Develop Technology Development Strategy Reduce technology risk and determine appropriate set of technologies to integrate into a full system. Develop a system or increment of capability; reduce integration and manufacturing risk; ensure operational supportability; reduce logistics footprint; implement human systems integration; design for producibility; ensure affordability and protection of critical program information; and demonstrate system integration, interoperability, safety, and utility. Achieve operational capability that satisfies mission needs. Execute a support program that meets operational support performance requirements and sustains the system in the most cost-effective manner over its total life cycle. Dispose of the system in the most cost-effective manner at the end of its useful life.

It provides a notional illustration of the interfaces among the three major decision support systems used to develop, produce, and field a system for national defense. Defense acquisition is a complex process, with many more activities than shown here, and many concurrent processes that cannot be properly displayed on a two-dimensional chart.

16. Knowledge Sharing-Lessons Learned KM must be integrated into the business of the business Leadership at all levels of the enterprise is critical – Need to “Walk the Talk” Dedicated human resources - critical for systems development and life cycle asset management Powerful IT infrastructure needed for availability, reliability, performance and growth Build on and leverage the natural organizations, communities and content you have Provide a self-help community of practice system, with “kick start” support team. This is the main knowledge “engine”. Focus on helping your workforce do their jobs more efficiently and effectively. Focus on “what’s in it for them”. Incentivize thru awards and rewards. Knowledge Sharing is a marathon, not a sprint

20. AT&L Knowledge Sharing System AKSS is the KM repository that provides mandatory policy and references documents supporting the AT&L Workforce - Portal based / foundation for “Big A” portal in FY 08/09 timeframe - Leverages RSS feeds and filtering vs personalization for current phase of deployment - Includes Ask-a-Professor feature - Links to “Golden Sources” to the maximum extent possible

21. ACC is a nest of collaborative communities created through partnerships w/Services, Agencies, and Industry to support knowledge sharing across Defense Acquisition.  15 CoPs, 24 SIAs, 400+ workspaces  45,800+ registered users  ~1,800 new members per month  ~4 Million page views per month  ~23,000 contact hours per month  Creates conditions that foster collaboration across organizational boundaries ACC Supports DoD Sharing and Ownership Acquisition Community Connection

22. Best Practices Clearinghouse Launched March 2008 BPCh facilitates the selection and implementation of systems engineering and software acquisition practices specific to the needs of individual acquisition programs. Focus is on practices, and evidence of practice implementation, in context with the user’s program and need Expanding to cover all AT&L functional areas, Requirements and Human Capital Management

23. ACQuire Enterprise Search ACQuire is a search tool focused on the specific needs of the acquisition workforce - Uses DAU Acquisition Taxonomy - Supports search or topic navigation - Context-based search - Allows user to narrow search to specific libraries - Searches into online DAU courses - Only searches trusted sources

24. Knowledge Document Gateways Defense Acquisition Guidebook (DAG)Integrated Framework Chart (IFC) Allows users to navigate through Guidebook via document index, graphical interface, or topical view and provides integrated links to all references mentioned Web-enabled version of the pictorial roadmap of key activities in the system acquisition processes linked to support templates maintained inside of the Acquisition Community Connection
