Army Tactical Command and Control System (ATCCS) Benefit Analysis. Volume 1. Main Report with Executive Summary and Appendixes A-H

Abstract

The army tactical command and control system (ATCCS) cost benefit analysis (CBA) is a three-part study: benefit analysis, cost analysis, and a cost/benefit analysis. The ATCCS CBA is required to determine the extent to which an ATCCS common hardware and software (CHS) strategy is implementable and to determine associated costs and benefits. The ATCCS CBA is required to support a designated acquisition program (DAP) milestone III procurement decision for ATCCS CHS. The benefit analysis was designed to determine and compare various ATCCS automation alternatives and to determine relative benefits and a relative ranking. The benefit analysis will be combined with an ATCCS cost analysis for final rank ordering of the alternatives, conclusions, and recommendations. Results of the ATCCS benefit analysis are based on system descriptions, the Army Command and Control Master Plan, and the ATCCS family requirements and operational capability document. Analysis, conclusions, and recommendations are presented in two ways: literary and quantitative.
