with correct answers
A configuration management program should focus on ensuring designs are
traceable to capability needs, developmental changes are controlled and
documented, interfaces are well-defined and understood, and
_______________________________. - Answer All product documentation is
consistent with its supporting information.
Which technical review is held during the Technology Maturation and Risk
Reduction phase to ascertain progress in defining system technical requirements? -
Answer System Requirements Review (SRR)
Program cost increases and schedules slips are most likely caused by
__________________, changes to the design, and changes to the production
processes. - Answer Changes to user capability needs.
What group is used to help control the configuration of external interfaces for a
system? - Answer Interface Control Working Group
Your new-start program was approved this year's Authorization Bill and you are
currently operating under Continuing Resolution Authority. To avoid losing a top
engineering from your program, you authorial the Contractor to begin work since
you expect the Appointment Bill to be signed next week. You are now in conflict
with the _____. - Answer Anti-Deficiency Act
Cost, schedule, and performance parameters are interrelated and a change in one
parameters can affect the others. Therefore it is important to involve all the key
stakeholders when considering changes to Acquisition Program Baseline (APB). -
Answer True
, The Joint Interoperability Test Command (JITC) verifies ________________
through the field assessment of systems during exercises and contingencies, and
provides certificates of _____________ upon validation. - Answer
Interoperability performance/ interoperability.
Which of the following configuration baselines provides the details from which a
contractor can transition from design to production of a system? - Answer
Product Baseline
In the interest of independent reporting, Developmental Test and Evaluation
(DT&E) and Operational Test and Evaluation (OT&E) activities may NOT be
integrated. - Answer False
Changes are typical in acquisition programs; therefore, it is important to develop a
sound configuration management strategy, place the Government in control of each
element of the baselines, and design enough flexibility into the system to handle
enhancements. - Answer False.
The _____________ includes details of processes, procedures, and materials used
in fabrication and is usually controlled by the contractor. - Answer Product
Baseline.
A new capability need has surfaced to modify an existing U.S. command and
control system so that it can exchange information with a system operated by a
European ally. Which of the following software best practices must be followed in
order to successfully make this modification? - Answer Define and control
interfaces
When using the cause-and-effect (Fishbone) diagram to resolve an acquisition
problem, after you draw the fishbone diagram, the next step is to
____________________. - Answer Define the problem
