The Defense Management Contract Agency has undergone restructuring resulting in changes aimed at consolidating organizations and boosting the agency’s modernization initiative.
The agency said Thursday the realignment is meant to streamline operations, promote collaboration and strengthen the alignment within headquarters components.
Enterprise Analytics & Modernization
The Portfolio Management and Business Integration Directorate was renamed Enterprise Analytics & Modernization, or EA&M, effective July 28. The Program Support, Policy Guidance and Competency Planning and Industrial Analysis divisions are still based in the DCMA headquarters as part of EA&M.
In a related move, EA&M executive director Walter Eady tasked Chief Digital and Artificial Officer Craig Morgan to stand up the Agency Data Analytics and Optimization capability.
The establishment of EA&M aligns with efforts to enhance the monitoring of systemic performance trends by utilizing business business-intelligent and data analytics tools. Industrial Analysis is another key focus of EA&M. It enhances Defense Industrial Base Mission Assurance awareness and fosters collaboration aimed at supporting DOD risk management activities to boost warfighter capabilities.
Other DCMA Realignments
The Corporate Assessment Team and the Customer Engagement Teams, formerly part of the renamed directorate, were moved to the Corporate Operations Directorate. The Earned Value Management Systems Center was moved to the Cost and Pricing Command while the Reimbursable Team is now part of the Financial and Business Operations Directorate.
The Data Management division, formerly of Corporate Operations, is now under EA&M. This move is included in the first phase of establishing the Department of Defense-directed CDAO.
