Introduction
• webMethods is a Business Process Management tool that automates end-to-end business transactions, coordinating people and systems in formalized interactions
• The process does not need to be complete. It will evolve incrementally over time as more of the business is formalized and as adaptations and improvements are made
![Page 3: SSRP Webmethods](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052316/55990f7c1a28ab152c8b4681/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Introduction (cont’d)• The Strategic Surface Route Plan (SSRP) in its current
state is a highly labor intensive analytical process with a mean process cycle time (PCT) of 45 days. – The goal is a PCT of 30 days– Undocumented process– Reliant on the knowledge of a single individual
• SSRP provides a rigorous, timely review of the business rules governing the movement of cargo to ensure cargo is moving in the most efficient means possible while maintaining customer service levels

Overall Process Explanation
• webMethods begins with a blank design canvas, analysts/designers can then select the elements they wish to use to represent their process– Pools: representations for internal and external
organizations involved in the Process– Swimlanes: provide a fine-grained representation of
actors or departments within the internal pool– Steps or subprocesses are placed in pools and
swimlanes to communicate which actor or organization “owns” or performs those steps or subprocesses
– Steps are connected together to create a process
![Page 6: SSRP Webmethods](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052316/55990f7c1a28ab152c8b4681/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Overall SSRP Process Explanation cont’d
• The overall process is the responsibility of a single enterprise (USTC pool) and a single organization (SSRP team)
• Including start and end steps, in this draft there are thirteen steps to the process– Each step is a major functional activity that must
be completed to perform the analysis and distribute the results for implementation
– Each step may contain several subprocesses, as captured in the later slides in this presentation

Request Data Step/Subprocesses
Figure 2: Request and Collect Data Steps
![Page 8: SSRP Webmethods](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052316/55990f7c1a28ab152c8b4681/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Request and Collect Data Explanation• SSRP collects data from a number of systems in order to
perform this analysis– Department of Defense Activity Address Code (DoDAAC) association
plan– Global container movement data over the past six months– Financial data associated with the container movements– Truck schedules, costs and utilization– Deconsolidation costs
• webMethods allows notes to be posted, so you can see issues that need to be resolved in the Design phase of this DMADV project
• Once received, the data needs to be organized, validated, and normalized
• In this draft, historical velocity analysis is captured as subprocess under collect data, in the future, it will be a unique step in the overall process
![Page 9: SSRP Webmethods](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052316/55990f7c1a28ab152c8b4681/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Create Derived Data Elements
Figure 3: Creation of Derived Data Elements
![Page 10: SSRP Webmethods](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052316/55990f7c1a28ab152c8b4681/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Derived Data Element Explanation
• For the purpose of follow on steps, the data needs to be transformed.
• In this subprocess at the end of the collect data step, average historical costs and 40’ container utilization rates need to be calculated and used to populate a look up table.– The table is re-populated with each iteration, so that
recent trend data in cost and utilization are given greater weight in the analysis then they would otherwise be. This provides a more accurate reflection or reality in the analytical model
![Page 11: SSRP Webmethods](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052316/55990f7c1a28ab152c8b4681/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Determine Eligibility Step
Figure 4: Determine Eligibility
![Page 12: SSRP Webmethods](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052316/55990f7c1a28ab152c8b4681/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Determine Eligibility Explanation
• In this step, the data is further filtered so that analysis is conducted on only those DODAACs eligible for mixed containers– Combatant Commands (COCOMS) may make certain
DODAACs “off limits” for mixed movement, and they must always go pure
– There may not be a theater consolidation and shipping point (TCSP) capability (a cross-dock) or a DODAAC may not be supported by a TCSP
– In selected areas (Hawaii), it is possible to configure containers for multi-stop delivery

Calculate Historical Baseline Cost

![Page 14: SSRP Webmethods](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052316/55990f7c1a28ab152c8b4681/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Calculate Historical Baseline Cost Explanation
• In the first part of this subprocess that describes this step, cargo is segregated by cube and weight to determine the “driver” on a specific lane
• Costs are then calculated to arrive at a cost/cube, and cost/pound figure for each DODAAC
![Page 15: SSRP Webmethods](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052316/55990f7c1a28ab152c8b4681/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Determine “To-Be” Velocity

“To-Be” Velocity Explanation
• There is an error in this diagram: instead of “to-be cost,” it should be “to-be velocity”
• The point of this calculation is to determine the amount of time it would take previously “pure” loaded cargo to make the same transit if it were to move via “mixed” containers– Takes into account time spent in deconsolidation– Utilizes requisition data as a proxy for containers and
is determined at the 85th percentile to prevent skewing the data with outliers that don’t reflect container movement

Calculate “To-be” Cost

“To-Be” Cost Explanation
• As in the baseline, calculations for each DODAAC are performed based on weight or cube as the lane driver
• Based on average container utilization in the lane for 40’ containers
• Includes “additional” costs (deconsolidation, trucking) associated with mixed container movement

Apply Business Rules Step

Apply Business Rules Explanation• The objective function of the SSRP process is to minimize
cost while maintaining or improving velocity
• Decision tree created for population of the SSRP report– If cost decreases, and velocity improves/constant, then lane
switches to mixed
– If cost increases, and velocity improves/constant, the COCOM determines if it remains pure or switches to mixed
– If cost decreases and velocity improves/constant, COCOM makes determination
– If cost increases and velocity worsens, the lane remains pure

Generate Report Step

Generate Report Explanation
• After the report format is populated out of webMethods, human centric tasks must occur for quality assurance and “sanity check” prior to forwarding to stakeholders for review
![Page 23: SSRP Webmethods](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052316/55990f7c1a28ab152c8b4681/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Validate/Vet Step

Validate/Vet Step Explanation
• Draft SSRP report is pushed to stakeholders for review and validation
• Negotiated Business rules determine length of time stakeholders have to vet and review SSRP
![Page 25: SSRP Webmethods](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052316/55990f7c1a28ab152c8b4681/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

Capture Response Step
• Responses and recommended changes are received, adjudicated and then incorporated for final SSRP report production
