To use public funds effectively, the gov¿t. must meet the demands of today's changing world by employing effective mgmt. practices and processes, including the measurement of gov¿t. program performance. Legislators, gov¿t. officials, and the public want to know whether gov¿t. programs are achieving their goals and what their costs are. To make those evaluations, reliable cost information is required and fed. standards have been issued for the cost accounting that is needed to prepare that information. This Cost Guide has been developed in order to establish a consistent methodology that is based on best practices and that can be used across the fed. gov¿t. for developing, managing, and evaluating capital program cost estimates. Illustrations.

Since 1990, the DoD mgmt. of major weapon system acquisitions has been designated a high-risk area. DoD has taken some action to improve acquisition outcomes, but its weapons programs continue to take longer, cost more, and deliver fewer capabilities than originally planned. Over the next 5 years, DoD plans to invest about $900 billion to develop and procure weapons systems -- the highest level of investment in two decades. This testimony describes DoD¿s current weapons system investment portfolio, the problems that contribute to cost and schedule increases, and the potential impacts of recent legislative initiatives and DoD actions aimed at improving outcomes. Charts and tables.

The Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) is the DoD¿s most complex and ambitious aircraft acquisition, seeking to simultaneously produce and field three different versions of the aircraft for the Air Force, Navy, Marine Corps, and eight international partners. The total investment required now exceeds $1 trillion -- more than $300 billion to acquire 2,456 aircraft and $760 billion in life cycle operating and support costs, according to program estimates. This report: (1) determines the program's progress in meeting cost, schedule, and performance goals; (2) assesses manufacturing results and schedule risks; and (3) evaluates development test plans, progress, and risks.

In 2006, the cumulative cost growth in DoD¿s portfolio of 96 major defense acquisition programs was $296 billion and the average delay in delivering promised capabilities to the warfighter was 22 months. These are very poor outcomes. The auditor has used metrics to review the mgmt. and health of these programs from within the framework of best practices. This testimony discusses: (1) ¿knowledge metrics,¿ used to determine how well programs manage tech., design, and manufacturing risks; (2) outcome metrics -- concerning cost, schedule, and capability -- that serve as ¿health indicators¿ of how well programs are being executed in terms of predicted outcomes; and (3) the prerequisites that must be met in order for a program¿s plans and goals to be realistic.

There has been a lot of innovation in systems engineering and some fundamental advances in the field of optics, imaging, lasers, and photonics that warrant attention. This volume focuses on applications, tools, and techniques of systems engineering‐related topics from government, industrial, and academic settings such as development and operations (DevOps), agile methods, and the concept of the “digital twin.” Handbook of Systems Engineering and Analysis of Electro‐Optical and Infrared Systems: Applications, Tools, and Techniques offers more information on the application of decision and risk analysis and statistical methods in systems engineering such as design of experiments (DOX) methods, including statistical process control, hypothesis testing, analysis of variance, blocking, 2k factorial analysis, and regression analysis. It includes new material using model‐based systems engineering and systems architecture methods in a system‐level design application. The integration of recent high‐speed atmospheric turbulence research results in the optical technical examples and case studies to illustrate the new developments is also included. A presentation of new optical technical materials for adaptive optics (AO) and atmospheric turbulence compensation (ATC) systems that are based on illumination from passive sources (natural light) or active sources (coherent light like from lasers) provides the technical focus for the systems engineering methods and techniques. Chapter 13 focuses on the technical aspects of the design process and uses the systems-level design as an illustration. In addition to covering lifecycle cost estimation methods and applying them to an integrated case study that is used to illustrate important concepts and techniques throughout this work, the final section brings everything together in terms of technical, cost, and schedule performance. Because this volume blends modern‐day systems engineering methods with detailed optical systems analysis and applies these methodologies to EO/IR systems, this new edition is an excellent text for professionals in STEM disciplines that work with optical or infrared systems. It’s also a great practical reference text for the practicing engineer and a solid educational text for graduate‐level systems engineering, engineering, science, and technology students.

Decades of nuclear materials production at the Dept. of Energy¿s (DoE) Savannah River Site in S. Carolina have left 37 million gallons of radioactive liquid waste in 49 underground storage tanks. In Dec. 2008, DoE entered into a contract with Savannah River Remediation, LLC (SRR) to close, by 2017, 22 of the highest-risk tanks at a cost of $3.2 billion. This report assessed: (1) DoE¿s cost estimates and schedule for closing the tanks at the Savannah River Site; and (2) the primary challenges, if any, to closing the tanks and the steps DoE has taken to address them. The auditor visited the Savannah River Site and reviewed tank closure documents. Includes recommendations. Charts and tables. This is a print on demand report.
