4 Defense Acquisition System System of Systems Engineering The Defense Acquisition System is a Joint Services process with the primary function to develop and provide DoD military capabilities. Because all branches of the military use this common system, by nature it is a very complex and lengthy process. The Integrated Defense Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics Life Cycle Management System, is composed of three major lanes of authority: (1) The Defense Acquisition System; (2) Joint Capabilities Integration & Development System (JCIDS); and (3) Planning, Programming, Budgeting & Execution Process. The purpose of this presentation is to introduce the Idaho National Laboratory s (INL) seven step process and a holistic approach of systems integration techniques directed at these three lanes of authority. 4

13 Defense Acquisition System System of Systems Engineering In general there are several hundred relationship nodes that are embedded in the Acquisition Process that presents numerous stopping points due to analysis, reviews, and approvals and in some cases contention due to stove pipe lines of authority and friction between organizations. The construct provides three dimensional integration and applies the INL seven step integration methods to create technology roadmaps and expedited material solutions that could be directly applied to the Defense Acquisition Process and the JCIDS process.

15 Technology Readiness Levels Basic Principle Application Formulated Proof of Concept Bench Scale Experimental Scale Pilot Scale Engineering Scale Prototype Plant Operational Commercial scale Technology Component Subsystem System Plant Area Component Testing Capability Cold Testing Hot Operations Technology Readiness Assessment The structures, systems, and components (SSC) comprising the Defense Acquisition Process are synthesized and evaluated through a Technology Readiness Assessment and assigned Technology Readiness Levels (TRL) based on technical maturity. For lower TRLs, assessments typically occur at an individual technology or component level. To mature the technology or component, integrated testing or modeling must occur at increasingly larger scales, with integrated components, and in increasingly relevant environments, thus achieving higher TRL ratings as the project progresses. A validated TRL baseline is established for the proposed physical design and is periodically reassessed throughout the project life cycle. Validated TRLs provide project management one measure of the level of technological risk encountered by the project. 15

16 Technology Development Roadmaps With the baseline TRLs in place, technology development roadmaps (TDRMs) can then be generated to define the decision discriminators, forecast down selection timeframes, and focus project research and development and engineering tasks on increasing levels of technical maturity. TDRMs provide the required structure and are the primary means to systematically perform risk-informed decision making, quantify uncertainty, down select technologies, and mature technologies in a cost-effective and timely manner. Tasks include modeling, testing, bench-scale demonstrations, pilot-scale demonstrations, and full integrated prototype demonstrations. TDRMs for critical SSC are developed to: Set the project vision for technology maturation and risk resolution Identify the key selection discriminators and drive uncertainty reduction to inform technology and design down selection Ensure technology readiness is demonstrated through testing, modeling, simulations, piloting, and prototyping Provide early identification and resolution of technical risks Avoid late project technical challenges, which manifest themselves as cost overruns and schedule delays 16

17 Risk-Informed Project Readiness Assessment The tasks needed to mature the technologies, as documented in the TDRMs, also reduce the technical project risk. Technical and programmatic risks including political decisions, social acceptance, and market demand are reviewed and risk handling strategies developed to reduce the probability of the risk event and lessen its damage should the event occur. While advancing project readiness, and engineering design. The resulting RISK-Informed Project Readiness Assessment serves to: Identify the tasks that provide the most efficient risk resolution Provide a path forward for reducing risk over the life of the project Link risk to project schedule and integrated priority list Integrate multiple stakeholders viewpoints into risk-informed path forward Provide a Risk Work-off Metric for the project to track risk to acceptable levels 17
