<strong>2012</strong> annual report <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> stakeholders<br />

By <strong>the</strong> spring of <strong>2012</strong>, <strong>the</strong> <strong>PEO</strong> <strong>C3T</strong><br />

had met its Fiscal Year (FY) <strong>2012</strong> financial<br />

benefits targets for Value Engineering<br />

(VE) and Lean Six Sigma (LSS),<br />

collectively realizing more than<br />

$145 million in cost reductions<br />

(savings and avoidance) from<br />

Fy <strong>2012</strong> through Fy 2018.<br />

The VE target is set<br />

annually at 1.5 percent of <strong>the</strong><br />

<strong>PEO</strong>’s <strong>to</strong>tal obligation authority,<br />

while <strong>the</strong> LSS target is 2 percent. In<br />

recent his<strong>to</strong>ry, <strong>the</strong> VE target has been<br />

met only twice before, while <strong>the</strong> LSS<br />

target has never before been met.<br />

Project Direc<strong>to</strong>r Communications<br />

Security (PD COMSEC) has been<br />

<strong>the</strong> largest single contribu<strong>to</strong>r <strong>to</strong> this<br />

success, identifying in excess of $100<br />

million in financial benefits between<br />

LSS and VE. PD COMSEC has also<br />

partnered with Tobyhanna <strong>Army</strong> Depot<br />

on projects related <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> receipt, s<strong>to</strong>rage,<br />

maintenance, issuance and accountability<br />

of COMSEC equipment.<br />

<strong>PEO</strong> <strong>C3T</strong>’s Continuous<br />

Process Improvement (CPI)<br />

program has undergone<br />

some changes over <strong>the</strong><br />

past year <strong>to</strong> better improve<br />

<strong>the</strong> efficiency of operations<br />

by optimizing key processes<br />

and identifying and executing<br />

CPI projects. As a result, employee Steve<br />

Wisniewski was able <strong>to</strong> set a new record<br />

for <strong>PEO</strong> <strong>C3T</strong>, completing his Green<br />

Belt project in only 29 days. The project<br />

sought <strong>to</strong> create a standard procedure<br />

for implementing NetFlow as a Warfighter<br />

Information Network-Tactical (WIN-T)<br />

NetOps troubleshooting <strong>to</strong>ol, yielding<br />

both tactical benefits and cost savings.<br />

$145<br />

million in<br />

cost reductions<br />

from FY <strong>2012</strong><br />

through FY<br />

2018<br />

“LSS is a very worthwhile<br />

endeavor,” said Wisniewski,<br />

an employee of <strong>the</strong><br />

Communications-Electronics<br />

Research, Development<br />

and Engineering Center<br />

(CERDEC) who is matrixed<br />

<strong>to</strong> Project Manager WIN-T. “It<br />

teaches you how <strong>to</strong> organize<br />

and present your process <strong>to</strong><br />

leadership so <strong>the</strong>y can make a<br />

viable decision <strong>to</strong> implement.”<br />

Although <strong>the</strong> VE and LSS<br />

targets have been exceeded,<br />

<strong>PEO</strong> <strong>C3T</strong>’s responsibility <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

Soldier and <strong>the</strong> taxpayer does<br />

not end. We are continuing<br />

<strong>to</strong> identify and execute<br />

efficiencies, and <strong>to</strong> train our<br />

workforce <strong>to</strong> do <strong>the</strong> same.<br />
