A business and technical management approach designed to achieve
program objectives within the resource constraints imposed. Ans✓✓✓
Acquisition Strategy
,A comprehensive, integrated plan that identifies the acquisition
approach, and describes the business, technical, and support strategies
that management will follow to manage program risks and meet program
objectives. Ans✓✓✓ Acquisition Strategy
A detailed and time consuming method, it associates costs to the lowest
definable work levels found in the WBS (bottoms up method). It is very
accurate. Ans✓✓✓ Engineering
A formal examination of a program to determine if the design is ready
for production and if the producer has accomplished adequate
production planning. Ans✓✓✓ PRR- Production Readiness Review
A formal review intended to obtain certification that the system-level
End Product is ready for Initial Operational Test and Evaluation
(IOT&E). Ans✓✓✓ OTRR- Operational Test Readiness Review
A general agreement by all team members that they can live with and be
committed to a particular course of action. Ans✓✓✓ CONSENSUS
A list of activities and events organized by time. Ans✓✓✓ Scheduling
A management approach that integrates all activities from product
concept through production/deployment and support. Ans✓✓✓
Integrated Product and Process Development (IPPD)
, A measure of future uncertainties in achieving program goals and

performance requirements within cost, schedule, risk, and other system
constraints. Ans✓✓✓ CDR- Critical Design Review
A multi-disciplined technical review to ensure that a system can proceed
into preliminary design, and that all system requirements and functional
performance requirements derived from the Capability Development
Document are defined and are consistent with program budget, schedule,
risk, and other system constraints. Ans✓✓✓ SFR- System Functional
