10 Prototyping and Competition in the right way Evolutionary acquisition requires... Technology development preceding initiation of an increment shall continue until the required level of maturity is achieved, prototypes of the system or key system elements are produced, and a preliminary design is completed.... The TDS and associated funding shall provide for two or more competing teams producing prototypes of the system and/or key system elements prior to, or through, Milestone B. The prototypes shall be representative platforms reflecting the maturity of technologies and integrated system performance consistent with expected capability. 10

11 Competitive Prototyping Done in the Right Way Need to know earlier on what will make the program successful and prototype that (i.e. challenges) Decide what is important cost, integration, technology, etc and determine how to measure / assess success Cost in prototyping should be a factor but the not dominant decision point Get domain experts to assist in determining what needs to be prototyped Do proof of concept but also to fill in the other holes Achieved at any level system or key system elements (sub-system, assembly, or component) Prototype the critical path items first Need to spend money smartly up front get smart at low burn rate 11

12 Enhanced Systems Engineering SE Design Consideration - RAM Reliability, Availability, & Maintainability (RAM) Defense Science Board Report on DT&E (dtd May 08) recommended to improve RAM DoD Working Group formed to implement recommendations Reliability, Availability, and Maintainability Policy (dtd 21 Jul 08); Directs Components to set policy actions to ensure: Collaboration in the establishment of RAM requirements Development contracts and acquisition plans evaluate RAM during system design Maturation of RAM throughout the acquisition life cycle Use of contract incentives to achieve RAM goals ( 12
