Production Rate Variations Cost Models.

Abstract

This research examines a model that may be used to estimate the cost impact of production rate changes on a timely and real world basis. Part I analyzes current models that are being implemented by Air Force Systems Command, and demonstrates that these models are deficient in their theoretical definition and empirical construction. Part II presents current status of the development of a more realistic rate variations model for the F-16 aircraft program.
