Automated Unfunded Requirement System (AURS)

Abstract

The 412 MXG unfunded requirement (UR) development and execution process had a stakeholder satisfaction rating of 2.9 out of the 5.0 goal. The mediocre rating was influence by the lack of efficiency of the manual process, which was creating equipment/service acquisition, disposal, and cost control issues. As a result, it delayed meeting customers expectations in replacing or upgrading equipment that are beyond their useful life cycle. This led to the end-users failing to acquiring and installing new equipment and disposing of old equipment in a timely manner. Additionally, end-users acquired equipment/services that had not been prioritized or approved by management in some cases. Moreover, acquisitions were made that did not meet end-users requirements because specifications were not validated, sustainment requirements were not addressed, and in one case, the equipment did not fit the location it was intended to be installed.
