<P>The Military Engineer l No. 66575 Framework for Success By Samuel P. Figuli, CSDP, John Rupnik, M.SAME, and Capt. Brad Smith, USN (Ret.) SERDP, along with personnel at Naval Base Ventura County, developed a sustainability framework and set of metrics that can be adapted to virtually any military installation. Sustainability T he sustainable operation of U.S. military bases is a matter of in- creasing priority. Effective man- agement of all relevant aspects of long- term stability, reliability and resilience of operations requires a comprehensive framework. Within that framework, ap- propriate management metrics and re- porting systems are needed to highlight emerging issues and systemic prob- lems. The primacy of mission, coupled with the complexity of operations and issues of surrounding environment and community, means that simple adap- tation of existing sustainability frame- works will not be adequate. A tailored approach is required. To ?ll this gap, the Strategic Environ- mental Research and Development Pro- gram (SERDP), working in collabora- tion with sustainability consultants and military personnel at Naval Base Ven- tura County, Calif., developed a suitable framework and set of metrics that could be adapted to virtually any military in- stallation. Highly representative of U.S. military bases in general, Naval Base Ventura County consists of 73 com- mands in two separate locations—Point Mugu and Port Hueneme—housed in 1,500 buildings. The base ful?lls three main functions: training, mobilization and testing. This diversity of functions ensured that the resulting Mission Sus- tainability Framework (MSF) and the accompanying metrics developed there would be robust across different types of military bases.

can be developed for the unique characteristics of almost any installation.</p> <UL><LI><a href="http://www.stallionpublishers.com/publication/541/uchvgbhoy/1/1/">Front-Cover</a></LI> <LI><a
