Happiness for the Prospective PM: An Approved LOA.

Abstract

The U.S. Army has implemented the use of the LOA(Letter of Agreement) as a unique and innovative method of defining system requirements in broad terms while development proceeds in the early advanced development phases. As the system development proceeds to full-scale development, a ROC(Required Operational Capability) is prepared to finalize need/requirements. This report traces the historical evolution of the LOA, defines the requirements of the LOA, traces the processing procedures and reports on its acceptance by the combat and materiel developer.
