(U) NRO GROUND ENTERPRISE BLOCK 1

(U) Purpose

(U) Introduction

Operations partnership between GED and the other
elements of the NRO in collaboration with NSA and NGA will help
transform the NRO ground architecture.
(0) Vision

(U)“A fully integrated ground architecture where information is
virtual, assured, available on demand, and globally accessible to

authorized users empowered with the tools and services necessary to
generate tailored, timely, trusted, and actionable intelligence products.”

923 FOP-SEGRETIOIFAGINOFORN-

(U) Mission

(U)“To develop, deliver, and sustain a responsive, secure,
interoperable, and integrated ground architecture while collaboratively
providing timely, value-added, trusted information to users worldwide
through innovative solutions.”

(U) Desired End State

(U) “An enterprise that operates as efficiently as the best commercial
IT and knowledge service companies enabling authorized users to
receive, task, and query trusted information on-demand to improve the
‘speed and execution of decisions from anywhere in the world.”

(U) In order to capitalize on this strategy, the directorate has
organized itself into functional lines of business consisting of Command
and Control, Mission Management, Mission Processing, and Mission
Frameworks. This GED alignment will enable our end-state vision of
providing a common, virtual intelligence network that authorized users
can leverage not only to obtain the best available intelligence
information but also to be more responsive to the mission.

(U) Transition

(U) The transition from the current NRO ground-related GEOINT
and SIGINT MSAs into four new functionally-aligned ground MSAs
will begin during FY 2009. Existing and future content will be aligned
into one of four functional MSAs—Command and Control; Mission
Management; Processing; and Mission Frameworks. The realignment
enables improved insight into NRO ground systems acquisition
management, and a structured ground baseline program which links key
dependencies directly to current and future space systems’ MSAs of
record.

(U/POUS) Finding 4: The COMM Program has procedures in place
to measure efficiency and demonstrates improved cost effectiveness in
achieving Program goals cach year. It has established a clear measure of

cost effectiveness: Bits per Second per Dollar.

(U/FOUO) Finding 5: The space and terrestrial elements of the
Program collaborate and coordinate well with related programs,
particularly in day-to-day operations.

(U/FEUO) Finding 6: Timely, quality independent reviews of the
bulk of the COMM Program are available. Many of the reviews indicate
that the Program is performing its mission very well and provides
excellent customer services; others identify issues that could affect, or
have affected, customer satisfaction, network security, or other
outcomes. In particular, the report on COMM Special Programs Group
(SPG) (formally known as Mission Integration Office (MIO)) indicated
substantial problems with that element of the Program. However, the
COMM Program has taken significant steps to correct strategic planning
and management problems, including those identified in the 1G report on

(U/POUE) Finding 8: The NRO COMM Program clearly defines
deliverables and regularly collects and uses performance information.
However, the IC needs to improve budget presentation such that
resource needs are well understood and more clearly linked to

performance.

(U/FF@US) Finding 9: NRO did not receive a clean audit opinion of
its Financial Statements for the year ending in 2005. NRO is taking
Proactive steps to address the deficiencies noted im the FY 2005
Financial Statements Audit by implementing an aggressive remediation
Plan towards a clean audit opinion in F¥ 2008,

(U/FOUS) Finding 11: As of the FY 2006 Program Assessment
evaluation, the COMM Program met most of its long-term and annual
goals.

© (U//FOUSO) The Program is meeting annual goals and is on track to
meet the long-term targets for Terrestrial Network Capacity.

© (U/FOUG) The Program is demonstrating efficiencies in achieving
Program goals each year.

(U/FOUO) Finding 6: Program partners commit to the goals of the
AS&T Program. The Program collaborates and coordinates well with
related Programs, and conducts intensive coordination efforts with other
federal space and science and technology agencies. For example,
AS&T's practice of assigning personnel to customer organizations to
assist with technology transitions demonstrates a clear commitment to
program success. AS&T would benefit from a more structured
mechanism that documents feedback from customers.

(U/FFOUO) Finding 7: Timely, quality independent reviews of the
bulk of the AS&T Program are available and are largely positive.
However, OMB recommends a rigorous independent assessment of the
actual impact that AS&T programs have had.

