2. I WOULD LIKE TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE EFFORTS OF THOSE INSTALLATIONS
WHO SUBMITTED NOMINATIONS FOR THE FY00 AWARD. MUCH CARE WENT INTO
THE PREPARATION OF THESE COMPREHENSIVE SUBMISSIONS. I KNOW HOW BUSY
THINGS HAVE BEEN FOR THE SUPPORTING ESTABLISHMENT THIS PAST YEAR AND
I APPRECIATE THE TIME THAT WAS TAKEN TO SEEK RECOGNITION FOR THE
PEOPLE AND INSTALLATIONS WHO ARE DOING SUCH A MARVELOUS JOB
SUPPORTING OUR MARINES. I AM FULLY AWARE OF THE MARINE CORPS

DETERMINATION TO MEET THE MOUNTING CHALLENGES FACING OUR
INSTALLATIONS. THANK YOU MCB CAMP LEJEUNE, NC; MCAS CHERRY POINT,

3. FROM THIS KEEN COMPETITION MCB CAMP LEJEUNE WAS SELECTED AS
THE MARCOR WINNER FOR FY00. THE MILITARY AND CIVILIAN TEAM AT CAMP
LEJEUNE HAS ESTABLISHED A NATIONAL REPUTATION FOR INNOVATIVE
MANAGEMENT AND HAS SERVED AS A TEST SITE FOR NUMEROUS DOD AND
MARINE CORPS INSTALLATION MANAGEMENT INITIATIVES. THEIR SUBMISSION
FOCUSED ON THEIR EXEMPLARY ACHIEVEMENTS IN CREATING AND OPTIMIZING
INITIATIVES. THESE ACHIEVEMENTS FOSTERED A HIGH STATE OF READINESS
TRAINING THAT ENHANCED THE QUALITY OF PERSONAL AND WORK LIFE FOR
MILITARY AND CIVILIAN PERSONNEL. THEY APPLIED A BLEND OF
CREATIVE AND TRADITIONAL MANAGEMENT CONCEPTS THAT ENABLED CAMP
LEJEUNE'S WORK FORCE TO ATTAIN PEAK PERFORMANCE. CUSTOMER SERVICE
WAS SUBSTANTIALLY IMPROVED, INDIVIDUAL AND ORGANIZATIONAL
PRODUCTIVITY INCREASED DRAMATICALLY, NEW ECONOMIES IN FACILITIES
OPERATIONS WERE ATTAINED, AND THE BASE'S ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
PROGRAM CONTINUED TO MARCH FORWARD WITH BOLD NEW INITIATIVES FOR
ENSURING THE HEALTH OF ITS NATURAL ENVIRONMENT. COLLECTIVE
ACCOMPLISHMENTS SUCH AS THESE EMBODY THE VERY SPIRIT AND INTENT OF
THE COMMANDER IN CHIEF'S INSTALLATION EXCELLENCE AWARD.
4. I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO CONGRATULATE THE TWO RUNNERS-UP, MCAS
CHERRY POINT, NC AND MCB CAMP PENDLETON, CA, FOR A JOB WELL DONE.
