use a past tense verb – to describe what DONE looks like • IMS phrases use present tense verb – to describe work needed to arrive at DONE 29th Annual International Integrated Program Management Workshop 13 Maturity ProductAction Product State Adjective Noun Verb Verb Demonstrates Maturity Step in the Process End Item Final Status Preliminary Model/Sim Design Complete Preliminary Modeling and Simulation Design Complete
- 15. Six Steps of the IMP Paradigm • The IMP contains Program Events (PE), Significant Accomplishments (SA), and Accomplishment Criteria (AC), derived from the Work Breakdown Structure or the SOW • This can be done in 6 easy steps 29th Annual International Integrated Program Management Workshop 15 1. Identify the Program Events (PE) (as the ACQ Guide tells us) 2. Identify the Significant Accomplishments (SA) from the WBS deliverables 3. Identify the Accomplishment Criteria (AC) needed to produce these deliverables 4. Identify the Work Packages for each Accomplishment Criteria 5. Sequence the Work Packages 6. Assemble the IMP/IMS

- 18. The IMP Speaks to MoE’s and MoP’s 29th Annual International Integrated Program Management Workshop 18 § This is where TPMs are connected with the MoE’s and MoP’s § For each deliverable from the program, all the “measures” must be defined in units meaningful to the decision makers. § Here’s some “real” examples. 1. Provide Precision Approach for a 200 FT/0.5 NM DH 2. Provide bearing and range to AC platform 3. Provide AC surveillance to GRND platform Measures of Effectiveness (MoE) 1. Net Ready 2. Guidance Quality 3. Land Interoperability 4. Manpower 5. Availability JROC Key Performance Parameters (KPP) 1. Net Ready § IPv4/6 compliance § 1Gb Ethernet 2. Guidance quality § Accuracy threshold p70 @ 6M § Integrity threshold 4M @ 10-6 /approach 3. Land interoperability § Processing capability meets LB growth matrix 4. Manpower § MTBC >1000 hrs § MCM < 2 hrs 5. Availability § Clear threshold >99% § Jam threshold >90% Measures of Performance (MoP) 1. Net Ready § Standard message packets 2. Guidance Quality § Multipath allocation budget § Multipath bias protection 3. Land Interoperability § MOSA compliant § Civil compliant 4. Manpower § Operating elapsed time meters § Standby elapsed time indicators 5. Availability § Phase center variations Technical Performance Measures (TPM) Mission Capabilities and Operational Need Technical Insight – Risk adjusted performance to plan

- 23. Success Means Connecting Cost + Schedule + Technical Performance in the Presence of Uncertainty • Vertical and Horizontal integration of the Work Packages in the PMB with the Features in the Product Backlog is required. • Work to implement Features produce measures of Physical Percent Complete, to inform progress to plan in Work Packages. 29th Annual International Integrated Program Management Workshop 23
- 24. They Share Similar Measures of Progress to Plan • Measures of increasing maturity for the key deliverables is the foundation for increasing the Probability of Program Success • Measures of Effectiveness (MoE) and Measures of Performance (MoP) defined in Narratives • Key Performance Parameters (KPP) – are specific needed Capabilities without which the program will fail • Technical Performance Measures (TPM) needed for all key deliverables to assure compliance with requirements that implement needed Capabilities 29th Annual International Integrated Program Management Workshop 24