(U/POUO) Finding 8: The AS&T Program evaluates the benefits of
alternative investments, uses a prioritization process to guide budget
requests, and uses management processes to maintain Program quality.

(U) Follow-Up Actions (Improvement Pian)

(U) As a result of the Program Assessment evaluation, the NRO and
the AS&T Program are initiating the following actions to improve the
performance of the Program.

(U) Follow-Up Action 1: Initiating an independent, methodical study
of the actual impact of AS&T programs.

© (U/POUE) (Year Began: 2007. Action taken, but not completed).

AS&T has imitiated the study. An “early look” was delivered in

Sep 2008. AS&T expects to clove this action with delivery of the

Final Report in May 2009.

(U) Follow-Up Action 2: Clearly documenting Strategy, ‘Technology,
and Engineering Panel (STEP) findings.

© (U/POUO) (Year Began: 2007. Completed). The STEP evaluations

conducted in Jan 2008 and Jun 2008 used an improved process which

produces better documentation of panel findings, AS&T plans to
continue to use the improved process.

(U) Follow-up Action 3: Establishing a more structured mechanism

“that documents feedback from customers.

© (U/FORO) (Year Began: 2007. Action taken, but not completed).
AS&T will address this action in concert with the study being
conducted for Follow-Up Action 1. AS&T expects to close this action
with delivery of the Final Report in May 2009.

(U) Follow-Up Action 4: Reviewing measures that have moving

averages to determine if there is a time period that is more meaningful.
© (U//FOUC) (Year Began: 2007. Action taken, but not completed).
AS&T does not recommend changes to the measures at this time, but
will reassess during 2009. AS&T will close this action after that
reassessment.

(U) Follow-Up Action 5: Addressing material weaknesses and
reportable conditions identified in independent audits with a goal of
regaining an unqualified opinion in the FY 2009 audit.

© (U) (Year began 2007: Action taken, but not completed). NRO has

(U) Project Description

(U) This project funds the EELV Launch Capability (ELC) contract to
maintain the capability to launch government missions. It is separate
from launch vehicle hardware, which is funded by the EELV Launch

i it arrangement is necessary because the
yobust commercial market envisioned in the original EELV construct in
1998 never materialized and the government is now the primary EELV
customer. The funds in this project support retention of critical skills at
the EELV contractor facilities and at the launch sites, and maintain
proficiency of the booster contractor workforce.

(U) The landscape of US launch infrastructure changed significantly
in December 2006 when the United Launch Alliance (ULA) was
officially established to merge the launch processes of both
Lockheed-Martin and Bocing into a single joint venture. ULA maintains
‘both launch vehicle families, Atlas and Delta EELV, in order to
strengthen assured access to space and to provide optimum flexibility

(U) The NRO and the Air Force are full partners in ensuring EELV
represents the NRO's 30 percent share of the EELV ELC contract. It is
imperative that this funding remain in the NRO budget in order. to
maintain its influence and involvement in essential launch processes and

activities required for launch assurance. NRO’s fiscal contribution to
ELC fosters partnership with the USAF, enables insight into USAF
launch investment and infrastructure planning, provides the NRO a
voice in award fee boards, and affords NRO some control of the nation’s

(U) The NRO expects the project to accomplish the following in
FY 2010:

(U) FY 2010 Workforce Highlights

(U) A key initiative for recruitment and staffing is for the NRO to
Continue its effort to establish its own, distinct cateer service. This
initiative will provide management continuity, workforce stability,
long-term perspective, and critical space-acquisition skills and
experience (engineering, program management, contracting, budgeting)
to execute the NRO mission. The NRO will develop an implementation
plan that provides for support. and servicing of this new workforce
clement, as well as the distribution of these positions across the NRO

enterprise.

This table is classified SBEREPYNGPORN-

(U) NRO Civilian Employment Plan

(U) The Consolidated Employment Pian concept currently focuses on
civilian positions and personnel funded by each agency. Innovative
human resource are needed to support the NRO’s
“crudie-to-grave” approach to space systems management. It is
imperative for the NRO to have a workforce that is both conversant with
the satellite life-cycle and available for longer assignments. The NRO
workforce utilization requires fluid human resource processes and
programs that are uncharacteristic of most federal organizations.
Initiatives are underway that will provide a comprehensive and
mission-focused corporate strategy to ensure the NRO has the right
workforce to meet its evolving mission. The following paragraphs
address the initiatives in greater detail.

