DoD 3235.1-H (3rd Ed), TEST AND EVALUATION OF SYSTEM RELIABILITY, AVAILABILITY, & MAINTAINABILITY (A PRIMER). One step in the acquisition of military weapon systems and equipment is the
verification that the candidate systems do, in fact, perform in accordance
with previously specified operational requirements. The verification process
involves the design of test programs which provide an adequate data base to
support realistic assessments of hardware characteristics. This text outlines
the concepts and techniques to be used in structuring such test programs and
analyzing the resulting data.
Since verifying the performance of every hardware item to be procured is
neither practical nor possible, we base our projection of the entire population’s
performance on the assessment of an available sample. This sample may
consist of the first 10 preproduction aircraft of a projected buy of 725 or 50
percent of a lot of high-reliability pyrotechnic devices. In either case, we
are utilizing statistical techniques to project or estimate the true value of
some population’s characteristic, such as reliability, maintainability,
weight, size, etc.
The material contained in the following chapters is designed to familiarize
the reader with the various statistical concepts and techniques required to
thoroughly understand the relationships among test design, assessment and
projection of population characteristics.
The beginning chapters present background material on the three basic quantitative
system parameters: reliability, availability and maintainability. The
various definitions of these basic terms are discussed, as are the relationships
among these parameters. The statistical concepts of confidence and
producer’s and consumer’s risk are next introduced, with the majority of the
text devoted to the practical application and significance of these concepts.
The chapters utilize a combination of narrative and case studies to introduce
and illustrate the usefulness of the concepts. It will prove quite useful to
refer to the case studies while reading through the chapters. This study
technique will prove especially helpful in Chapters 7 and 8, which present
information on analyzing test data and structuring statistically adequate test
programs. Chapter 9 contains an introductory discussion of the reliability
growth concept. Chapter 10 presents qualitative aspects of test planning
along with a description of data collection requirements.

DoD 4245.7-M TRANSITION FROM DEVELOPMENT TO PRODUCTION. A key to successfully managing cost and scheduling while producing high-quality products is the template approach. The assumptions for the template effort are different from most government improvement efforts. First, the template approach recognizes that weapons systems acquisition is an industrial process and not a purchasing process. Secondly, the template advocates believe that both government and industry employees really want to do their best, but do not know how to proceed. Thirdly, the template approach provides employees with the needed background to understand the engineering and management discipline behind the standards and regulations. The templates as defined in DoD 4245.7-M are not the final word on disciplined engineering practices or reducing technical risks. Instead, the templates are a reference and a model that engineers and managers apply to their own industrial processes. The DoD template approach addresses the need for good engineering discipline in all aspects of systems acquisition. The disciplined approach is essential for success in both the military and commercial arenas

interim guidance established in a February 20, 2004, memorandum from the Director,
Program Analysis and Evaluation (Reference (d)).
This Manual serves as the primary requirements document for the development,
implementation, and operation of the contractor cost data reporting (CCDR) and software
resources data reporting (SRDR) systems, collectively referred to as the cost and software
data reporting (CSDR) system. It provides background information and detailed
requirements for implementing the mandatory CCDR and SRDR policies established in

DOD 5000.4-M-1M, CONTRACTOR COST DATA REPORTING (CCDR) MANUAL (APRIL 16, 1999). The Contractor Cost Data Reporting (CCDR) system, as it exists today, is the
product of over 50 years of events and decisions within the defense community that have
affected the quality and utility of the data it contains. This Manual, developed jointly by
the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) and the Services with industry
participation, serves as the primary source of information about operation and use of the
CCDR system. It is the result of a major re-engineering effort to update the CCDR
Pamphlet, which has not been changed since it was first issued in 1973. In addition to
restating the mandatory guidance found in DoD 5000.2-R, the new manual contains
recommended guidelines for contractors, program offices, and other stakeholders to
facilitate CCDR planning and reporting. Mandatory contractor and subcontractor
guidance is based on requirements stated in their contracts and subcontracts, respectively.
A primary focus of this Manual is to ensure adequate contract planning that results in the
appropriate contractual language to make the intended reporting requirements
contractually binding. Appendix 1 describes the circumstances that gave rise to the
demand for the cost information reported in the CCDR and explains how this form of

