Army Suggestion Program (ASP)

1.  What is the ASP?

The Army Suggestion Program (ASP), previously known as Army Ideas for Excellence Program (AIEP) is an incentive program that encourages soldiers and civilians within the Department of the Army to submit ideas that, if adopted, will result in increased efficiencies and reduced costs.   This program is governed by AR 5-17.  Cash awards for money saving ideas can reach as high as $25,000.

2.  Why do we need the ASP?
ASP is a program that is for Soldiers and the employees. It encourages soldiers and civilians to submit ideas that increase the efficiency and productivity of the Army.  It improves morale by providing individuals with the opportunity to voluntarily take part in the improvement of operations and the quality of life within the Army.


3.  Who can suggest?
All members of the Army community, and others concerned with the welfare of both the Army and the Nation, are eligible to submit ideas. Any group may submit an idea. 


4.  How does suggestion process?
As soon as the suggestion is submitted, Installation Coordinator(Level I) will assigns Functional Proponent (FP) to select the subject matter expert who serves as the suggestion evaluator.  After the evaluation is completed, the installation coordinator will notify the submitter of the results. If eligible, the award may be processed.  When the suggestion is not within the jurisdiction of the Installation, the suggestion is coordinated with Region Coordinator(Level II). When the suggestion requires higher level review or is not within in the jurisdiction of Region level, it is sent to HQ DA Manager(Level III).


5. Where can we suggest an idea?
Use of the automated ASP website to submit ASP proposals is recommended.  URL: http://asp.hqda.pentagon.mil/public/default.htm  AKO login ID and password are required to access the site.  If suggester does not have an AKO account, they should go to the installation ASP coordinator who can input the proposal.  However, suggester must have a valid e-mail address where notices on status of the suggestion can be sent.

Submit manually prepared suggestions directly to your Installation Coordinator.

Lean Six Sigma (LSS)

Continuous Process Improvement (CPI)/Lean Six Sigma (LSS) 1. What is CPI?
Continuous Process Improvement (CPI) is a strategic approach for developing a culture of continuous improvement in the areas of reliability, process cycle times, costs in terms of less total resource consumption, quality, and productivity. Deployed effectively, it increases quality and productivity, while reducing waste and cycle time.

2. What is LSS?
LSS combines the principles of Lean (reducing and eliminating non-value activities) with Six Sigma (reducing variation, increasing quality) to improve process effectiveness and alignment with the voice of the customer.
