Analysis of Current Policies and practices Regarding Data Rights in Competitive Weapon System Acquisitions.

Abstract

This final report discusses the research and analysis of current policies and practices regarding data and data rights in competitive weapon system acquisitions. Data and data rights problems are discussed, based on in-depth interviews with Program Office personnel and analysis of historical data of the following competitive weapon system acquisitions: ASPJ, C-5A Mod, DIVAD, E-2(C), E-4, F-18, Flight Simulator, HARM, KC-135, NGT, SES, XM-1 Tank, and XM-1 120 mm Gun. Based on the research, observations and suggested corrective actions to policies and practices are presented. A taxonomy of data and data rights and a dictionary of related terms were also developed as a result of the research. In addition, an appendix of relevant Defense Acquisition Regulation (DAR)/Armed Services Procurement Regulation (ASPR) clauses is included in the report, as is a listing of references and a bibliography.
