1. Mr. Pamar started the meeting by updating Mr. Gable on how the Army Audit team decided on the 60% IPR recommendations. Mr. Parmar explained that in the discussion sections the Army Audit Team focused on three parts. He also made note that Mr. Laukanis is currently working to complete the remaining Potential Monetary Benefits (PMB).Mr. Gable asked, who issued the Team Armor Partnership (TAP) contract? We explained that Tank-Automotive and Armaments Command (TACOM) issued the contract and ensured him that they did not receive any incentives.
2. Mr. Parmar turned the meeting over to Mr. Gladhill who then proceeded to discuss the background on the Audit. Mr. Gladhill gave the background on how the audit team worked with the agency statistician

Mr. Gladhill continued with the second recommendation. Documentation/Oversight recommendations to support turn-ins of LRUs (AMC/FORSCOM): Mr. Gable stated that AMC has nothing to do with these recommendations. He explained the first bullet; Issue message to Army units and supporting SSAs to ensure that the unserviceable reparable tag and form 2404 are attached to unserviceable LRU turn-ins and remains on the LRU until it reaches National Level Source of Repair – Team Armored Partnership or final destination. The tag needs to clearly show the DSESTS operator, or other accountable officer, that approved/signed off on turn-in to SSA and the corresponding reason for turn-in is FORSCOM recommendation. The second bullet; Automate the data associated with unserviceable reparable turn-ins in a system such as LIW to include unit that turned in, activity that certified condition code, and reason for turn is a CASCOM recommendation because CASCOM identifies the requirements for GCSS-Army. The third bullet; Using data above, determine root causes of unserviceable LRU turn-ins with NEOFs, or requiring only minor repair, and take actions to fix root causes is a recommendation for TACOM. Mr. Gable also suggested we incorporate the third bullet into the first bullet because we are telling them what to do with the data. Mr. Gable explained when writing a recommendation there should be a long-term action and a short term action. We continued to the next recommendation on training (Slide 23) Mr. Gable stated that the training recommendation should not be towards CASCOM because CASCOM is under TRADOC. Mr. Gladhill asked would it be a good idea to require CASCOM to fund the UDIP program. Mr. Gable suggested we take out the funding recommendation and just go with the add UDIP training to the Advance Leaders Course (ALC) recommendation. Mr. Gable noted that we should try not to tell them to fund one program over another because the Army would still have to assess which is a higher
During Hydromaint's audit, you and Pam had a number of discussions. You, Pam, and Mike Johnson are generally satisfied that the accounts are in accordance with GAAP and are supported by underlying facts. Pam tested Jerry's pension accounting (which she found to be correct) by preparing a pension worksheet based on data contained in the actuary's report:
In a recent opinion, the Kansas Court of Appeals addressed the meaning and status of Kansas water law. The case of Garetson Brothers v. American Warrior, Inc., 51 Kan. App. 2d 370 (2015), concerns a groundwater dispute between senior water users and junior water users in southwest Kansas. After filing a complaint against the junior users, the senior users sought an injunction to stop the pumping of groundwater. The District Court granted the injunction and the Court of Appeals affirmed their decision. The issues in the case concerned what the term impairment means in the context of water law and whether it is appropriate for a court to grant injunctive relief to a senior water user. The Court of Appeal’s decision upholds the principle

Sir, I am honored by the privilege to once again serve in 4th Armored Brigade Combat Team (ABCT). Over of the last 30 days, I had an opportunity to reconnect, and reflect on the current state of the Brigade. The 4th ABCT has a rich history of success and glory. It is my goal to put in place the systems and practices for this great organization to exceed all past and present accomplishments. As a result of my assessment, I identified three areas of focus that will improve our organization: a unit vision, a change in organizational culture and climate, and building organizational teams. I have no doubt that with the implementation of these three areas of focus, I will be the transformational leader that 4th ABCT needs as we prepare for the upcoming National Training Center (NTC) rotation and tackle the task of the Regionally Aligned Forces (RAF) mission.

This piece serves to describe acquired PL499 course concepts and their relevance to my project team and the West Point Leader Development System (WPLDS).... ... middle of paper ... ... Even though the external consequences of breaking trust (perhaps by not completing my interviews on time like I said I would) are not as severe as breaking trust in combat, establishing the pattern at West Point that it is acceptable to fall short on commitments when they are “not important” is a terrible habit.
When our professor first presented this project paper to us my mind began to wonder. What is a good company to research and present it to my fellow classmates. My first selection was “Chik-fil-a”, but I wasn’t sure if we could write about fast food franchises. So I continued to brainstorm about a topic to expound on, even going as far as in asking my buddies and co-workers for suggestions. “Walmart”, “National Football League”, “National Basketball Association”, “Nationwide Insurance”, and “LG” were a few ideas that were presented to me. A few of those sounded ok but none really grasp my attention. As I was visiting an outlet mall, I came across Nike store. “Wow that’s going to by my topic of choice”, is what I told myself. Week four (4) arrived and my professor asked for every student’s topic. Before he made it to me, at least four (4) others said Nike! As usual, I was the last person to give him my topic of choice. That’s when I went with “Under Armour. Researching this topic presented many roadblocks, due to this company only being around since 1996. I wasn’t sure if Under Armour practices corporate sustainability or even if they were socially responsible; but countless hours later researching this company, enlightened me of the answers I was searching for.
A discussion of customer requirements will be conducted in every meeting with each meeting focusing on one customer. The audit team will also discuss ways to improve the current audit process. New auditors will meet with the lead auditor once a quarter to discuss development and areas they would like to work on to customize their training plan for their success. The team would be assessed in the number of customer concerns or problems that arise out of the facility and the score of external audits. The audit team meetings are scheduled for October 2016, January 2017, April 2017 and July

Upon graduation, each of us will face the challenge of building a cohesive team through mutual trust. Trust is the groundwork for any successful team. Just as the commander will learn to trust me, I in return will have to trust my commander. As a Command Sergeant Major (CSM) or Staff Sergeant Major (SGM), I realize that my Soldiers will not trust me right away, and I must gain their mutual trust through my daily interactions. By setting an example and living the Army Values, I will gain their mutual trust. My commander and I will plan team-building events often to maximize the opportunities to build the mutual trust within our organization with the staff and Soldiers. Understanding that team building requires an effort on everyone’s part but the chance to bridge any gaps tha...
