Planning Activities in Support of System X-II Development.

Abstract

This report covers the preliminary efforts by Advanced Technology, Inc. (ADTECH) to revise SYSTEM X(a series of case studies describing a hypothetical major weapons system acquisition) course material. It provides ADTECH's plans and approaches for preparation of new case study material, data assessment support requirements for selected case study exercises, and establishes the procedures for collecting, analyzing and cataloging data to support the new series of cases called SYSTEM X-II(SX-II). ADTECH's planning activities described in this report include the development of case topics and master outlines which identify management issues and the types of computer models required for use within SX-II. In addition, a listing by case study exercise of the programmatic documentation applicable to a hypothetical air-launch cruise missile (ALCM) program has been compiled for eventual preparation during a subsequent portion of the SX-II development effort. This report also contains briefing material used by DSMC's Systems Management Division to report progress toward meeting contractual requirements to the DSMC Commandant. (Author)
