Some Criteria For Establishing Program / Product
Events:
¨ Customer Provided Events.
¨ Key Decisions Needed. [e.g., down-select of
competitive developments; choosing a key
implementation, such as ion thrusters vs. liquid
propulsion]
¨ Risk Mitigation Event. [e.g., completion of a critical
payload qualification].](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/cevssrcimptrainingnewformat-210302222304/75/Integrated-Master-Plan-Development-34-2048.jpg)

Integrated Master Plan Development
The document discusses the development of an Integrated Master Plan (IMP) as the basis for an Integrated Master Schedule (IMS) for a program. It outlines a 6-step process for developing the IMP and IMS that includes understanding requirements, developing a product structure, forming integrated product teams, creating the IMP, creating the IMS, and developing the basis of estimate. It describes artifacts like the product tree, work breakdown structure, statement of work, and their relationships. It also outlines responsibilities of the program management team, integrated product team leads, and program planning and controls.

- 2. Introduction 2 ¨ This briefingfocuses on the development of the Integrated Master Plan (IMP) with a hands-on exercise to define a Key Event List. The basic concepts of Integrated Product Development, Integrated Management Framework, and the Integrated Master Schedule (IMS) will also be introduced (IMS overview if time allows). ¨ Upon completion, the team will have: Developed an understanding of how an event driven plan is part of the Program technical solution; developed a Key Event List; developed an IMP elaboration for one or more Key Events; and discussed the IMP translation into an IMS.
- 3. Integrated Program Framework(IPF) 3 ¨ Used by the IPTs in the conduct of their efforts ¨ Product-oriented IPF concentrates effort on program products ¤ Links resources to products ¤ Links products to people Prod Tree SOW IPTs IMP IMS BOEs CWBS The IPF provides the upfront, integrated Planning Structure for program execution ¨ IPF products linked through use of single, CWBS-based, numbering system ¨ Creates a trackable, event-driven, program
- 4. Why Use anIntegrated Approach? 4 ¨ Translates customer objectives, strategies, priorities and requirements and constraints into a contractually binding plan ¨ Evolves and reconciles the customer’s needs and contractor’s capabilities into a cost effective and verifiable contractual understanding ¨ Reduces uncertainties by forcing detailed planning and ownership of the plan up front ¨ Builds in flexibility to adjust the resources and schedule to manage the program risks and their uncertainties
- 5. Artifact Relationships 5 ¨ EveryIPPD program element is focused on product delivery ¤ The Product Tree, CWBS, and IPT structure all look the same ¤ All Framework products are related through the CWBS Unambiguous traceability between all artifacts is the basis of success Product Tree Describes WHAT IPT Structure Describes WHO CWBS “The Cornerstone” • Structure directly tied to CWBS • Primarily used to scope assigned tasks CSOW • Tied to IMP events • Logic Network & Durations • Contains all work IMS • Program Success Events • PEs, SAs, and ACs • PEs may cross CWBSEs • Structure tied to CWBS • Includes Process Narratives IMP Describes WHEN Describes WHAT & HOW MUCH Describes WHAT & HOW

- 25. The Integrated MasterPlan (IMP) 25 Provides the overarching framework against which all work is accomplished ¨ Reflects an Event/Accomplishment/Criteria hierarchical structure – a format that facilitates measuring program accomplishments. ¨ Cost, schedule (specific dates), and non-essential tasks are not included in this plan. ¨ Functional and lifecycle inputs are required to integrate the program products and associated processes. ¨ This event-driven approach allows the program elements to be integrated properly and that the management process is based on significant events in the acquisition life cycle, and not on arbitrary calendar events. WILL be placed on contract
- 26. What is anIMP? 26 ¨ The IMP is an event-driven plan which consists of Events, Significant Accomplishments and Accomplishment Criteria, and process definitions (narratives) which encompass the scope of your program ¨ The IMP defines WHAT, WHO and HOW - but not WHEN. ¤ IMP Table ¤ IMP Narratives (process definitions) ¤ Verb Definitions ¨ The IMP may become contractually binding upon contract award.
- 27. IMP Attributes 27 ¨ TheIMP is the program’s Top Level Plan that encompasses the Total Program Scope
- 28. An IMP is: 28 ¨NOT a replacement for the WBS ¨ NOT a new framework for cost and schedule control ¨ NOT necessarily inclusive of all work on a program ¤ An IMP contains only key elements that have been selected to measure program progress ¤ Be sensitive to customer expectations ¨ NOT a complete framework for detail schedules ¤ Though a relationship from the IMP to the detail schedules (IMS) is identified, the IMP does not contain all program work elements ¨ NOT a schedule ¤ An IMP contains no schedule (date) information

