Project safety metrics comparable to that of public libraries CALENDAR YEAR


Making safety a key performance incentive enhanced CMA’s existing safety culture, paving the way for mission success. The last four incineration-based chemical agent disposal facilities achieved the highest recognition from the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s Voluntary Protection Programs.

contractors chose solutions that not only met programmatic milestones, but also provided the quickest reduction in overall risk and ensured safety for the workers, public and environment. Despite the routine conduct of highly hazardous operations with lethal chemicals, the


system contractors were able to


accomplish total recordable injury rates comparable to those of public libraries, while fi nishing ahead of the projected contract schedule. (See Figure 2.)


CONCLUSION T e CMA’s collaboration with contrac- tors


resulted in chemical the safe destruction


of most of the U.S. chemical weapons stockpile of more than 30,000 tons of lethal


agents in more than 3.4 million munitions. Lessons learned 104


regarding this contracting strategy have been shared with ACWA to assist


its continuing mission to destroy the remaining agents at two storage sites.


T e recalibration of goals and performance


objectives between the


Army and the contractors demonstrates CMA’s capacity to engage


and fully


integrate all institutional stakeholders. T e result was not only a life-cycle management approach in its true sense, but also strategic unity between the Army By

and industrial this


CMA successfully demonstrated the competencies necessary to ensure the best value to the taxpayer while making the country, and ultimately the world, a safer place.
