Operational Suitability Guide. Volume 1. A Tutorial

Abstract

Volume I of the Operational Suitability Guide was prepared by the Office of the Director of Operational Test and Evaluation (ODOT&E) to provide an overview of those issues that are included in the general subject of operational suitability, and to provide background information for DOT&E Staff Assistants to use when examining operational suitability subjects. The document discusses each of the operational suitability elements, i.e., reliability, maintainability, safety, human factors, availability, logistic supportability, etc.; the parameters used during OT&E for each element; and key points to be remembered in the area of each element. The report includes as an appendix the Service Operational Test Agencies (OTA) Memorandum of Agreement on Common Reliability, Availability, and Maintainability Terminology.
