Feasibility and Development Study for a System Acquisition Strategy Model.

Abstract

The feasibility of developing an analytic model for use in selecting an acquisition strategy for research, development, and production of major weapons systems is studied in detail. The concept of weapon system acquisition strategy is broken into its constituent parts and thoroughly examined. A feasible modeling approach is described. It incorporated differing strategy alternatives, the impact of influencing factors, and the use of historical data by the development of a multiattribute utility model which can be tailored to reflect the needs and constraints of a particular program.
