Open Systems Acquisition & Supportability Guide

Abstract

The purpose of this Guide is to provide program managers, their staffs, supporting warfare centers, laboratories, and contractors with a framework of open system acquisition and supportability planning knowledge. This knowledge, tailored for specific program usage, will enable them to: (1) identify and address issues and considerations which are unique or more prevalent in an open system acquisition, and (2) work together comfortably and cost effectively to transition from use of Department of Defense (DoD) unique interfaces to commercially based open architectures.
