The AFFTC at Edwards Air Force Base, California, is tasked to support the Air Force Materiel Command (AFMC) mission by conducting and supporting research, test and evaluation of both manned and unmanned aerospace systems. The Edwards Flight Test Range is located in the western Mojave Desert.
Enter TOC Project Management! Edwards' leadership understood that introducing a new way of doing business to their workforce would be a significant challenge. After carefully researching all of their alternatives, their final solution was to move to TOC PM. In the middle of 2001, they entered into a multi-year on-site support contract with AGI, using Concerto software from Realization Technologies (formally known as Speed to Market Engines, Inc.).
After training a cadre of internal experts and thoroughly testing the methodology and supporting software, the team proceeded to conduct two parallel multi-project implementations in two of their test organizations.
This presentation discusses the path they took to implement TOC PM in each of two portfolios. Reviewed are difficulties encountered, lessons learned from those experiences and the initial successes that led them to move on the to the next major phase in 2003.
