- 8. Provide a brief summary and justification for this investment, including a brief description of how this closes in part or in whole an identified agency performance gap.
- On January 18th, 2006, the HHS Secretary announced a far-reaching vision for the Transformation of the Commissioned Corps (CC) to fulfill core public health missions of the Department. The Secretary also prescribed a set of human resource (HR) management practices which would greatly enhance the CC's ability to fulfill those missions. The strategic HR practices require business processes and IT infrastructure that do not currently exist. To fill this performance gap, the CC Force Management System (CCFMS) was introduced. CCFMS will work with reengineered business processes and more HR practices to position HHS and the CC to better fulfill core missions and increase its central management activities. The CCFMS will leverage HHS-wide resources and existing assets in order to close several gaps. Numerous benefits include: * The ability to match officers to positions and readiness activities. * Defining position requirements with fidelity. * Enable the CC to conduct work force planning to determine the required size and composition of the CC and to make recruitment, training and retention plans accordingly. * Streamline and more effectively target recruiting resources. * Eliminate inconsistent, non-comparable training information and track all training and career management activities throughout an officer's career. * Improve the timeliness and FTE efficiency of promotion management, assimilation, retirement, appointment and other career management processes. * More effectively manage readiness and deployment operations. * Reduce time spent correcting and working around shortcomings in data integrity. * And, improve interoperability within the scope of the CC enterprise. CCFMS is still in the development phase. A recently-completed independent requirements analysis: * Provides maps and models of various business processes required for desired functionality covering the areas of career management and training, assignments, position description and review, workforce planning, recruitment, and readiness/deployment. * Defines a conceptual model of a target system, in order to optimize new and existing capabilities. * Identifies current assets that could potentially be retained in the target environment. * Provides a high-level roadmap documenting for a path from the as-is to the to-be state. Requested funding will be used to realize the systems required to implement the reengineered processes.

SUMMARY OF SPEND
- 1. Provide the total estimated life-cycle cost for this investment by completing the following table. All amounts represent budget authority in millions, and are rounded to three decimal places. Federal personnel costs should be included only in the row designated Government FTE Cost, and should be excluded from the amounts shown for Planning, Full Acquisition, and Operation/Maintenance. The total estimated annual cost of the investment is the sum of costs for Planning, Full Acquisition, and Operation/Maintenance. For Federal buildings and facilities, life-cycle costs should include long term energy, environmental, decommissioning, and/or restoration costs. The costs associated with the entire life-cycle of the investment should be included in this report.
All amounts represent Budget Authority
Note: For the cross-agency investments, this table should include all funding (both managing partner and partner agencies).
Government FTE Costs should not be included as part of the TOTAL represented. Cost Type Py-1 & Earlier

- 2. Will this project require the agency to hire additional FTE's?
- no
- 3. If the summary of spending has changed from the FY2008 President's budget request, briefly explain those changes.
- Spending changes result from a shift from a SOA architecture approach to adoption of Coast Guard's Direct Access HR solution (PeopleSoft-based, pre-existing uniformed services functionality) Note that the original baseline costs of $14.849MM did not include the current PSC estimated costs of approximately $2M per year to maintain the existing Corp legacy systems. If these costs had been included in the original baseline, the total life cycle costs would have reflected $34.849MM, of which $20.000M would have been O&M related. Rebaseline estimates utilizing adoption of Direct Access are based upon a rough order of magnitude and more refined estimates are under development as this solution moves forward. The new baseline total cost of $19.084 MM reflect a reduction in PSC expenditures from the estimated $2MM cost to maintain legacy systems to $0.5MM in PSC expenditures to maintain a reduced PSC-supported IT infrastructure. This is based on the assumption that PSC IT costs are reduced by an estimated $1.5MM annual amount as a result of the Corps legacy systems migration to the Coast Guard HRIS.

- 6. Will the application leverage existing components and/or applications across the Government (i.e., FirstGov, Pay.Gov, etc)?
- yes
- 6.a. If yes, please describe.
- The CCFMS system will leverage the existing US Coast Guard (USCG) Direct Access system and its associated infrastructure. The USCG Direct Access system uses the PeopleSoft COTS product to perform a variety of force management and human resource functions. Since both the USCG and the Commissioned Corps are uniformed services many of their needs in these functional areas are quite similar. The Commissioned Corps will therefore use the USCG Direct Access system as a foundation that will be tailored to meet the Commissioned Corps requirements. The CCFMS system will be hosted and operated by the USCG following a shared service model.
PART TWO
RISK
Answer the following questions to describe how you are managing investment risks.
- 1. Does the investment have a Risk Management Plan?
- yes
- 1.a. If yes, what is the date of the plan?
- 2007-05-22
- 1.b. Has the Risk Management Plan been significantly changed since last year's submission to OMB?
- yes
- 1.c. If yes, describe any significant changes:
- Relative risks have shifted based upon a change in the Alternative chosen - adoption of a Coast Guard pre-existing PeopleSoft HR system significantly mitigates many risks due to the minimization or elimination of development risks. Schedule delays and cost variance risks are minimized through adoption of an existing HR system. The original costs were based on a SOA approach that used existing Corps legacy systems. These cost estimates were rejected as unrealistic by the CIO Council in February 2007. The approach was rejected by the CIO Council in favor of a PeopleSoft-based HR system. Revised costs are higher due to the need to migrate data off legacy systems but this effort will result in an integrated, PeopleSoft-based HRIS that has been approved by the HHS CIO Council, the HHS ITIRB and OMB. Cost variance will be reduced due to the adoption of a deployed system. Schedule variance will be reduced due to the adoption of a deployed system. It should be noted that the proposed adoption of Direct Access is consistent with the HHS Target Enterprise Architecture and the OMB FEA.
- 3. Briefly describe how investment risks are reflected in the life cycle cost estimate and investment schedule:
- The Risk Management Plan will be updated in the analysis as part of the development roadmap using the agreed-upon SDLC methodology. This analysis will build upon cost, schedule, migration, and acquisition issues negotiated with the US Coast Guard. Once investment risks are better identified, mitigation strategies will be developed and resulting percentage cost and schedule variations will be applied to the baseline cost and schedule details to provide a risk-adjusted project assessment. Overall, the principal risks to the adoption of the Coast Guard Direct Access HR system include: 1. Direct Access may not fully meet the HR business of the Commissioned Corps 2. Direct Access will cost the Corps more than was initially anticipated 3. Direct Access will take longer to adopt than is anticipated The SDLC-based analysis of Corps requirements, data sources, existing IT systems, and pertinent Direct Access functionality began August 16, 2007 and will result in a joint Corps-Coast Guard decision to implement an IAA in support of adoption of the Direct access system. The business case and requirements analysis efforts will be completed in December 2007. Part of this effort will be to identify a logical migration strategy and schedule/ costs for legacy Corps IT systems and their data. The analysis will be performed up-front before migration of systems and adoption of Direct Access HRIS begins. This will cause an initial delay in systems implementation as we plan ahead, but will allow for a better and more rapid transition once migration begins. The schedule reflects these changes as well as the adoption of a pre-exixting integrated system.
