CDFM Module 4
10 USC 2435 - ANS-Where we get the statutory authority to do stuff. It says the DoD may
not obligate budget for an MDAP after the program enters System Development and
Demonstration with out a Milestone Decision Authority-authorised baseline except the
USD(AT&L) in particular approves the obligation. Four.1.19
2 Categories of Cost - ANS-Lifecycle and Total Ownership 4.Three.7
2 Kinds of Performance Indices - ANS-Cost Performance and Schedule Performance
four.Three.48
2 kinds of Unit Cost Reports - ANS-Significant Cost Growth Notification and Critical Cost
Breach Certification
-Significant is when APUC or PAUC exceeds 15% of CURRENT APB or 30% of ORIGINAL
APB
-Critical is whilst APUC or PAUC exceeds 25% of CURRENT APB or 50% of ORIGINAL
APB 4.9.25
3 Levels of Integrated Product Teams - ANS-1. Overarching Integrated Product Team (OIPT)
2. Integrating Integrated Product Team (IIPT)
three. Working Level Integrated Product Team (WIPT) four.2.7
three Steps within the Performance Measurement Baseline (PMB) Development - ANS-1.
Outline the paintings scope and smash it into manageable work applications
2. Determine the assignment relationships among the paintings packages and time table the
paintings packages into a logical network
3. Classify the work, allocate the price range, and time phase the manage account paintings
package deal budgets four.Three.Forty four
three terms associated with realignment of the PMB (Performance Measurement Baseline) -
ANS-1. Rebaselining - Improves the correlation among the work plan and the baseline
finances. Consists of Replanning and Reprogramming.
2. Replanning - realignment of agenda or reallocation of price range for last effort WITHIN
the prevailing constraints of the contract.
3. Reprogramming - realignment of the last overall performance measurement baseline that
effects in a complete finances or schedule that EXCEEDS the agreement. 4.3.46
four Major Technical and Engineering Reviews throughout the acquisition process -
ANS--Materiel Development Review inside the Materiel Solution Analysis Phase
-Preliminary Design Review within the Engineering & Manufacturing Development Phase
-Critical Design Review inside the Engineering & Manufacturing Development Phase
-Full Rate Production Review in the Production and Deployment Phase 4.9.6
ACAT I"D" and IA"M" Programs - ANS-These packages can have an OIPT to provide help
and oversight. An suitable authentic inside OSD, i.E., Director, Defense Systems or the
Deputy to the ASD(NII) for IT acquisitions, will lead the OIPT. Four.Nine.13
Acquisition - ANS-This is one of the Life Cycle Sustainment activities. The device officially
enters this manner at Milestone B, while Milestone Decision Authority approval lets in the
device to enter the Engineering and Manufacturing Development (EMD) Phase. A key
Life-Cycle Sustainment emphasis at some point of EMD is to make certain operational
supportability with specific interest to minimizing the logistics
, footprint. Four.Four.7
Acquisition Category I and IA (Automated Information Systems) - ANS-These and other
excessive-hobby programs' JCIDS are reviewed and tested with the aid of JROC prior to
Milestone A.
Acquisition of Services - ANS-The acquisition of offerings does now not observe the materiel
systems phases, however has 5 elements that ought to be addressed. The 5th element is
Clinger-Cohen Act Compliance. Four.10.25
Acquisition Strategy - ANS-Guides the purchase segment and is made out of 21 topics.
Either evolutionary or single object - evolutionary preferred. Single step is while you make a
dedication as to what you want, then you definately purchase it (ex: rifles) four.1.15
Actual Costs and Engineering Cost Estimates - ANS-Detailed fee estimating techniques
used later within the existence of the acquisition machine. 4.Three.27
ACWP (Actual Cost of Work Performed) - ANS-the price incurred and recorded for overall
performance dimension purposes inside a given time period and is really the real value.
Four.Three.Forty
Affordability Assessment - ANS-For fundamental defense acquisition applications and
important automatic data machine programs, those checks are required at Milestones B and
C. Their purpose is for the DoD Component to demonstrate that this system's projected
funding and manpower requirements are realistic and possible. The assessment generally
should be performed by using useful resource analysts inside the DoD Component
headquarters or supporting corporation. Four.3.2
Agility - ANS-A key feature of a net-centric environment. How a great deal statistics and the
way speedy. Four.6.Eight
Analysis of Alternatives (AoA) - ANS-Required at major milestone decision factors and at the
total-price production decision (or their equivalents). It's used to assess the ability cloth
answers to satisfy the functionality desires within the accepted Initial Capabilities Document.
Four.Three.Sixteen
Apportioned Effort EV Technique - ANS-This is an EV technique as well as a piece package
class. An apportioned attempt paintings undertaking is commonly a assist project or
workforce characteristic which may be tied to a discrete undertaking or set of obligations. For
instance, a high-quality guarantee that inspects a statistical sample of a finished product.
4.3.42
APUC (Acquisition Procurement Unit Cost) versus PAUC (Program Acquisition Unit Cost) -
ANS--APUC consists of flyaway prices, aid gadgets, and preliminary spares
(Procurement-simplest finances, now not RTD&E, MILCON, or O&M). -PAUC includes
RTD&E, Procurement, and MILCON (no longer O&M) four.Three.10
Assurance - ANS-A key function of a net-centric surroundings. Achieving predicted degrees
of operational and structures performance within a special context. 4.6.8
At Milestone Decision Point A - ANS-The MDA opinions the proposed Technology
Development Strategy (TDS)
At Milestone Decision Point B - ANS-Technology Readiness Assessments are reviewed.
Four.9.Three
BCWP (Budgeted Cost of Work Performed) - ANS-Also called Earned Value. The fee of all
paintings truely completed in a given period of time and represents the completion of labor.
Four.3.40
BCWP-ACWP - ANS-If this is a negative number, there was a cost overrun. If it is a fantastic
number, the task is below cost. Four.3.59
10 USC 2435 - ANS-Where we get the statutory authority to do stuff. It says the DoD may
not obligate budget for an MDAP after the program enters System Development and
