Old Version

New Look and Improved Functionality

Once in a CoP, SIA, or Workspace, the “Explorer”

only shows the links for that Community

• No more cluttered navigation• No more folder icons• No more difficulty determining what sub-topic area you are in (when in a sub-topic area, the “Explorer” changes the color of that area• When you’ve finished in an area, just click on ACC HOME to locate other CoPs, SIA, etc.

Visibility of CoP, SIA, or Workspace Page Views

• Shows total page views for the year• Clicking on the number provides a more detailed breakout

Metrics are Available Down to the Individual Contribution Level

• Just as in the previous examples, detailed page view metrics are available for every contribution on the ACC• What you will quickly see here is that the contributions you make/share on the ACC are being used by your peers – time spent participating in our CoPs is time well spent (as in the example below, just think of how many individuals this document was able to reach by taking 2 minutes to post in LOG CoP.

Improvements to “Participate”

• The “Subscribe” option is less cluttered now and is easier to understand

•Invite a friend to join a particular community You now have the option to join any given community

•Join a Community w/o waiting for us to add you or for a Member to invite you

DiscussionDiscussion

LOG CoP is doing well… however its full potential is not being realized.– Few contributions by members

– Limited use of discussion capability

How do we better engage the community??– Utilize discussions to extend reach & learn what others

are doing

– Pulse the community via discussions

– Communicate information easily & quickly

Defense Acquisition Guidebook

DoD Acquisition GuidebookDoD Acquisition GuidebookObjective• Revise and Complete Electronic

DoD Acquisition Guidebook by September 2004

• Electronically Link the Guidebook to Policy Documents (DAU)

Criteria• This will be a Guide NOT A POLICY Document !!• Explain, will not require

– What and how vice shall and will• Except when…(driven by 5000 policy)• Relationship to other Guides and other Chapters

5000 Guidebook Overview5000 Guidebook Overview• Acquisition professionals should use this Guidebook to perform

their management responsibilities.

• Each chapter is designed to improve understanding of the acquisition process and ensure knowledge of the statutory and regulatory requirements associated with the process.

• The Guidebook is more an electronic reference system than a “book”.

• Hyperlinks let you electronically jump to related info.

• Some links take you to external references, such as United States Code, or other formal DoD publications.