- 31. IMP Dictionary Example 31 SampleEvent Descriptions Event Code Full Title and Acronym Description C Preliminary Design Review (PDR) Phase The PDR Phase is the interval of the program in which the requirements are defined and allocated to the lowest testable entity in the system architecture. This phase is to ensure that a selected preliminary design meets all of the applicable requirements with acceptable margin and risk. The correct design option, identified interfaces and verification methods have been satisfactorily specified. It starts with the significant accomplishment of the System-level PDR in which system requirements are finalized and preliminary allocations made to the next level of the hierarchy. All system-level plans beyond those required at IBR also need to be finalized. Successful completion of the PDR Phase concludes with completion of a significant accomplishment related to the lowest testable unit. When configuration items are being procured to existing specifications (COTS and standard products) they may be addressed at the highest level of their integration into a deliverable product and need not have a lower level PDR. Successful completion of the PDR Phase results in establishment of an allocated baseline, the System-level and Segment PDRs have been conducted with action items closed or documented in a plan of closure, and Government approval of associated CDRL deliverables. Government approval for proceeding with detail design has authorized. E Critical Design Review (CDR) Phase The CDR Phase is the interval of the program in which the design compliant with the requirements is defined. This phase is to ensure that a detailed design, including internal and external interfaces, meets all of the applicable requirements with acceptable margin and risk. This phase begins with lowest level configuration item (CI) CDR that is being modified or designed for MUOS and concludes with the System-level CDR. Successful completion of the CDR Phase results in establishing a product baseline, 90% completion of manufacturing drawings, establishing the basis for proceeding with manufacturing, integration, assembly, and verification, the System-level and Segment PDRs have been conducted with action items closed or documented in a plan of closure, and Government approval of associated CDRL deliverables.

- 43. Step 4 a& b Select & Define Key Events 43 ¨ Start with internal guidance, RFP, and proposed strategy to define initial events ¤ Key program measurement points ¤ Communicate the implementation strategy ¨ The program’s key planning members (PM, SE Lead, IPT leads, Planner) meet to define the events ¤ A top-down process that begins with defining each event ¤ Build the “verb table”
- 44. Step 4 c& d Define & Sequence SAs & ACs 44 ¨ Continue the top-down process: ¤ Identify the SAs that are the appropriate measurement points for the event ¤ Identify the specific ACs that are the success criteria for the SAs ¤ Identify any interrelationships and continue to identify any additional SAs or ACs that are needed to support them ¨ Validate with proposal leads ¨ Establish the IMP as the proposal baseline
- 45. Product Development Observations 45 ¨Systems Engineering typically has the bulk of products upfront in a development program, then back off a little when design activities are started in earnest ¨ Design IPT products are typically in a support role up front, then expand as the design products are developed and delivered ¨ Program Management have some products assigned, but can have LOE activities as well ¤ IMP/IMS tries to avoid LOE, but sometimes it is warranted, e.g. BR
- 46. Creating an IMPEvent Table 46 ¨ Once you have a collective set of products (e.g., CDRLs), responsibilities and interdependencies ¤ Capture data for use in generating appropriate Significant Accomplishments for the IMP ¤ Some stickies may be Accomplishment Criteria or lower level tasks ¤ Distribute to responsible parties to review and approve ¤ Configuration-manage the IMP when the program believes it is at a ~90% level.

