Software Acquisition Management Guidebook: Reviews and Audits.

Abstract

This report is one of a series of Software Acquisition Management Guidebooks which provide information and guidance for ESD Program Office personnel who are charged with planning and managing the acquisition of command, control, and communications system software procured under Air Force 800 series regulations and related software acquisition management concepts. It combines existing guidance regarding reviews and audits currently contained in a number of different official documents into a single document and narrows the focus of existing guidance to those problems inherent in software acquisition management. Where appropriate, existing guidance is extended to include practices and procedures based on the practical experience of the author and others in acquiring software. The objective of this document is to instruct Air Force Program Office personnel in the effective use of reviews and audits as management tools in acquiring software. (Author)
