DEFENSE ACQUISITION UNIVERSITY (DAU) PROGRAM MANAGER'S TOOL KIT
DEFENSE ACQUISITION UNIVERSITY (DAU) PROGRAM MANAGER'S TOOL KIT (12TH EDITION). This 12th Edition of the “Tool Kit” contains a graphic summary of acquisition policies and managerial skills frequently required by DoD program managers. It is a current version of a “Tool Box” that was first developed by Mr. Charles F. Schied of PMC 92-1. For convenience, it is sized for insertion into a 3-hole, 5-1/2” x 8-1/2” “Day Runner.” The information was extracted from Defense Acquisition University (DAU) course material and is based on the DEPSECDEF memo, subj: Defense Acquisition, dated 30 Oct 2002. This memo cancelled DoDD 5000.1, DoDI 5000.2, and DoD 5000.2-R, and issued interim guidance. The “Tool Kit” will be revised again when DoDD 5000.1 and DoDI 5000.2 are reissued in early CY 2003. Material from the DAU Acker Library & Learning Resource Center was also used. Users of the “Tool Kit” are reminded that this summary is a guide only and should not be used as a substitute for official policy guidance. Periodic review of official policy guidance is recommended.

INTERACTIVE ELECTRONIC TRAINING MANUAL (IETM) GUIDE, 1ST ED (SEPT 1999)
INTERACTIVE ELECTRONIC TRAINING MANUAL (IETM) GUIDE, 1ST ED (SEPT 1999). PUBLISHED BY THE DEFENSE SYSTEMS MANAGEMENT COLLEGE PRESS FORT BELVOIR, VA 22060-5565. This document is designed to be the primary desk reference for acquisition personnel who will be required to acquire, develop, deliver and/or manage IETMs now or in the future. It incorporates the status of existing/planned DoD and Service unique policy guidance, discusses current and projected technologies related to the production of IETMs, analyzes the relationship between IETMs and training, and addresses delivery vehicles including the World Wide Web (WWW). The DSMC IETM Guide is a guidance document that does not establish policy or procedures. Many IETM requirements are Service specific and have been identified within the DSMC IETM Guide for further investigation by the IETM acquisition manager. This guide should be used as a starting point for IETM development efforts and include consultation with the appropriate Service’s IETM points of contact (identified in the Appendices) for further information and guidance. Due to the dynamic environment surrounding this subject matter, the contents and referenced requirements of this document will require periodic modification. Personnel are encouraged to access the latest version of the DSMC IETM Guide at: http://www.dsmc.edu/IETM/guide.htm.

THE PROGRAM MANAGERS' GUIDE TO THE INTEGRATED BASELINE REVIEW (IBR) PROCESS
THE PROGRAM MANAGERS' GUIDE TO THE INTEGRATED BASELINE REVIEW (IBR) PROCESS. This guide clearly defines the purpose, goals, and objectives of an IBR. It also describes attributes of an effective IBR and discusses a baseline review process that will lead to a better understanding of program risks. It provides a common definition and framework for the IBR Process. This process harmonizes, and to the extent possible, unifies the management objectives for all PMs. The IBR Process enables managers to effectively utilize the project Performance Measurement Baseline (PMB) to assess performance, and to better understand inherent risks. The IBR Process should continue throughout the life of a project.
