The Software Acquisition Resource Expenditure (SARE) Methodology, Data Requirements, and Data Utilization

Abstract

SARE reporting is a data collection methodology used to collect software-unique financial data plus technical data that make the financial data meaningful. The data can be used to monitor the progress of software development work on the contract in which the data is collected. Also, the data is to be submitted to a multiproject Air Force Systems Command (AFSC) software data base. The data base will help formulate, calibrate, and validate software cost/ schedule estimation methods.
