WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT


EXPERIENCE INDUSTRY


DOD’s Public-Private Talent Experience participants spend up to six months with an industry partner.

he Army is successful in meeting its mission in many thanks to its industry partners. Te Army relies on industry to be responsive to needs and to mobilize quickly. Industry also relies on its government partners to plan and be agile and open to creativity. Tis reliance requires a great understanding of how industry and government work.


Enter the Department of Defense’s Public-Private Talent Experience (PPTE), a developmental program for civilian acquisition workforce professionals where selected participants spend up to six months with an industry partner performing an acquisition-related assignment.


“I think it is important for the [Army Acquisition Workforce] to have a greater understanding of the larger defense community and how topics go up to congressional leaders for their awareness,” said Wai Kwan Chung, program manager with the Joint Program Executive Office for Chemical, Biological, Radiologi- cal and Nuclear Defense, who participated in the DOD PPTE in 2022. Chung spent three months with the National Defense Industrial Association (NDIA), one of several companies and organizations that participates in the program.


DOWN TO BUSINESS DOD PPTE participants are acquisition professionals with high leadership potential. Tey are consid- ered experts in their respective functional areas because of their knowledge, skills and abilities. Applicants must be in grades GS-13 through GS-15 (or broadband equivalent), and Defense Acquisition Workforce Improvement Act certified (or within the grace period).


“PPTE promotes increased communication between government and industry, enables participants to gain a better understanding of industry’s business operations and challenges, and facilitates the sharing of innovative best practices,” said Kristine Faria, DOD PPTE program manager for the Army Director of Acquisition Career Management (DACM) Office. “If you’re familiar with the Training With Industry (TWI) program for our military members, PPTE is similar, but for the civilian population.”
