Prejudices are most difficult to eradicate from the heart

whose soil has never been loosened or fertilized by education:

they grow there, firm as weeds among stones.

"The human mind treats a new idea

the same way the body treats a strange protein; it rejects it!"

P. B. Medawar**

Many other war vets experience the same thing. Washington destroyed their lives.

Visit a VA hospital and see. Is this what America stands for?

Is waging war more important than peace?


“Life is so precious,” said Kovic. Young generations are too special to lose.


All federal holidays reflect hypocrisy. Independence Day’s no different. It mocks Jefferson’s Declaration.

He said governments “deriv(e) their just rights from the consent of the governed.”


“That whenever any form of government becomes destructive to these ends,

it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government.”


It’s morally, ethically and legally just to do so. Resisting tyranny’s a universal right.

Protecting freedom depends on preserving it. Noncooperation with evil is fundamental.

 

When in the course of the events of this world, understood as the unfolding of history, it becomes apparent that our collective course is leading us astray, that our very survival is at risk, it becomes the responsibility of those that share this perspective to take it upon themselves to come together as One in service of creating the conditions that will enable us to correct our course.

Performance Support Environment

 

Activity Based Costing (ABC) is a cost accounting method that attempts

 

to develop a productivity snapshot of several USACE Headquarters offices.

www.cecer.army.mil/kws/tho_know.htm - Cached - Similar

 

 

 

ABC has been applied to the service industry in an effort to give managers a framework for making sound business decisions by identifying all the costs associated with providing a particular service. Using ABC, organizations can more clearly see the true costs of products and services.

 

Organizations can use this information to make decisions that improve the profitability of their operations. ABC can be applied to the cost justification of a performance support environment in certain specific situations. The ABC approach can be useful in production offices and in structured knowledge work environments where tasks are essentially repetitive.

 

Consider a production office where the primary work requirement involves repetitively performing certain processes, such as preparing reports, preparing budgets, and collecting data from other personnel. The tasks may be repeated on a daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, or other periodic basis.

 

Each process is initiated by a specific driver, such as a request from management, the approach of the due date for a weekly report, a data call, or appointment to a committee. Each process is composed of tasks, such as entering data into a spreadsheet, sending email messages, attending meetings, preparing documents, scheduling meetings, or making phone calls. For example, Table 10 shows the application of the ABC technique to the preparation of a weekly report that indicates how 60 knowledge workers charged their time to projects.

Task Prepare Labor & Time Sheet for 60 knowledge workers
Activities
  1. Send email request for report of time spent on each project

for weekly reporting period.

  1. Collect delinquent reports.
  2. Check all reports for accuracy & completeness.
  3. Contact individuals with inaccurate or incomplete reports.
  4. Enter data from scrubbed reports into system.
Time spent on task (per week) Activity 1: 0.10 hour
Activity 2: 0.40 hour
Activity 3: 1.10 hour
Activity 4: 0.30 hour
Activity 5: 0.60 hour
Total: 2.50 hours per week
Implicit cost of task (per year) $ 12.95 * 130 = $ 1,683.50 labor cost X total No. of hours = annual cost

 

KVHAdventuring ... Performance Improvement Possibilities (PIP):

The ABC breakdown of processes, tasks, and costs provides information that would be useful both in building the database of processes and in selecting PIPs. However, the cost of the tasks that comprise each process is difficult and expensive to assess. A manual or automated time logging instrument could be constructed to help gather the implicit costs of each task.

 

The time and expense of collecting this information, however, is probably not warranted unless the workgroup being analyzed is both structured and stable, i.e., if the tasks are always done using the same procedures, and if the processes are not likely to be changed for several months. If these conditions are not met, the resources necessary to implement ABC are likely to be greater than the benefit gained.

 

ABC is also recommended as an evaluation technique in those cases where both Integrated Definition (IDEF) process modeling and ABC have been performed as part of other initiatives. The Department of Defense (DOD) has recommended the use of both IDEF and ABC as part Functional Process Improvement efforts in the Defense Information Management Program (1993).

 

If ABC has been implemented for workgroups where a performance support environment (PSE) is being introduced, the results can be used to identify the processes that consume the largest amount of labor resources. The most costly processes should be examined as likely PIPs, as mentioned previously. These same processes may warrant further data collection after the PSE has been fully implemented. This post-implementation data can be done using either another technique such as Work Profile Analysis or Time Saved Times Salary, or by re-application of ABC.
