BUILD. NURTURE. SUSTAIN.
ACC is continuing to work hard to make contracting a core competency within the Army. We have actively worked with the force of nearly 800 active-duty Soldiers who will help ensure that the Army main- tains a professional, competent military Army Acquisition Corps.
Both our military and civilian work- force must have the tools and training to continue to develop within the Army at a few different approaches on how to do this in a restrictive budget environ- ment that may impact training funds. - tual mentor program that will match our junior employees with our senior con- tracting professionals. This is still a work in progress, but we are excited about the
- ties of Practice, which collect best-in-class solutions and advisors in various contract- ing functions who can guide our junior solutions by exposing them to approaches from our more seasoned experts.
Q. What sort of processes are in place to be responsive to the constant changes in mission and the demands of Congress?
A. The acquisition environment in which we operate has always been very dynamic. We’ve optimized our structure and capa- bilities so we are able to support both the operating forces and the generating forces and quickly respond to changes in mission sets and workload that our cus- tomers require.
We’re implementing new tools and busi- ness processes that will give us greater visibility and capability to manage work- load across the command and track the readiness of our workforce. These tools will also provide greater transparency to our customers so that they can become a full partner and team member and take proactive ownership of the contracting process as we execute the contracting functions for them.
Congress continues to require greater accountability and is one of the many external stakeholders that impact how we operate, and we will continually strive to the best of our ability to respond to its requirements and inquiries.
Q. Where do you want the ACC to be at its 10th anniversary?
A. To be recognized as the preeminent and extraordinary contracting organization in
we are more than just paper pushers; - tion providers. If a Soldier shoots it, drives use sound judgment, diligence, and care in acquiring the best possible equipment and services for the Soldier. We are agile, in our use of taxpayers’ dollars and imple- menting public policy.
Q. What would you like to see Magazine cover more of?
A. Two things: the essential role the requiring activities and our custom- ers have throughout the entire contract life cycle; and more features on our - ees. Too often, customers view the contracting function as the only element requirement properly is crucial to the suc- cess of any contracting process as well as monitoring the vendors’ performance to make sure the Army is getting what it asked for and what it needed. Individual - tion and make the process work; I would like to see their efforts highlighted more.