10 —FOP-BEGRETISHFONOFORN-

(U) Implement a Corporate Approach to Workforce Analysis and
Planning Aligned to Mission Imperatives: The NRO will conduct
workforce analysis of the NRO core mission occupations. The
workforce will be assessed along occupational lines, taking into account
parent agency demographics, trends and workforce initiatives. The end
result will be workforce planning that is coordinated and integrated by
occupation across the parent agencies. Furthermore, the NRO will
promote a consistent approach toward developing an acquisition
workforce that is highly trained, capable, and meets certification

established by each parent agency. In order to accomplish
this, the NRO established an NRO Acquisition Workforce Development
Board that will serve as the NRO focal point for developing, promoting,
and overseeing coherent policies and processes across the NRO to
proactively recruit, develop, and retain its acquisition personnel.

(U) Acquire the diverse, high-quality workforce required to meet
NRO mission imperatives: A key initiative for recruitment and staffing
is the proposal to augment NRO staffing with 100 NRO career service

employees. This initiative will provide management continuity,
workforce stability, long-term perspective, and critical space-acquisition
skills/experience (engineering, program management, contracting,
budgeting) to execute the NRO mission. In addition, the NRO will
implement a corporate, integrated Strategic Staffing Strategy to ensure
the organization is staffed with high-caliber technical, non-technical,
and support personnel. The Strategic Staffing Strategy will align staffing,
with business goals, calculating costs, defining requirements, and
measuring the effectiveness of decisions. It provides for aggressive

” initiatives to expand DoD and IC awareness of the NRO
mission and career opportunities. These initiatives will help identify 2
diverse pool of individuals with specific talents and skill sets to fill

(U) Lead and develop the workforce to achieve peak

: The NRO must ensure that its employees receive
training, education, and development opportunities directly relevant to
NRO’s mission, and must consider the development of its transient
workforce as future leaders and employees of the IC. The NRO will
design, develop, and deliver leadership and professional-development
programs to meet the needs of its workforce and align to leadership and
discipline competencies published by the ODNI. Therefore, the NRO
will engage with parent elements in developing the workforce through

the Talent Management Initiative. We will sustain an Air Force-NRO
Assignment Planning Board to assess Air Force officers at the two-year
point for intemal moves that are intended to complement career
progression. The NRO will continue to use the Workforce Management
Board to oversee the CIA workforce that ensures equitable distribution
of CIA employees/positions to fill high-priority mission requirements.
(U) Sustain and retain a peak-performing workforce committed
to the mission: In the coming years, the NRO is implementing and
maintaining compensation and performance management systems that
are specific to each parent agency (Defense Civilian Intelligence
Personnel System, National Security Personnel System, CIA, DNI, etc).
‘Tailored training courses on each pay-for-performance system are under
prepare managers and supervisors for managing and
developing each segment of the workforce in a manner that maintains
the integrity of the systems. The NRO will also provide transformation
support to senior managers through a leadership development program
that will give them the requisite skills to be successful change agents in a
changing environment.

(U) NRO Employment Demographics

(U) Grade Distribution by Age: The NRO grade distribution is a
reflection of the technical expertise required to achieve its space mission
with a majority of the workforce residing in the senior grades: GS-13
thru senior executives. Furthermore, the NRO average age is consistent
with the trend in the federal government with NRO employees in the
late-40’s to mid-50’s bracket holding senior ranking positions with 15
plus years of service.

(U) Retirement: As is the case in many federal organizations, the
number of new employees, in terms of occupation experience, and the
number of experienced officers eligible or approaching eligibility for
retirement are growing. Of the NRO current workforce, 53 percent are
cligible or will become eligible to retire in the next 10 years; and
30 percent have five years or less experience with their parent agencies.
Each mission area could be impacted if retirement-cligible government
civilians were to retire en masse.