DOD ARCHITECTURE FRAMEWORK DESKBOOK (VERSION 1.0), DOD ARCHITECTURE FRAMEWORK WORKING GROUP (15 AUG 2003)., The Department of Defense (DoD) Architecture Framework (DoDAF), Version 1.0, defines a
common approach for DoD architecture description development, presentation, and integration.
The Framework enables architecture descriptions to be compared and related across
organizational boundaries, including Joint and multinational boundaries.
The Framework is partitioned into two volumes and a Deskbook. Volume I provides
definitions, guidelines, and some background material. Volume II contains descriptions of each
of the product types. This third volume is the DoD Architecture Framework Deskbook and
provides supplementary guidance to Framework users.
The Deskbook presents several techniques for developing and using architectures. These
various techniques were developed by different segments of the DoD community and do not
represent coordinated community positions. Volumes I and II presented mandatory guidance to
the DoD community. The techniques presented in this Deskbook are not mandatory but are
provided for their insights and potential utility to the reader. However, readers should determine
the applicability of a technique to their individual situation.
Because this Deskbook is being published as part of the DoDAF, the techniques herein were
developed during the time that the C4ISR Architecture Framework was operative. Some, but not
all, of the material ha s been updated to reflect the DoDAF. The reader may see some material
that is C4ISR Architecture Framework specific. These small discrepancies should not interfere
with the DoDAF-related value of the material.
The Deskbook also provides additional material for topics that were introduced in Volumes I
and II. This material includes the All-DoD Core Architecture Data Model (CADM), architecture
tools, Federal Enterprise Architecture Reference Models, and Universal Reference Resources.

DOD INTEGRATED PRODUCT AND PROCESS DEVELOPMENT (IPPD) HANDBOOK (AUGUST 1998). The 5000.2-R regulation describes the DoD acquisition process
for MDAPs and MAIS acquisition programs incorporating IPPD principles. It defines IPPD as—
A management technique that simultaneously integrates all essential acquisition activities
through the use of multidisciplinary teams to optimize the design, manufacturing and
supportability processes. IPPD facilitates meeting cost and performance objectives from
product concept through production, including field support. One of the key IPPD tenets is
multidisciplinary teamwork through Integrated Product Teams (IPTs).
This handbook expands upon the government and industry guidance provided in the DoD Guide to
IPPD by providing suggestions and examples of specific ways to implement IPPD. Like the DoD
Guide to IPPD, it is non-directive. It suggests solutions to difficulties that might be encountered in
IPPD implementation and explains tools and techniques that can be used throughout a product’s life
cycle. It is not, however, an in-depth application manual for specific tools, nor does it attempt to
cover all of the tools available—only representative ones from many different categories.

E3 AND SM ASSESSMENT GUIDE FOR OPERATIONAL TESTING (13 JUN 2001)., This guide establishes Electromagnetic Environmental Effects (E3) and Spectrum Management
(SM) assessment criteria for acquisition programs to assist Director, Operational Test and
Evaluation (DOT&E) assessors, Operational Test Agencies (OTAs), and acquisition Program
Managers (PMs) in executing the DOT&E “Policy on Operational Test and Evaluation of
Electromagnetic Environmental Effects and Spectrum Management” (See Appendix A).
Through the use of this guide, adverse E3 and SM issues can be identified during the early lifecycle
phases of the acquisition process.
E3 is defined as the impact of the electromagnetic environment upon the operational capability
of military forces, equipment, systems, and platforms. It encompasses all electromagnetic
disciplines, including electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)/electromagnetic interference (EMI);
electromagnetic vulnerability (EMV); electromagnetic pulse (EMP); electronic protection (EP);
hazards of electromagnetic radiation to personnel (HERP), ordnance (HERO), and volatile
materials (HERF); and natural phenomenon effects of lightning and precipitation static (PStatic).
SM is defined as planning, coordinating, and managing the use of the electromagnetic spectrum
through operational, engineering, and administrative procedures, with the objective of enabling
electronic systems to perform their functions in the intended environment without causing or
suffering unacceptable interference. The major components of SM are spectrum certification
(SC) and frequency assignment. SC is the process (called the JF-12 Process) by which spectrumdependent
systems/equipment are certified to operate in a portion of the electromagnetic
spectrum. Frequency assignment is the operational process that gives the users the authority to
operate a fielded, spectrum-dependent system2 at specific locations on assigned frequencies
within the allocated frequency band.
In military operations, the control of E3 and the application of SM are concerned with promoting
efficient, compatible use of the electromagnetic spectrum among military forces.

