Comprehensive Architecture Strategy (CAS)

Abstract

This document provides an introduction to a Comprehensive Architecture Strategy (CAS) for mission systems. The strategy integrates business and technical aspects to support the efficient development and sustainment of mission systems that meet business needs along with functional and performance needs. A managed architecture ensures components and systems are aligned to overarching business and technical objectives. This document also provides a common lexicon necessary to the understanding of the approach, and addresses, at a high level, the ideas necessary to shift current processes to support this strategy as well as guidance on how to document and apply those ideas.