" FOP BEGRETIOIFHOINOFORN-

(U) Workforce Positions: The NRO is requesting authorization for
100 additional NRO DoD FTE to establish a separate NRO civilian
career service and to improve the execution of its mission. These
personnel will support the hiring and long-term development of
personnel for the mission critical occupations—engineering, program
management, contracting, and budgeting. The 100 FTE will be phased in
over the course of three fiscal years beginning in FY 2010.

(U) NRP Workforce Positions by Budget Category: The NRO
workforce distribution reflects the primary role that acquisition plays in
the NRO mission. A majority of civilian employees work in mission
support occupations and the remaining civilians work in core mission
areas: research and development, engineering, information technology,
and operations. Forty-seven percent of the NRO total positions are
aligned under the Enterprise Management and Support budget category

(U) Staffing and Demographic Trends: NRO fill rates have
declined over the period FY 2005 - FY 2008 from an annual average of
86 percent to 85 percent for civilian positions and 88 percent to
82 percent for military positions. Fill rates vary by parent agency and

ion and reflect parent agency workforce initiatives and capacity
to maintain pace with NRO position growth. Even though the NRO
budgets for position growth, the ability to fill new positions depends on
whether the parent agencies can support increased personnel demand.

(U) In the past, Air Force military assignments were four year tours
exempt from deployment. Due to policy changes and organizational
restructuring of Air Force personnel assigned to the NRO, military tours
are no longer exempt from deployments and the historical 100 percent
fill rate policy has been impacted by more stringent guidelines for Air
Force assignments. Given that the Air Force military personnel account
for significant portions of NRO mission critical occupations (i¢.,
34 percent of acquisitions and engineers, 55 percent of operations, and
78 percent of information technology), any decrease in manning rates
will impact NRO’s mission capabilities.

(U) The NRO government civilian population consists primarily of
technical occupations. As such, the NRO grade distribution is
appropriate for the experience and education level required for technical
occupations. The civilian population within GS-12 and above grades

(WU) Findings

(U/POUSO) Finding 1: The NRO Facilities Program is moderately
effective in carrying out its mission to manage, lease, construct, and
maintain facilities. The Program is generally well managed, and the
leadership actively secks to address any identified problems. The
Program's purpose is clear, is not duplicative of other public or private
sector efforts, and outputs reach the intended beneficiaries.

(U/FOUO) Finding 2: The lack of a centrally-managed Facilities
Program has promoted inefficiencies; hindered prioritization and
monitoring of facilities funding and requirements at the corporate level; and
hampered the Program's efforts to make clear the impact of funding
decisions on performance. NRO is addressing these issues by centralizing

ip NEO sey an nee NRO bx pcs Hower,

NRO Enterprise Transformation was not fully in place when the Program
Assessment was conducted, and many details were still unclear. NRO will
need to devote significant management attention to implementing these
changes and ensuring that the facilities program realizes the expected
Denes ofthe reorganization.

(U/FOUC) Finding 4: The NRO Facilities Program uses

long-term/annual outcome and efficiency measures, with ambitious
targets, to assess performance. The Program has achieved its goals to a
large extent. As of the 2008 Program Assessment evaluation, the
Facilities Program had met two of three long-term/annual targets in
FY 2006; had met all long-term/annual targets and one of two efficiency
targets in FY 2007; and was on track to achieve FY 2008 targets.

(U) Follow-Up Actions (Improvement Plan)

(U) Description

(U) The NRO brings unique core capabilities to bear in support of
national security objectives by:

* (U) Acquiring and operating the most capable set of satellite

intelligence collection platforms ever built.

° (SHREL-FO-USA-FYEY

© (U) Providing a variety of special ground processing applications
and tools to support the IC and DoD.

(U) The US is arguably more reliant on overhead collection than ever
before. To a large extent, satellite reconnaissance is the foundation for
situational awareness, and as such, it is an essential underpinning

collection; SO en eee nleciaes w ebiaeinn
upon the territorial sovereignty of other nations. It also enables users to
quickly focus on almost any point on the globe to rapidly respond to
emerging situations or to monitor ongoing events. The NRO provides
direct support to the war on terrorism, deployed military forces, and
other IC and DoD activities requiring near real-time situational
awareness and sustained high resolution/high sensitivity collection
capability 24-hours-a-day, 7-days-per-week.

