Air 03 Readiness Improvement Program - Phase II Approach,
Abstract
This report presents a plan designed to provide the Navy with the in-house capability for ensuring adequate and cost effective readiness in all its advanced technology programs. The plan provides an evolutionary and systematic growth to the highest payoff capability over a four year timeframe. It involves as a minimum technical administrators, field activity managers lead project engineers. Maximum payoff requires the development and maintenance of a strong in-house readiness technical base located at the laboratory level which is functionally oriented along major weapon subsystem lines (i.e., airframe, power plant, avionics and armament). Until the technology base concept is fully developed, validated and implemented across all AIR O3 technologies, increased awareness, the wider and more intensive application of present assurance disciplines augmented with available quantitative analysis methods are recommended as the primary vehicle for assuring readiness. The concepts recommended in this plan were developed through a qualitative assessment of the present acquisition and management methods used to assure readiness. Several on going and historic technology programs were used in the study. Both in-house and industry perspectives were considered.
