“We are facing adversaries who possess significant military capabilities and aspire to be the equal of the United States. These nation states are improving their warfighting capabilities at a rapid pace, shrinking our competitive advantage, and redefining international norms to further their long-term goals. It is imperative we outpace them. ” VADM Thomas J. Moore Commander, Naval Sea Systems Command Approved for Public Release - Distribution Unlimited 3

Planning for Success • • • What industry need will your project meet? Who can help you understand the scope of the problem? Who can help you develop a solution? What will project success look like? What will be necessary to implement the solution? Who will need to approve implementation? What will they ask for? Can you leverage a past or current project? How does your project fit into the shipbuilding plan? Will another project be necessary? “Start with the end in mind. ” – Steven Covey Approved for Public Release - Distribution Unlimited 7