(U) In times of heightened tension, crisis, or even humanitarian or
natural disasters, the value of NRO systems is even greater. At this time,
NRO systems are not only the first responders of choice for the DoD, IC,
or key decisionmakers— they are often the only source of information.

(U) Strategic Direction

(U) The 2009 National Reconnaissance Strategic Plan defines a new
value model for the NRO: the NRO is now focused as much on what it
does with the data it collects as it is on collecting it; and programs must
make good business sense as well as good technical sense. In addition to
continuing to design and build state-of-the-art satellites that provide
unparalleled information advantage for the Nation and our users, the
emphasis is on accelerating the delivery of innovative ground
tesponsive to dynamic and rapidly changing user needs. The NRO is
working to implement fully integrated space and ground architectures
characterized by synergistic, cross-domain mission management,
multi-INT data fusion at the source, common processing, and closer
linkages with other IC and DoD technical architectures and functions.
The NRO is also leveraging its extensive ability to move data, both on
the ground and in space, to enable its mission partners to more
effectively execute their missions.

(U) The NRO is moving in new directions while continuing to build
on its heritage. The 2009 Strategic Plan establishes the corporate
framework for planning and executing the technical initiatives required
to achieve the NRO’s long-term goals and objectives. It defines

corporate imperatives that are fundamental to the

s success; it establishes investment guidelines for
aie eriny cd wniget lonniags and tt defines new contort technical
Priorities to guide lower-level program development. Equally
significant, it recognizes the most critical element in the NRO’s
long-term success is its workforce.

next several NRO missions, since this variant of the Delta IV has limited
flight experience. OSL has reflected these considerations in its
long-term Launch Service Timeliness targets.

(U) Finding 7: The NRO is making progress in aligning investments
with Program goals. However, significant work in achieving resource
transparency as well as budget and performance integration must still be
done. In addition, the NRO does not currently have a clean audit
opinion, and it will need to continue to implement an aggressive

(U//FOVE) Finding 8: The cost for the Eastern Processing Facility
(EPF) has grown significantly above the original estimates. OSL has
identified no schedule or technical issues with the facility. However,
OSL management needs to focus on ensuring that costs remain stable in
the future. Furthermore, because OSL plans to accept risk in other areas
to accommodate this cost growth, OSL management will need to focus
additional attention on managing this risk.

(U/POUSC) Finding 9: Although such decisions may be based on
sound rationale, OMB is concerned that the NRO does not have an
explicit process and associated criteria for identifying the conditions for
pursuing a satellite program office-acquired launch service (such as
delivery on orbit) instead of an OSL-procured launch service.

(U) Follow-Up Actions (Improvement Plan)

(U) As a result of the Program Assessment evaluation, the NRO and
performance of the Program.

(U/AOUO) Follow-Up Action 1: Improving NRO Launch Program
coordination with the USAF on the EELV program by ensuring that
1) the NRO has visibility into all tasks under the ELC contract which

336 FOP-GECRETHOIONOFERN-

affect launch schedule, mission success, or ELS funding requirements;
2) impacts of funding priorities for ELC are coordinated with OSL prior
to execution of changes to the current baseline contract, 3) the NRO and
USAF can, through an established tealistic funding
requirements for ELC; and 4) the NRO and USAF develop an EELV
strategy to meet NRO launch requirements beyond the current contracts.

(U/FOUG) Follow-Up Action 2: Conducting an independent
detailed estimate for the remaining task orders necessary to support the
design and construction of the EPF that accurately quantifies the
magnitude of cost growth expected above the original contractor
estimate.

(U/FOUES) Follow-Up Action 3: Clearly documenting the process
and criteria for identifying the conditions and/or circumstances when an
OSL-managed launch wil! and will not be used to support a NRO
satellite launch requirement.

(U/FOUE) Follow-Up Action 4: Addressing material weaknesses
and reportable conditions identified in independent audits with a goal of
regaining an unqualified opinion in the FY 2009 audit.

