Cost and Affordability approach at Development Planning stage
Significant Technical Issues Pre-MS A A Engineering Analysis Analysis of Alternatives MDD ASR Strategic Guidance Joint Concepts Materiel Solution Analysis Technology Development CBA ICD NDIA SE Division Meeting February 17, 2010 Mr. Michael Duffey Deputy Director, Development Planning Office of the Director for Systems Analysis
Affordability analysis: Analysis can focus on the subsystem, system, and mission levels and is performed for the entire program life cycle. Typical products of an affordability analysis include cost-effectiveness analyses, risk analyses, and total ownership cost estimates. An affordability analysis synthesizes information from three basic areas: mission analysis, technical analysis, and cost analysis.” Affordability Analysis for DARPA Programs, William M. Kroshl and Peter P. Pandolfini Johns Hopkins APL Technical Digest
Mission – Value Framework (KPP - MOE - TPM) Completed Operational Context Iterative Cycle Missions, Cost Analysis Scenarios, & Capabilities Needed Risk Analysis Performance Trade - Off Architecture Analysis Analysis (PBS – Tech Baseline Yes Best Value Schedule Analysis No Modify Baseline Analyze Issues Affordability Process:
System Cost Drivers: • Project Management • Assembly • System Components : H/W, S/W, IT and others Production Development O&S
Project Management: Systems Engineering on a project • Project Initiation and Planning • Project Management and Control • Quality Assurance Management • Configuration Management • Vendor Management • Documentation Systems Engineering e.g. is consumed by these activities
Project Management Cost Drivers: • Operating Specification • Multiple Site Development • Vendor Interface Complexity • Project Complexity factor • # of Requirements • Requirement Stability • # of Interfaces • # of Vendors • # of Operational Scenarios • Quantities / Schedule
Assembly cost Drivers • Hardware External Integration Complexity • Engineering Complexity • Development Engineering for Structure • Development Engineering for Electronics • Software External Integration • Hardware Platform Stability • Hardware Platform Availability • Number of Unique Hardware Platforms • System Complexity

Cost Uncertainty Variance Analysis on Regression
Schedule Analysis: • Estimated schedule : derived from effort estimates • Schedule compression and expansion effects • Schedule Uncertainty • Acceptable levels of uncertainty (cost, schedule and cost & schedule) at different phases
What is expected from Systems Engineering on Cost and Affordability at Development Planning? • Trade studies? • Material trades • Design trades • Country of manufacturing
Value Proposition: • Cost is only one side of coin, other side is benefits • Benefits consideration to include KPPs
