Risk Assessment Methodology for Software Supportability (RAMSS): Pilot Evaluation Results and Methodology Refinement.

Abstract

The Risk Assessment Methodology for Software Supportability (RAMSS) was developed for the Air Force Operational Test and Evaluation Center (AFOTEC) to provide decision makers with information from which the risk to the Air Force of supporting a software system can be derived. The purpose of this report is to document a pilot application of the RAMSS and to describe the refinements and procedures necessary for AFOTEC for the pilot application the RAMSS to future programs. Additionally, this report includes an overview briefing of the RAMSS, and an Evaluator's Guide for use by AFOTEC personnel when applying the RAMSS to other systems.
