Risk Analysis of the Army Production Plan for Self-Propelled Howitzers.

Abstract

The M109 and M110 self-propelled howitzers are presently being product-improved. This analysis assessed the risks of achieving the milestones prescribed by the production plans for both howitzers. Based on the relationships/interfaces among the milestones, a network model was developed to depict these relationships and serve as a road map for accomplishing the goals within the desired time frame. The results indicated a high risk of meeting the schedule for full release with an expected slippage of 12 months for the M109 and 5-1/2 months for the M110A1. (Author)
