Requirements Management Training Curriculum Core Plus Executive-Level Core CLM 101 Analysis of Alternatives CLM 041Capabilities-Based Planning RQM 403 Requirements Executive Management Overview CLR 250Capabilities-Based Assessments RQM 110 Core Concepts for Requirements Management Deployed CLR 252 Developing Requirements In development RQM 310 Concepts and Skills In revision

  13. Requirements Competencies • Capabilities-Based Planning (CBP) • Joint Capabilities Integration Development System (JCIDS) • Analysis • Requirements • Communications • Defense Acquisition System (DAS) • Resource Allocation Process (RAP) to include PPBE • Rapid Response • Analysis of Alternatives

  14. RQM 310 – Requirements Management Concepts and Skills • 4.5-day classroom course which takes an in-depth look Into the relationships between the JCIDS, DAS, and PPBE • Student pilot: 21 July 2010 • First offering: 16 August 2010 • Current schedule - 6 classes per year; 30 students per class

  15. Why is RQM 310 a Core Course? • The DAU committed three levels of training to Congress • Requirements training is the only non-acquisition use of 852 funds • Mr. Young issued a policy letter supporting a classroom course • The senior leadership decided to support a classroom course at the 22 April 2009 meeting

  16. RQM 310 Major Topics • Capabilities-Based Analysis (CBAs) • Developing Requirements • Interacting with Program Managers and the rest of the DAS • Rapid Response situations • Staffing and Validation within JCIDS

  19. Our Proposed RQM 310 Class Schedule

  20. Requirements Management Certification TrainingCore Courses Required Training Level Guidelines

  21. Discussion • RQM 310 is on track, current • We are providing training to put the RM on an equal footing with the PM • Closely linked to OSD ATL and Services’ to capture latest changes/nuances to the acquisition process (ex. Energy Efficiency KPP and FBCF development) • FBCF definition standardization • AoA Energy Efficiency Analysis process

  22. BACKUP SLIDES

  23. 2007 NDAA – Section 801 • Section 801 of FY 2007 National Defense Authorization Act • Establish a certification program for DoD personnel responsible for generating requirements for major defense acquisition programs (MDAPs) • Certify by September 30, 2008. • The certification program should address: • Interrelationship between requirements, budget, and acquisition, • Developing joint operations requirements, • Early baselining of program requirements and “the adverse effect” of changing or adding requirements, and • Importance of technology maturity and alternatives.

  24. Reports to Congress • Memo dated 14Apr2008 • Final Report to John McCain and Carl Levin • Discusses the online assets & the Advanced RQM Course (RQM 310) • Thus far, we are meeting our obligations

  25. Final Report Continued

  26. CLM 041 Summary (FY08-FY10) 01 March 2010

  27. RQM110 Summary(FY08-FY10) 15 February 2010

  28. RQM 403 Summary(FY08-FY10) 15 February 2010

  29. CLR 250 – Capabilities-Based Assessments (CBA) • Description:CLR 250 is an online module that examines how to conduct a Capability-Based Assessment (CBA) and to apply the CBA results • Objective:Given sample data and direction, recognize the CBA process and challenges to generate results that impact follow-on JCIDS documents.

  30. CBA Lessons Lesson #1 – CBA Background Lesson #2 – Team Building and Planning Lesson #3 – Study Phases Lesson #4 – Follow-on Documents

  31. CLR 252 – Developing Requirements • Description: CLR 252 is an online module to describe how to develop Key Performance Parameters (KPPs), Key System Attributes (KSAs) and the relationship of the KPPs and KSAs to Measures of Effectiveness (MOEs), Measures of Performance (MOPs), and Measures of Suitability (MOSs). • Objective: Given warfighter feedback and analysis results, critique requirements statements to include well-written KPPs and KSAs; then relate those requirements statements to Measures of Effectiveness (MOEs), Measures of Performance (MOPs), and Measures of Suitability (MOSs)

  32. Requirements Lessons Lesson #1 – Requirements Foundation Lesson #2 – How to Write a Good Requirement Lesson #3 – KPPs, Performance Attributes and Requirements Creep Lesson #4 – Measures of Performance and Requirements Validation

  33. Addressing the Competencies

  34. Competencies and Core Plus

  35. JCIDSSimulation • Description: Simulate a variety of tasks a Requirements Manager needs to resolve as a capability moves through the JCIDS and the DAS • Objective: Given documentation from analysis and from acquisition life-cycle phases, to include Rapid Response situations, apply and defend appropriate solutions in order to get those solutions through the “Big A” Acquisition system • Challenges: • Accurate and current scenario development • Inputs from the working levels • Need for field-level realism

  36. Capstone Briefings • DAU has developed topics that relate developing KPPs to trade-offs and acquisition problems • Test and Evaluation • Technology Readiness • Logistics and Support • Student teams will present briefings: • To DAU faculty for practice • To a simulated FCB

  37. What Does RQM 310 Add? • Puts CBA development and results in context • Examines how to develop and apply top-level requirements • Uses multiple approaches to explore how to work with DAS and the rest of “Big A” acquisition • Includes discussion about Rapid Response which leads into the avatar simulation • The avatar simulation includes Staffing and Validation challenges

  38. Deployment Schedule
