Requirements Analysis and Maturation
Abstract
The Requirements Analysis and Maturation (RAM) program executes integrated materiel studies and analyses across the AF enterprise (air, space, cyber, and weapons) in support of AF corporate structure processes for formulating, planning, and coordinating pre-systems acquisition planning and early systems engineering activities. This effort is in Budget Activity 4, Advanced Component Development and Prototypes, since it involves system specific efforts that expedite technology transition from the laboratory to operational use.