(U/AFQ@UG) Follow-up Action 5: Implementing recommendations
from the 2007 Inspector General report and increasing collaboration
with NASA and USAF to further enhance mission assurance as
recommended in the Launch Mission Assurance Assessment Study.

(U/FOUO) Follow-up Action 6: Coordinating with the USAF a
well defined integrated explanation of the objectives and specific cost
elements of the ELC investment, along with the actions being taken by
the USAF to manage ELC costs. The integrated explanation should be in
a format that can be consistently communicated and clearly understood
by extemal stakeholders, including Congress.

(U) Findings

(U/FFOUC) Finding 1: OSL effectively carries out its mission to
“Successfully deliver every NRO satellite to orbit on time.” OSL
addresses a specific and existing need to launch the NRO replenishment
and next generation intelligence satellites. OSL is generally well
managed, and the leadership is proactive in identifying and addressing
problems.

(U/APOVE) Finding 2: OSL is committed to launch mission success
as the top priority of the organization. Other goals, including launch
timeliness, appropriately take a backseat to their goal of successfully
delivering satellites to the correct orbit,

(U/EOLO) Finding 3: Despite being geographically dpersce, OSE
is a cohesive organization which focuses on those actions that they
believe will further the goal of mission success. Independent reviews

have commended OSL for an organizational culture which promotes
mission focus, proficiency and teamwork, The reviews also consistently

praise OSL’s use of a Mission Assurance Team, and recognize OSL’s
mission assurance approach as a “Best Practice” without peer in the
launch industry. OSL has found, and external reviews have validated,
that a robust, resilient, and responsive launch vehicle mission assurance
process is vital to assuring access to space. Another recognized strength
of OSL’s Program design is the placement of OSL mission managers
within the satellite vehicle program offices. This facilitates seamless
integration of satellite and launch vehicle and contributes to the safe
delivery of the satellite to its required operational orbit.

(U/PFOUS) Finding 4: OSL’s continued success relies on effective
USAF-management of the Evolved Expendable Launch Vehicle (EELV)
Launch Services (ELS) and EELV Launch Capability (ELC) contracts.
The annual percent of OSL’s budget executed under these USAF
contracts has ranged from 25 to nearly 60 percent. This arrangement
presents some challenges for OSL. Although OSL is included in
decisions made by the USAF, it lacks full visibility into, and control
over, the funding priorities for tasks on the ELC contract.

(U/FOUO} Finding 5: The NRO Launch Program uses long-term
and annual outcome, output, and efficiency measures, with ambitious
targets, to demonstrate success in reaching its goals. As of the Program
Assessment evaluation, the Program had, with the exception of one
launch anomaly in 2007, achieved performance targets related to its
primary goal that every launch be a success, It had also achieved the
majority of its other long-term, annual, and efficiency goals. For
example, the NOPS service contract has operated within budget,
achieved a high level of customer satisfaction, and largely met contact
success goals, despite the reliance on the aging Air Force Sarellite
Control Network.

(U/F@UO) Finding 6: Given the ambitious EELV manifest planned
over the next several years, and the ongoing consolidation of the Atlas V
and Delta IV programs, NRO is likely to continue to experience some
launch-related delays. In part due to affordability, the ELC contract
constrains the EELV program with minimum launch sequencing
requirements, which in turn limit the number of yearly launch
opportunities for each launch system. In addition, the Delta IV heavy
launch vehicle may continue to have technical challenges during the

(U) FUNCTIONAL AVAILABILITY AND SATELLITE LIFE ESTIMATES

(U) Background

(U) In 1997, the Mean Mission Duration Panel recommended the
development of a standardized process for determining satellite life and
constellation replenishment criteria based on mission satisfaction. In
response, the NRO developed the Functional Availability (FA) process,
which employs a combination of probability theory, manoufacturer’s
wear-out data, on-orbit experience, and constellation mission
satisfaction.

" (U) Functional Availability

(U) Functional Availability is the probability that a constellation of
satellites will meet specific mission requirements at a future point in
time. In addition to estimates for wear-out and random failures of
satellite components, FA depends on assumptions regarding future
events such as the replenishment schedule. Different measures of FA
may be defined for a constellation, corresponding to different missions
of the same constellation.

