Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this guide is to assist DoD and contractor Program Managers (PMs), program offices and Integrated Product Teams (IPTs) in effectively managing program risks during the entire acquisition process, including sustainment. This guide contains baseline information and explanations for a well-structured risk management program. The management concepts and ideas presented here encourage the use of risk-based management practices and suggest a process to address program risks without prescribing specific methods or tools. Since this is a guide, the information presented within is not mandatory to follow, but PMs are encouraged to apply the fundamentals presented here. The guide should be used in conjunction with related directives, instructions, policy memoranda, or regulations issued to implement mandatory requirements. This guide has been structured to provide a basic understanding of risk management concepts and processes. It offers clear descriptions and concise explanations of core steps to assist in managing risks in acquisition programs. Its focuses on risk mitigation planning and implementation rather on risk avoidance, transfer, or assumption. There are several notable changes of emphasis in this guide from previous versions. These changes reflect lessons learned from application of risk management in DoD programs. management references can be found on the Defense Acquisition University Community of Practice website. This guide is supplemented by Defense Acquisition University (DAU) Risk Management Continuous Learning Module (key words: risk management and course number CLM017). The Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) office of primary responsibility (OPR) for this guide is OUSD(AT & L) Systems and Software Engineering, Enterprise Development (OUSD(AT & L) SSE/ED). This office will develop and coordinate updates to the guide as required, based on policy changes and customer feedback.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Acquisition excellence has changed the way the Department of Defense (DoD) designs, develops, manufactures, and supports systems. Our technical, business, and management approach for acquiring and operating systems has, and continues to, evolve. For example, we no longer can rely on military specifications and standards to define and control how our developers design, build, and support our new systems. Today we use commercial hardware and software, promote open systems architecture, and encourage streamlining processes, just to name a few of the initiatives that affect the way we do business. At the same time, the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) has reduced the level of oversight and review of programs and manufacturers' plants.
Download or read book Software Risk Assessment for DoD Acquisition Programs written by and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a guide for assessing computer software aspects of major defense system acquisition programs. IDA's methodology for software assessments is based on experience, and has been documented and refined through internally funded research. An assessment project reviews processes and resulting software products of a DoD acquisition program office and its contractors. Assessment is done by a technically well-qualified team that is independent of the program office. Results inform the program manager of problems and risks that threaten successful software delivery and also assist risk reduction decisions. This guide is provided to assist any DoD sponsored software assessment team. The Overview chapter summarizes IDA's methodology for program managers and acquisition executives who may need assessment assistance. Individual chapters define assessment phases and recommendations for conducting them. A checklist is given for identifying existing software problems and risks within an acquisition.

Download or read book Addressing Risk Management in Non Developmental Items Acquisition Programs written by and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nondevelopmental Items (NDI) acquisition programs are enjoying popular support as faster, cheaper alternatives to new start research and development programs. Unfortunately, DoD policy on risk management in NDI programs is lacking. In the new, less-restrictive DoD Directive 5000.1 Acquisition Policy and DoD Regulation 5000.2-R, the program manager (PM) is expected to tailor risk management practices to the needs of the program. Tailoring DoD risk management policy to support NDI program management leaves the PM too much guesswork. An NDI PM's risk management program cannot reasonably benefit from DoD risk management guidance, procedures, and tools because he or she is focused on new development program risks and risk management practices. Missing is any explicit consideration of unique NDI risks and risk management requirements. NDI PMs need more structured policy and instruction regarding NDI risk management for the streamlined, accelerated NDI acquisition environment. A lesson that we have learned is that we need a published risk management plan as the source of NDI risk management program decisions and actions. This article makes specific recommendations for including NDI risk management in DoD policy. An NDI is a previously developed federal, state, local, or foreign government item with little or no development effort required (5000.2-R, Part 3). NDI acquisition strategies look to governments or commercial vendors as sources for a developed and available item. DoDD 5000.1 encourages the armed services to use the most cost-effective materiel solution over a system's life cycle. The first choice among materiel alternatives after buying commercial off-the-shelf items is to procure or modify previously developed U.S. military or Allied systems or equipment.

Download or read book Unmanned Systems Safety Guide for DoD Acquisition written by and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Department of Defense Instruction (DoDI) 5000.1 instructs Program Mangers (PMs) to prevent Environment, Safety, and Occupational Health (ESOH) hazards, where possible, and manage ESOH hazards where they cannot be avoided. Further guidance regarding the prevention and management of ESOH hazards is also provided in the Defense Acquisition Guidebook (DAG), Section 2.3.14. This guide focuses on safety and health hazards and supports the overall ESOH risk management tenets of DoDI 5000.2. This Guide should be used in conjunction with the DoD Standard Practice for System Safety prescribed in Military Standard (MIL-STD) 882. The objective of this guidance is to ensure the design and development of Unmanned Systems (UMSs) technology that incorporate the necessary safety design rigor to prevent potential mishaps, or mitigate potential mishap risk. OSD directed this safety guidance also consider real and potential Concepts of Operation (CONOPS) of UMSs and establish fundamental operational safety requirements necessary to support safe operation of the UMS. This guidance provides a generic set of safety precepts and safety design considerations and establishes a starting point toward ensuring safety is a fundamental pillar of the acquisition process and incorporates those necessary design considerations to safely sustain UMSs. PMs for UMS and unmanned variants of manned systems are encouraged to apply this guidance to all UMS acquisition efforts and to all levels and elements of a UMS design: system, subsystem, hardware, and software. PMs should address the applicable programmatic, operational, and design precepts defined in this Guide at design reviews to include Critical Design Review (CDR). This guide should be used in conjunction with related directives, instructions, policy memoranda, or regulations issued to implement mandatory requirements.
