Performance Details - Selective Service System

Performance Goals
1. Plan an AO Mobilization Prototype Exercise for FY 2006.
Was the goal achieved? No. The exercise was postponed until FY 2009.
Results: Planning activities are scheduled to begin in FY 2006.
Discussion:
It was noted in last year’s report that a reassessment of the Agency’s
business rules was conducted and the planning was suspended until
the results could be assessed. The results have now been finalized and
the extent to which the business rules have changed requires a new
iteration of many of the Agency’s major procedural manuals which
includes much of the software dealing with induction processing. As
a consequence, it has been decided not to limit the parameters of the
next exercise to reestablishing an Area Office, but to build an exercise
that will encompass the activities of the entire delivery system.
The plans for the exercise will entail designing a total mobilization
exercise that will be tailored to evaluate the SSS’ mandates for a
mobilization of any type. The sheer size and detail of the exercise will
take approximately 18 months to produce. The final product will be
played in the field in FY 2009.
