What is the Tenure and Program Management Agreement (T&PMA)?

All PMs/PdMs are required to sign a T&PMA prior to assuming command.  This agreement acknowledges their role, responsibility, and accountability to the specific goals of their program and establishes the tenure of the individual in the position.  By signing the T&PMA, the PM/PdM agrees to complete the prescribed tenure period and abide by the Acquisition Program Baseline, requirements identified in Capabilities Documentation, and other programmatic expectations identified and agreed to as significant but not found in the approved program documentation.  The T&PMA is signed by the PM/PdM, their respective PEO, and the AAE.
