Army Tactical Command and Control System (ATCCS) Cost Benefit Analysis

Abstract

The Army Tactical Command and Control System (ATCCS) Cost Benefit Analysis (CBA) is a three part study: benefit analysis, cost analysis, and cost/ benefit comparison analysis. The ATCCS CBA is required to determine the extent to which an ATCCS Common Hardware and Software (CHS) strategy is implementable, as well as associated costs and benefits. The ATCCS CBA is required to support a Designated Acquisition Program (DAP) Milestone III procurement decision for ATCCS CHS. The cost/benefit analysis was designed to determine and compare various ATCCS automation alternatives, determine relative costs and benefits, and determine relative ranking based on a comparison of the costs and benefits. Results of tha ATCCS CBA are based on system descriptions, the Army Command and Control Master Plan, the ATCCS Family Requirements and Operational Capability Document, Battlefield. Keywords: Information systems; Battlefield computer systems; Rank order.
