3. Work with your supervisor to document your education, training, and experience<br />

needs on your Individual Development Plan (IDP). Additional information on the<br />

IDP may be found under the “Document Requirements for the AL&TWF” section<br />

of this handbook.<br />

4. Communicate your results. While proceeding through the acquisition career<br />

management process, you must document each and every step in your <strong>Career</strong><br />

<strong>Management</strong> Information File (CMIF). Files for military and civilian workforce<br />

members are discussed in detail under the “Document Requirements for the<br />

AL&TWF” section of this handbook.<br />

The Competency Model<br />

A key component in integrating all of the processes that make up the ACDP are the 27<br />

leadership competencies and the ACF functional competencies necessary for success in<br />

acquisition positions. Leadership competencies coupled with functional competencies<br />

comprise the common language of the ACDP. They communicate standard career<br />

development information across all ACFs and organizations. The Competency Model<br />

uses the 27 leadership competencies developed by the Office of Personnel <strong>Management</strong><br />

(OPM), essential for successful performance of federal sector leaders, including<br />

Acquisition Workforce leaders. These competencies are based on extensive research of<br />

the attributes of successful executives in both the private and public sectors. By applying<br />

the ACDP, you can identify your strengths and weaknesses and determine where<br />

improvement is needed for career progression. See the list of Executive Core<br />

Qualifications and Corresponding Competencies at the end of this section, page 60.<br />
