Air Force Systems Command Software Independent Verification and Validation Implementation Analysis and Guidance

Abstract

Software Independent Verification and Validation (IV & V) implementation across AD4FSC is varied. These variances cause non-uniform application of IV & V even when applied with common software development practices. The analysis shows that IV & V is being implemented within the intent of the governing regulation and standards. However, there is a need for common guidance for IV & V use. The study presents two levels of guidance; one for contracting and one for management oversight within AFSC. The expected results are improved IV & V use when integrated with common development practices. This should improve systems that depend on software as a key element.