- 55. What the IMP/IMSTeam Must Do ¨ Embrace the task - it is important ! ¨ Review all processes and standards for conflict elimination, tailoring, streamlining, value added ¨ Focus on discriminators, high risk items, answering the mail ¨ Be creative — give your best in the initial proposal ¨ Seek out lessons learned we can apply ¨ Work as a team and communicate
- 56. IPPD & EventBased Planning make managing the Program easier ¨ Goals and priorities are clear — do the work that supports the upcoming accomplishments first ¤ Earned value (we get paid) based on completing schedule tasks IAW IMP criteria ¤ The network logic disallows starting work before it’s predecessors are done, makes impact assessment easy ¨ Support program streamlining: ¤ If an effort doesn’t support completing an accomplishment leading to an event, why is it in the program? (Shouldn’t even get into the plan) ¤ We’ve already detailed/tailored/streamlined the processes in our process IMP narratives

- 62. Development of anIMS Requires Upfront Planning, Lots of Planning 62 Thinking and Deciding must happen before detailed planning and scheduling ¨ You must know what you’re trying to achieve ¤ Contract requirements, statement of work ¨ A Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) is required ¤ Allows work to be aligned along product lines ¤ Allows cost to be issued and collected along product lines ¨ Organizational decisions must be made ¨ Work assignments must be clearly made ¨ Hardware and software decisions must be made ¨ Make/Buy decisions are required ¨ Tooling decisions are required ¨ Work flow (dependencies) and processes are required ¨ Task durations are required
- 63. The IMP asa Framework for the IMS 63 ¨ Product IMP elements (Events, Accomplishments and Criteria) are embedded within the IMS ¤ Criteria are logically linked to Accomplishments ¤ Accomplishments are logically linked to Events ¤ Each Criteria is preceded by networked schedule tasks n Networked schedule task represent the work plan for a program ¨ The networking function of the scheduling software and the attributes associated with tasks provide dates for IMP elements and define the program schedule ¨ Tasks (unless directed otherwise) address the finite, measurable, discrete steps necessary to produce a product, whether that product is hardware, software or paper ¤ This is what’s referred to as “discrete scope” ¤ “Level-of-effort”, what is accomplished on a routine basis whether discrete scope is accomplished or not, is normally addressed within IMP process narratives
- 64. The IMP isEmbedded in the IMS 64 Event Accomplishment Tasks FY 2004 Oct Nov Dec Jan Feb Mar Apr May Tasks Criteria Criteria
- 65. Activity (Task) 65 ¨ Representswork that consumes resources including time ¨ Has a relationship with other activities that may be presented in a network ¤ Start to Start ¤ Finish to Start ¤ Finish to Finish ¨ Has some uncertainty in the time to complete ¤ All durations are random variables ¤ Use Monte Carlo Simulation to assess the confidence in completing “on or before” a specific date Earliest Finish Most Likely Latest Finish
- 66. Definitions of NetworkTerms 66 ¨ Task relationships ¤ A logical connection between two activities relating start and completion time frames n Finish-to-start most common, others are Start-to-start and Finish-to-finish n Least common is Start-to-finish ¨ Predecessor task ¤ A task which logically precedes another task ¨ Successor task ¤ A task which logically follows another task
- 67. More Definitions ofNetwork Terms 67 ¨ Critical path ¤ A contiguous set of activities in a schedule logic path having the longest duration and least amount of total float, thus defining the minimum project duration ¤ Also the path with the least amount of total float to any milestone or activity ¨ Free Float ¤ Amount of time by which an activity can be delayed without delaying any other task in the network ¨ Total float ¤ Amount of time by which an activity can be delayed on a critical path without delaying the end of the path (whether it’s the project, an activity or a milestone) ¨ What-if analysis ¤ Recalculation of the activity network after temporary insertion of hypothetical network data (revised logic, work schedules, task delays or improvement, etc.) ¨ Time now (data date) ¤ Effective date of status information
- 68. What is Floatand Critical Path? 68 ¨ The Critical Path is formed by task A, C and D (minimum time to complete this group of tasks). ¨ Task B has float and is not critical. Month 0 Month 3 Month 2 Month 1 Month 4 Task A Task D Task C Task B float Early dates Task B Late dates Task B 1 Month 2 Months 1/2 Month 1 Month FS FS FS FS Task C Task A Task D
- 69. IMS Lessons Learned 69 ¨Need a good scheduler who is an expert in the scheduling tool ¤ Many business and technical people are experienced with Project – work closely with them ¨ Get the right level for task durations ¤ A one day task is not the right level for a three year program, but may be good for a two month schedule ¨ Have principle dependencies between tasks (try to minimize) ¤ Interdependencies between groups push integrated schedules to do unwanted things ¨ Avoid event to event tasks ¤ Looks like LOE and not a well thought out plan ¨ Allow enough time for this effort ¨ Understand your critical path, PM will ask about it
