Technical and Economic Analysis of Standardization and Independent Subsystem Development. Volume I.

Abstract

Using a case study method, this report identifies the following problems associated with the development of major subsystems for military equipment: (1) poor field reliability, (2) schedule slippage, (3) unsatisfactory performance, (4) excessive production and logistics costs. Partial solutions to these problems include early development, independent development or standardization of selected subsystems. The applicability of these solutions is investigated. (Author)
