5 WSARA Impact on Early Acquisition New legislation, Public Law (WSARA) recognizes the importance of SE to weapon systems acquisition Heavy focus on starting MDAPs right: and tracking of measurable performance criteria as part of SEPs and TESs / TEMPs Requiring completion of competitive prototypes for all Major Defense Acquisition Programs (MDAPs) Requiring completion and MDA assessment of a system-level Preliminary Design () before MS B Codifying a role for SE in development planning, integration risk (delegated by the DDR&E), lifecycle management, and sustainability Yearly OSD assessment to Congress of Component capabilities for SE, development planning, and DT&E 10/22/09 Page-5 5
6 New Emphasis on Planning and Early SE A B C CBA ICD MDD Solution Analysis CDD Engineering and Manufacturing CDR CPD Production and Deployment FRP DR O&S Planning DP DT&E SE LCS DP: Planning DT&E: al Test and Evaluation LCS: Life Cycle Sustainment SE: System Engineering CBA: Capabilities Based CDD: Capability Document CPD: Capability Production Document ICD: Initial Capabilities Document MDD: 10/22/09 Page-6 6
7 Planning and Early SE Critical Activities A B CBA ICD MDD Solution Analysis CDD SE Input to MDD CONOPS Awareness of Strategic Context Engagement with S&T Engagement with JCIDS Guidance Prototyping & Risk Reduction Prototyping ( and Design) CTE TRL Maturation Trade Studies SE Support for Risk Reduction Oversight of Competitive Designs Risk Engagement in AoA Engineering Analysis Plan Analysis Activity Report Consideration of SOS/Interdependency, Interoperability Context SEP for Milestone A Input to TDS (CTE, CPI), TES, CCE Input to Acquisition/ Planning, CARD, Budget & Other Evidence of Strong SE Activity SE in Contract Requirements SE into the Report to MDA, Acquisition Strategy, TEMP, CARD, and ICE and Report and Technical s up to and including Systems Engineering Plan Strong Reliability, Availability and Maintainability (RAM) SE in TD Contract Requirements System Requirements Definition Tech s (ASR, Early SE Requirements) Inputs to Requirements RAM and Sustainability Requirements Traceability Matrices Translation of Requirements to Contract *Reference DAG Sections and Capability Document (CDD) 10/22/09 Page-7 7
8 New Challenges for Program Managers Need for Program Office formation and PM skill-sets after MDD and prior to MS A Increased importance of the Strategy (TDS) (as a surrogate Acquisition Strategy) at MS A Schedule and funding shifts left from EMD to TD Earlier engagement with industry and different contracting strategies for technology maturation, competitive prototyping, data rights, before MS B, etc. Explicit need for earlier, formal SE process application (e.g., data, configuration, and risk management) New MS A cost and schedule baselines with breach penalties and MDA certifications for MDAPs Additional MS B MDA MDAP certifications including formal post- assessment that the program demonstrates a high likelihood of accomplishing its intended mission 10/22/09 Page-8 8
9 The Milestone A Planning Challenge Documents / activities / data requiring technical input from the Program Office before Milestone A: Analysis of Alternatives Strategy Critical Program Information Maturation plans Competitive Prototyping plans Net-Centric Data Strategy Market Research Data Management Strategy Component Cost Estimate Systems Engineering Plan Test and Evaluation Strategy The PM s Dilemma: Where to find the data!? 10/22/09 Page-9 9
10 Why is this hard? Program offices (both government and contractor) have very little experience with pre-ms B acquisition activities, particularly competitive prototyping and before MS B The DAG guidance is voluminous online resource with over 750 printed pages with relevant, phaserelated guidance sprinkled throughout Program offices have limited understanding about these interdependencies within the DAG guidance New implementing policy and DAG guidance in response to PL will not be available immediately 10/22/09 Page-10 10
