New Acquisition Policy and Its Impact on Programs from a Systems Engineering Perspective Systems Engineering Summit March 4, 2009 Sharon Vannucci Assistant Deputy Director for SE Policy and Guidance Systems and Software Engineering Office of the Deputy Under Secretary of Defense (Acquisition and Technology)

Sources of Change Policy spilling out of various new/modified areas of Public Law since 2003 (some with different prerequisites) Approved strategy showing up in more than 25 approach notices and DoD reactions to the GAO, IG, and Congress Reference to ten refreshed or recently issued DoD distributions Consideration of more than 700 Defense Acquisition Policy Working Group (DAPWG) remarks

Coordinated System Design System Design System Demonstration System Capability and Manufacturing Process Demonstration Manufacturing forms viably illustrated; creation agent article(s) exhibited in proposed condition; T&E surveys changes to mission capacity and operational bolster in light of client needs.

New Policy Directed by Congress Military Equipment Valuation (representing military hardware) MDA Certification at Milestones A & B Cost sort contract for EMD Phase requires composed assurance by MDA Lead Systems Integrator Restrictions Replaced System Sustainment Plan Configuration Steering Boards (CSBs )

New Policy Directed by Congress Continued… New MAIS Reporting Requirements "Time-Certain" IT Business Systems Development Defense Business Systems Oversight MDA appraisal of consistence with substance, natural, radiological, and atomic survivability (CBRN) necessities at Milestones B and C Data Management Strategy

New or Revised Regulatory Policy Contract Incentives Strategy Program Support Reviews (PSRs) Integrated Developmental and Operational Test and Evaluation Restricted utilization of execution prerequisites that don't bolster KPPs Comparison with current mission abilities amid OT&E Assessment of Operational Test Readiness (AOTR) Detailed Systems Engineering Policy RAM Strategy

New or Revised Regulatory Policy Continued… Contracting for Operational Support Services Approval of Technology Development Strategy before arrival of last RFP for TD Phase Configuration Management approach Approval of Acquisition Strategy preceding arrival of last RFP for EMD or any succeeding stage Life-Cycle Sustainment Plan (LCSP) Review and evaluation of new or adjusted interchanges waveforms Evolutionary Acquisition Revised

Evolutionary Acquisition From two procedures To one process Capability is conveyed in additions, perceiving in advance requirement for future capacity upgrades. Every addition: relies on upon develop innovation is a militarily valuable and supportable operational capacity Successive Technology Development Phases might be expected to develop innovation for different augmentations. Incremental Development: End-state is known; prerequisites met after some time in a few additions Spiral Development: End-state is not known; necessities for augmentations subordinate upon innovation development and client input No spirals!

Policy Enabling Systems Engineering Technical Reviews Preliminary Design Review (PDR) – Required Before MS B: PDR Report to the MDA for MS B After MS B: PDR Report to the MDA Post-PDR Assessment and ADM Critical Design Review (CDR) – Required Post-CDR Report to the MDA Post-CDR Assessment and ADM

Preliminary Design Review When reliable with Technology Development Phase destinations, related prototyping action, and the MDA endorsed TDS, the PM should arrange a Preliminary Design Review (PDR) before Milestone B. PDR arranging might be reflected in the TDS and should be led for the applicant design(s) to set up the apportioned benchmark (equipment, programming, human/emotionally supportive networks) and basic structures to characterize a high-certainty plan. All framework components (equipment and programming) should be at a level of development proportionate with the PDR passage and leave criteria. An effective PDR will advise necessities exchanges; enhance cost estimation; and recognize remaining outline, mix, and assembling dangers. The PDR might be led at the framework level and incorporate client agents and related affirmation specialists. The PDR Report should be given to the MDA at Milestone B and incorporate prescribed necessities exchanges based upon an appraisal of cost, timetable, and execution chance. On the other hand

Preliminary Design Review Post-PDR Assessment . On the off chance that a PDR has not been directed before Milestone B, the PM might get ready for a PDR when doable after program start. PDR arranging might be reflected in the Acquisition Strategy and led steady with the arrangements indicated in section 5.d.(6). Taking after PDR, the PM should arrange and the MDA might direct a fo
