  6. Production & Deployment Operations & Support SD&D Acquisition Process: XR Role Dual Role- BOTH Acquisition & Integrated Staff AAC EXAMPLE: Program Initiation FOC IOC A B C Requirement Generation Concept Refinement Technology Development Overlap Overlap Pre-Systems Acquisition System Acq Sustainment • AAC/XR : • Initial Program Cadres • Quick Reaction Pgms • Helps Guide AFRL Investment ALCs

  7. Developmental Planning AOR • JCIDS • I-CRRA Support • Pre-Milestone A • Guide Investment Decisions • Pre-Milestone B • Launch High Confidence Programs Concept Development Tech Transition Program Development Analysis

  8. Capability/Requirement Awareness • AAC/XR Reviews: • Annual Planning and Programming Guidance • Bi-Annual CRRA report(s) • COCOM Integrated Priority Lists • Air Force CONOPs & Scenarios • JCIDS documents • Quadrennial Defense Review • AAC/XR Maintains: • Dialogue with MAJCOMs/COCOMs • Awareness of Emerging Threats

  9. Technology Awareness • Interchanges with the S&T Community • Technical Conferences, Symposia, Workshops • Industry Dialogue (IRAD reviews, Site Visits, RFIs) • Media (Publications, Journals, Broadcasts, Internet) • Insensitive Munitions Strategic Plan • Small Business Innovative Research • Support PEO/TEO Reviews • Support Hunter-Gatherer Process • Research Programs (Industry, Laboratory) “linked” to XR/308th Capability Needs • Provides Better Alignment of R&D to Documented Capability Needs • Monitor Industrial Base Assessment

  10. Concept Development • Maintain munitions database • Existing Weapons • Spiral Developments • Emerging technologies/concepts • Annual Weapons File • Participate In/Support MAJCOM AoAs • Advisors to MAJCOMs/COCOMs/Air Staff • Advisors to Industry • Sponsor Trade Studies

  11. Analysis • Modeling and Simulation of New Concepts • Identify Potential “Game Changers” • Identify/Develop/Maintain Tools for Quick Analysis: • Effects => Capability => Attribute • Real time/Reactive/Rigorous • Optimize Across the Entire Kill Chain • FSA & AoA Support

  12. Program Development at AAC • Support Potential New Start POM Builds • Develop JCTD Candidate Submissions • Mature Promising Concepts • Risk Reduction • System of Systems Definition • Prototype Development • Environmental Characterization

  13. USD(AT&L) Policy Letter, 19 Sep 07Prototyping and Competition “…all acquisition strategies requiring USD(AT&L) approval must be formulated to include competitive, technically mature prototyping through MS B.” “The Department needs to discover issues before the costly System Design and Development (SDD) phase. During SDD, large teams should be producing detailed manufacturing designs—not solving myriad technical issues.”

  14. AAC Integrated Assessment Tools Technology Readiness Assessment Cost Sufficiency Review Systems Engineering Assessment Sufficiency Review Logistics Health Assessment (LHA) Probability of Program Success (PoPS) Manufacturing Readiness Assessment

  15. Program Development Process • Form an IPT (members as applicable) • Program Management, Cost analyst/cost engineer, ACE, Warfighter, Developmental Test, Systems Engineering, Research Lab, AFOTEC, SEEK EAGLE, US Army/US Navy, Subject matter experts (SMEs) • Define the Concept/Determine requirements • Technology Readiness Assessment • Manufacturing Readiness Assessment • Logistics Health Assessment • Draft Acquisition Strategy • Develop the Test/Test Asset Matrix • Develop the Program Acquisition Schedule • Risk Assessment • Systems Engineering Assessment (SEA) • Probability of Program Success (PoPS) Assessment • Develop Cost Estimate • Cost Sufficiency Review • Sufficiency Review

  16. Key Initiatives • Eglin Steel Producibility Enhancement (ESPE) • Advanced Penetrators • Active Denial System (ADS) • Counter-Electronics High Power Microwave (CE-HPM) • BRU-69/AMulti-Purpose Bomb Rack (MPBR)
