Air Force Procurement Workforce Transformation

---

The Air Force is in the process of significantly changing the way it
purchases goods and services, with the goals of reducing costs and
increasing performance to better support its missions. During spring
2002, SAF/AQC developed a Procurement Transformation Strategy
that outlines a roadmap for changing the Air Force’s procurement
policies, processes, personnel, and related technologies to meet the
changing needs of a transforming Air Force. A procurement transformation
division (SAF/AQCA) was created to lead these implementation
efforts, and the new division highlighted two related areas for
particular emphasis: (1) implementation of cross-functional teams
(commodity councils) to develop strategies for individual commodity
groups and (2) procurement workforce development to support implementation.
These efforts involve designing a commodity council
approach for the Air Force, analyzing data to identify appropriate
commodity groups, identifying skills needed for council members to
effectively participate in council activities, analyzing current
workforce skills and training and identifying any gaps, and developing
a plan to grow skills that are lacking.
