ǼȱȱȱȱȱȱȱȂȱȱȱȱǯȱ
The most important aspects of the next implementation phase of this project are the
continued evaluation of processes by conducting additional process mappings of
SDPs/issues and the process of knowledge transfer to maximize resource optimization as
AUD authorized resource levels become more critical. This activity, which becomes the
Training Plan, will target various techniques for providing training in a myriad of
topics, the most important of which is continued and enhanced supervisory leadership
training. Others include but are not limited to safety, emergency response, security,
technical training and customer service. This activity is intended to be a road map of

directly involved in the day-to-day issues being evaluated. This task will
consist of facilitating the development of process maps of current and future
processes/issues by the functional teams.
For each process being evaluated and mapped, two separate mappings will
be developed. The first will entail a concentrated effort to develop the process

each of the functional teams. Both versions of the process maps will be used
ȱȱȱȱȱȱȱȃȱȄȱǯ
B. Facilitate the development of action plans with the functional teams tasked with
implementing SDP changes. Actions plans shall be formalized by the CONSULTANT
and will identify specific activities, owners and measurement metrics. It is assumed
that there will be approximately ten action plans developed.

SDPs/Issues. Action plans shall be developed in such a way as to have the ability
to measure ȱ ȱȂȱvision, mission and goals.
2. Distribute draft process maps and action plans to functional teams and the core
team for review and approval.

prioritized by the core team in order to prepare for expansion of efforts for developing
a more comprehensive business plan. The purpose of this effort is to maintain the
momentum of the SDP process and the productivity of the process mapping while it is
still fresh on the Ȃȱǯ This approach will prepare the core team and the small
functional teams to move smoothly into the next phase of the project. A part of this
process will be the preliminary assessments of appropriate functional teams and
suggested assignments and a further consolidation of the remaining SDPs/issues. This
shall be conducted as part of a half day project status meeting with the Core Team.
D. Deliverable: Completed process flows for those included as part of this task.
