Technology Readiness Assessment (TRA) Deskbook

Abstract

The body of this document is a concise description of suggested best practices, responsibilities, roles, and procedures for meeting the Technology Readiness Assessment (TRA) requirements of the Defense Acquisition System. The intent is to provide those involved with TRAs a greater understanding of how TRAs fit into defense acquisition and what is expected by the DUSD(S&T), which serves as the staff proponent for TRAs for the Director of Defense Research and Engineering (DDR&E). The potential benefit to other Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) and Service Component participants is also recognized.
