Status of the Air Force's Improved Technology Maturity Assessment Project (TD-1-12)

Abstract

The Improved Technology Maturity Assessment Project (TD-1-12) consists of 1) Training for TRL Assessments, MRAs, future RI3; 2) Software TRL definition clarification; and 3) Risk Identification: Integration & 'ilities (RI3) methodology. This briefing discusses 1) improving existing techniques, 2) methodology for integration and 'ilities, and 3) worksheet and tool concepts. The goal of the program is to reduce schedule slip and cost growth due to immature technology by reducing the likelihood that immature technology is accepted into acquisition programs or by revealing up front the risks associated with accepting immature technology.
