Weapon System Effectiveness Industry Advisory Committee (WSEIAC). Final Report of Task Group VI, Chairman's Final Report (Integrated Summary)

Abstract

The principal findings, conclusions, and recommendations of the five WSEIAC Task Groups are presented in summary form. The system effectiveness problem is examined in light of the task group investigations. A fifteen-step procedure for cost-effectiveness assurance is presented. Application of the method and results to be expected in each phase of a system life-cycle are described. The impact on existing disciplines is examined. A section of this integrated summary contains abstracts and summaries of each of the ten reports submitted y the five Task Groups. Appendix I contains a more detailed treatment of the fifteen recommended tasks. Appendix II presents an example of application of this methodology shown for a hypothetical system in the Conceptual Phase. Finally, Appendix III is a glossary of effectiveness/costeffectiveness terms.
