3. ARB Review Success Criteria
FCR
DCR
For at least one architecture, a system built to arch. will:
• Support the Ops Concept
• Satisfy the Requirements
• Be faithful to the Prototype
• Be buildable within the budgets and schedules in the Plan
• Show viable business case
Key stakeholders committed to support Foundations Phase (to DCR)
For the selected architecture, a system built to the arch. will:
All major risks resolved or covered by risk management plan
Key stakeholders committed to support full life cycle 4

4. ARB Session Outline RDCR similar format to DCR, different focus:
More time on changes and updates
More time for Architecture, Plans
General rule on focus: emphasize your projects high risk areas
At FCR (in most cases) this will involve establishing the operational concept (including system analysis)
At DCR (in most cases) this will involve the system design and development plan (especially schedule)
At RDCR this will involve the system design and development plan and test plan 4

7. RDCR ARB – Architected Agile Teams
(x,y): (presentation time, total time)
(8, 10) Acceptance Test Plan and Cases; Team's strong and weak points + Shaping & Overall Project Evaluation; Full test plan and cases
(2, 3) OCD. System purpose; changes in current system and deficiencies,
proposed new system, system boundary, and desired capabilities and goals; top-level scenarios
(5,10) Prototype Update. Changes in significant capabilities (especially those with high risk if gotten wrong)
(2, 3) SSRD. ALL high priority or changes in requirements; rating for all others
(8, 10) Architecture. Overall and detailed architecture; design if critical; COTS/reuse selections (NOT JUST CHOICES)
(6, 8) Life Cycle Plan. At lease until CCD or as appropriate; Include plans for CTS
Team members’ roles & responsibilities in 577b, Full Iteration Plan
(5, 10) Feasibility Evidence. Focus on Risk Analysis
(0, 5) Feedback from Instructors
• Plan on 2 minutes per briefing chart, except title
• Focus on changes (particularly new things) since DCR
• You may vary from the above: please notify ARB board members IN ADVANCE
• QFP & QMP not presented/discussed due to time constraints.
