13-00000 SECRET SENSIND: 98~-2273603 PAGE: 3 P ovunscas POSTS. A VACANCY.NOTICE WILL BE ISSUED SOON FOR por MCLAUGHLIN EXPLAINED, "WE ARE CREATING OPS FOR SEVERAL REASONS: MHENO : --FIRST, WE NEED TO PAY INCREASED ATTENTION TO HOW THE DI SUPPORTS A RANGE OF KEY CUSTOMERS. IMPROVING SUPPORT TO THE POLICYMAKER AND THE MILITARY IS A CRITICAL AREA OF INVESTMENT FOR THE DIRECTORATE’S FUTURE, AND CREATION OF OPS REPRESENTS A STEP IN THIS DIRECTION. BOTH THE OPS CENTER AND PASS, FOR EXAMPLE, HAVE BEEN UNDERTAKING MAJOR EFFORTS TO IMPROVE THEIR DELIVERY OF DI PRODUCTS AND SERVICES, AND THEY WILL BENEFIT FROM INCREASED DAY-TO-DAY ATTENTION OF AN OFFICE DEDICATED TO HELPING THEM REACH THOSE GOALS. SIMILARLY, WE ARE EXPECTING THE NEW OFFICE TO PROVIDE THE RIGHT SETTING FOR PES--WHICH IS TO HELP US EVALUATE HOW WE SERVE THE CONSUMER--TO GET ON ITS PRET RAPIDLY. --OPS WILL ALSO, FOR THE FIRST TIME, PROVIDE A FOCAL POINT FOR SUPPORTING DI REPS BOTH HERE AND ABROAD. AS THAT EFFORT BECOMES MORE IMPORTANT BOTH FOR CUSTOMER SUPPORT AND EXPERTISE DEVELOPMENT, WE NEED TO BRING MUCH GREATER ATTENTION TO ENSURING THAT OUR PEOPLE ARE EFFECTIVELY DEPLOYED AND THAT THEY GET THE BACKING THEY NEED. RIGHT NOW, MOST REPS HAVE NO SINGLE PLACE TO GO FOR SUPPORT; OPS WILL ENSURE THAT THEY DO. MEANWHILE, OPS WILL WORK WITH THE DI‘S COUNCIL OF INTELLIGENCE OCCUPATIONS TO DEVELOP DIRECTORATE POLICIES ON WHER REPS WILL BE MOST USEFULLY STATIONED. T oy ~-PINALLY, THE CURRENT ODDI IS TOO BIG. AT MORE THAN PEOPLE, IT IS ALMOST AS LARGE AS SOME LINE DI COMPONENTS, TAKING VALUABLE TIME AWAY FROM ADDI WINSTON WILEY AND ME IN FOCUSING. ON THE NEEDS OF THE DI AT LARGE. ESTABLISHING OPS WILL MAKE THE REMAINING ODDI MORE MANAGEABLE, ALLOWING US TO FOCUS MORE INTENTLY ON THE RIGHT RANGE OF SUBSTANTIVE AND ADMINISTRATIVE ISSUES. I WANT TO STRESS, HOWEVER, THAT OPS IS NOT GOING TO TAKE LARGE AMOUNTS OF RESOURCES FROM THE REST OF THE DIRECTORATE NOR IMPEDE DIRECT COMMUNICATION BETWEEN THE DDI/ADDI AND KEY OPERATIONS SUCH AS THE PRESIDENFS DAILY BRIEF (PDB) ALL OF THE UNITS COMPOSING THE OFFICE ALREADY EXIST, AND THE NEW FRONT OFFICE WILL CONSIST OF A DIRECTOR--NO DEPUTY--AND LITERALLY A HANDFUL OF ADDITIONAL PERSONNEL, *INCLUDING AN<EXECUTIVE>OFFICER (EXO). OTHERWISE, OPS AND THE ODDI WILL CONTINUE TO SHARE THE SAME SUPPORT STAPF, AND THEY WILL BOTH LOOK AT WAYS TO MAKE THEIR OPERATIONS MORE EFFICIENT. IN THIS WAY, BY MAKING A SMALL INVESTMENT IN A MORE FOCUSED MANAGEMENT STRUCTURE, WINSTON AND I BELTEVE WE CAN HELP POSITION THE DI TO SERVE THE CUSTOMER BETTER--WHETHER IT’S THE PDB RECIPIENT, THE DCI AND DDCI, THE POLICYMAKER RECEIVING CLOSE SUPPORT FROM A DI REP, OR THE WIDE RANGE OF OTHER OFFICIALS WHO COUNT ON OUR LIAISON AND INFORMATION RELEASE STAFFS TO HANDLE AN EVER-INCREASING WORKLOAD EFFECTIVELY."
