Draft AFR 55-24, System Operational Concepts.

Abstract

This regulation outlines Air Force policies, procedures, and responsibilities for the preparation, processing, and approval of Preliminary System Operational Concept (PSOC), and System Operational Concept (SOC) documents. It specifies the timing, content, format and terminology of the PSOC and SOC cycle as it relates to the overall acquisition process. The PSOC and SOC publications are unique, user-oriented planning documents that describe an operating command's plans and intentions for the employment, deployment, and support of a specific system. The documents provide a description of the use environment, characteristics, parameters, technical performance, and support requirements of a proposed system or capability to satisfy a stated operational need. The SOC provides a continuing guidance/framework for system development during the acquisition cycle.