(U) NRO systems engineering initiates the FA methodology at the
piece parts reliability level up through the component, subsystem,
system, and satellite, to the constellation level. The data is displayed as a
curve that provides FA as a function of time.

(U) Reliability. A satellite’s reliability is the probability that it will
remain operable and mission worthy at some future point in time, given
everything known about its current status and future operation.
Reliability functions provide this probability as a function of time, and

usually decline continuously. Reliability functions are constructed for
key components that can be enabling the construction of
mathematical reliability models, as with FA, for larger systems.

(U) Life Estimates. A satellite's life estimate is derived from its
reliability function. The satellite’s mean life estimate (MLE), given in
months, represents the expected average life. Typically, a satellite has
about a 50 percent chance of operating beyond its current MLE.
Decisionmakers should use caution when evaluating MLE of vehicles in
the current constellations. MLE should not be used as the sole basis for
satellite replenishment or to justify conclusions about constellation
capability, but be used in conjunction with other decision points (¢.g-
current satellite performance, requirement satisfaction, communication
throughput, ground capability, etc.).

(U) Risk Management. FA is primarily a risk management tool for
senior leadership in the NRO. FA charts indicate constellation mission
satisfaction over time and illustrate the mission impact of launch
failures, schedule changes, and on-orbit failures. Ideally, the NRO
constellation replenishment plan should ensure that FA levels remain
above minimum thresholds. However, current affordability
considerations do not permit optimal satellite acquisition and launch
phasing.

(U) Content. The following sections contain FA data on GEOINT

(EO) and radar, communications relay constellations, and

SIGINT high altitude and low earth orbit (LEO). Each section contains a

mission description, functional success criteria, changes from last year’s

CBJB, and vehicle highlights. The accompanying graphics page

displays the constellation FA curve and a horizontal “stoplight” bar to

show overall constellation status over time. The bottom portion of the.
graphics page shows reliability data for each satellite including MLE.

(U) The NRO is reestablishing its reputation for on-time and
on-budget delivery. It is also focusing on delivering the best long-term
value for the systems it builds. This includes a heightened emphasis on
the health of the national security space industrial base that the NRO
ultimately depends on for its long-term success. The NRO is also
working to improve the protection and survivability posture of its space
and ground assets.

(U) To support this ambitious vision, the NRO recently completed a
comprehensive realignment of its corporate governance structure as well
as a complete reassessment and redefinition of its acquisition
management processes and a reorganization of its acquisition and
operations-related functions. These initiatives are collectively referred to
as the NRO Transformation and they fundamentally change the way the
NRO manages itself and the way it executes its mission.

(U) The NRO Transformation is arguably the most ambitions

history of the NRO. The INT-based

(U) In the aggregate, the Transformation establishes:

* (U)A new corporate govemance structure with unambiguous and
documented lines of personal responsibility and accountability.

* (U) A new Chief Operating Officer position focused on delivering
NRO programs to their established cost, schedule, and performance
baselines.

* (U) A new corporate systems engineering function to enable
‘rose INT vades and enterise level Hanning.

° (U) A new Ground Enterprise Directorate focused on synergistic
ground development, the development of integrated tasking
capabilities, and the production of fused products.

(U) The Transformation also includes a complete reassessment of all
acquisition-related policies, processes, and documentation. Where gaps
were found, they were addressed; where best practices were found, they
were baselined for the entire organization; and where improvements
could be made they were made.

(U) Although the management and engineering structures and
processes are now in place to facilitate moving into a new era, in the
fina) analysis, the NRO can only be as effective as its workforce. People
are our most important asset. The NRO is working hard to recover from
the adverse impacts of the acquisition “reform” and “peace dividend”
eras of the 1990s. During this era, the NRO essentially lost a generation
of project managers and systems engineers. We now have program
managers who are superbly well qualified technically, but who lack the
hands-on program management experience essential for complete
development. This loss, coupled with the retirement surge being
experienced by all government agencies, creates a particularly
challenging workforce environment for the NRO.

(U) To address these staffing challenges, the NRO is taking the initial
