CALS: White Paper Report on Functional Economic Analysis and the FEA Model (FEAM).

Abstract

The paper investigates the use, application, and lessons learned from our experiences in performance of Functional Economic Analyses with and without the aid of computer-based software. Initially promoted as a tool in support of the DoD Corporate Information Management (CIM) initiative, FEAs have become a requirement for any DoD funded project focusing on process improvement. The FEA is both an evolving methodology and a management tool to determine and document the costs and benefits of functional process improvements and related investments in information technology.
