The Application of Design-To-Cost Acquisition Policies to Selected Electronics-Subsystem Development Programs.

Abstract

This interim report presents the early preliminary findings in a research effort to observe, record, and analyze DoD's experience with the application of the design-to-cost (DTC) weapons acquisition policy to electronics subsystems. This investigation covered eight DDR and E 'price-limited' prototype experiments and six electronics subsystems of major defense systems, involving 27 defense contractors.
