Production & Deployment Phase Complete Analysis of Alternatives to assess potential materiel solutions to capability need, identify key

technologies and estimate life cycle costs. Consider commercial- off-the- shelf and solutions from both large and small business. Identify materiel solution to capability need. Complete

Technology Development Strategy.

Reduce technology risk; determine & mature appropriate set of technologies to integrate into full system; demonstrate critical technology elements on prototypes; complete preliminary design. Identify an affordable program or increment of militarily useful capability; demonstrate technology in relevant environment; identify & assess manufacturing risks. Provide for two or more

competing teams producing prototypes of key system elements prior to or through Milestone B.

Achieve operational capability to satisfy mission needs. Deliver systems and supporting material and services for program or increment to users.

Execute support program that meets materiel readiness and operational support performance requirements and sustains system in most cost-effective manner. Overlaps Production and Deployment Phase.

Select Product Support Manager

Develop a system or an increment of capability; complete full system integration; develop an affordable and executable manufacturing process; ensure operational supportability with particular attention to minimizing the logistics footprint; implement human systems integration; design for producibility; ensure affordability; protect CPI by implementing appropriate techniques such as anti-tamper;

and demonstrate system integration, interoperability, safety, and utility. Space systems are required to have acceptable performance in development test activities and acceptable manufacturing risks.
