LOG 204 FY05 Migration LOG 204 FY05 Migration PlanningPlanning
• Assumptions:– CM is an important logistics competency– Interest remains, and students see value– Need for government life cycle logistician insight continues in PBL
environment– LOG 204 course material has broader applicability than just life cycle
logisticians, including SPRDE professionals & program managers– Migration to DL offers greater potential for increased student
participation Mitigates reduced travel budgets for in-residence courses Precludes problems with personnel being out of the office for course
• Course Manager Assessment:– LOG 204 course material should continue to be available to DoD
workforce– Current course content is solid, with modifications required to maintain
currency– Existing course material will serve as foundation of a future distance
learning version of this course

Potential LOG 204 Expansion Potential LOG 204 Expansion Areas Areas
• Implement USMC Dec 02 Logistics FIPT Recommendation to “assign dual labeling status (i.e. SYS 204) in addition to LOG 204.”
• Expand:– Configuration Management “basics”– Software Configuration Management– Private Sector best practices/processes– Integrated configuration management of software and hardware issues– Interaction of MIL HDBK 61A, EIA 836, EIA 649A and EIA 859.– PBL/PSI configuration management & data management relationship/interaction – Integrated product data environment (vice separate management of CM data & other
technical data)
• Update current verbiage from:– Defense Acquisition Guidebook – SE (4.2.3.6) & Life Cycle Logistics Chapters (5.2.1.4)– Chapter 4 Draft “Performance Based Logistics: Program Manager’s Product Support
Guide”– ANSI/EIA 649A, Configuration Management (and HDBK 649, Configuration
Management under development)– ISO 10007, Quality Management – Guidelines for configuration management– EIA 836, Configuration Management Data Exchange and Interoperability
• Other Areas? FIPT Guidance or inputs?

Summary & RecommendationsSummary & Recommendations
• LOG 204 Update & DL Migration Planning Underway• Road Ahead
– Brief Status to Logistics FIPT 29 Oct– LOG 204 Course Manager & DAU Logistics/SPRDE Program
Directors Meet with OSD Systems Engineering & Logistics Staffs 8-9 Nov 04
– Discussions with Service and GEIA subject matter experts– Develop Course Migration Strategy and POA&M with Late-2005
Target Migration Date, depending on funding
• Recommendations– DAU Proceed with FY05 migration from classroom to distance
learning– Pursue joint LOG-SYS designation to broaden target audience– Logistics FIPT Approve Approach and Provide Course Content
Inputs– Strong FIPT/DACM endorsement of course to workforce after
migration