This guide is intended to assist government and industry personnel in applying flexible packaging practices to meet the requirements of new and legacy equipment. It can be used as a tool for program managers, logistics managers, contracting officers, packaging subject matter experts, DCMA personnel and industry personnel to leverage commercial packaging practices, where possible, to meet defense packaging requirements. To retain a professionally competent workforce, it is imperative that knowledge about packaging practices be preserved. As an integrated resource tool across multi-functional lines, this guide will provide sufficient information to meet the needs of a large segment of readers with its contents. For others, the intent is to identify the additional resources and governing documentation that are relevant to the packaging body of knowledge.
INTEGRATED DOD GUIDE TO PERFORMANCE-BASED PACKAGING PRACTICES, OSD, AT&L (OCT 2002)., This guidebook also includes an extensive list of appendices designed to serve as a quick reference dealing with issues discussed in the text. This document is for guidance only and not to be cited on contracts.

PMBOK GUIDE (1ST EDITION), U.S. DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE EXTENSION TO: A GUIDE TO THE PROJECT MANAGEMENT KNOWLEDGE BODY OF KNOWLEDGE (PMBOK GUIDE). This document is the first edition (2003) of a U.S. Department of Defense (DoD)
Extension to the Project Management Institute’s (PMI®) A Guide to the Project Management
Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide) 2000 Edition.
The primary purpose of this document is to identify and describe defense applications
of the core project management knowledge areas contained in the PMBOK® Guide,
as well as those defense-intensive knowledge areas not contained in the Guide. It is important
to understand that this is an extension to the PMBOK® Guide, and is not intended
to be a stand-alone document. The PMBOK® Guide is a valuable document in its
own right and its principles need to be understood and practiced by DoD Program Managers
(PM).
This Extension generally follows United States Department of Defense (hereinafter
referred to as DoD) acquisition system policies and procedures (principally found in the
DoD 5000 series directives – DoDD 5000.1, DoDI 5000.2, and Interim Defense Acquisition
Guidebook (IDAG)). However, many of the concepts are generic to defense acquisition
worldwide.

SD-15, DEFENSE STANDARDIZATION PROGRAM, PERFORMANCE SPECIFICATION GUIDE (JUN 29, 1995). On June 29, 1994, the Secretary of Defense directed sweeping reform of military
specifications and standards. The Secretary directed the Department of Defense to make greater
use of performance and commercial requirements in the acquisition process. Performance
specifications are preferred over detail specifications.
This document offers guidance on how to write performance specifications. The
information is applicable to all types of materiel: systems, subsystems, assemblies, components,
and parts. It is not meant to be a “cookbook” approach to developing performance
specifications, but a guidance tool to provide direction and to shape the overall thought process.
The SD-15 is intended to be a “living document” that will undergo changes as required. If
you have any recommendations on improving this document, please send your comments to:

SD-2, BUYING COMMERCIAL AND NONDEVELOPMENTAL ITEMS: A HANDBOOK (APR 1996)., This handbook is a guide for acquisition managers and personnel in
other functional areas who are involved in buying commercial and
nondevelopmental items (NDI). It is intended to help you buy these
items without inhibiting your use of creative and innovative
strategies. You should tailor the guidance provided to the
circumstances of your particular acquisitions.
We address the entire spectrum of acquisitions from systems to
items, so you will also need to use sections of this handbook
selectively. For example, the section on market research is generally
applicable to all acquisitions while the chapter on logistics support
is more relevant to system and repairable item acquisitions than
consumable items.
Many acquisition principles are the same for commercial items and
NDI because for both types of items:
· the basic design is set.
· design changes are not controlled by the buyer.
· the maximum use of commercial practices is desired.
However, additional considerations apply when buying commercial
items. Sections in this handbook that apply specifically to
commercial items are so noted.
