The compares alternatives by estimating their ability to satisfy the identified capability
need through an effectiveness analysis and by estimating their life cycle costs through cost analysis
Analysis of Alternatives
Which of the following requires that us government tariffs be added to purchases of international
products or materials unless an exception (such as public interest) applies or the foreign sourced
items are acquired from a qualifying country with a reciprocal procurement memorandum of
understanding (MOU)
Buy America Statute
Joint Capability Technology Demonstrations (JCTDs) are a special case of Advanced Technology
Demonstrations (ATDs), enhanced so that they can demonstrate the potential to eventually be
fielded and used by operational forces. Additionally, JCTDs are:
Used for both maturing technology and refining operational concepts in the field
Which of the following international acquisition and portability ia&e areas described in the international
considerations section of a program acquisition strategy could have a significant long term impact on
overall program affordability? (Select the three that apply)
Establishing a domestic and international supplier base to support global operations by US and
allied/friendly nation system owners
Coordination with partner and customer nations in the system’s Operations & Support phase logistics
acquisition efforts
International partner and customer nation investment in procurement of system of system product
upgrades
Both the Army and Marine Corps have a capability need to procure additional helicopters beyond the
number specified in the current contract; the helicopter program is currently in production. What cost
estimating technique would the services most likely use as a basis for requesting the funding to pay for
the additional aircraft?
Actual Cost
Program-level exportability studies should be conducted as early as possible in a systems life cycle to
assess the international market for potential cooperative programs, foreign sales, or transfers;
identify the feasibility of designing and developing defense exportability features (DEF) for the
system; and estimate potential return on investment from future international acquisition
partnership and sales efforts.

What element of International Acquisition & Exportability (IA&E) assesses the risks of transferring
controlled technology and information that provide US warfighters a combat advantage as well as the
benefits of international participation?
Technology Security and Foreign Disclosure
The largest distribution of software cost will be in the program’s life
cycle Late
A software-costing model that bases cost estimates upon statistical data such as source line of code is
an example of a costing model.
Parametric
Affordability is most concerned with:
Making tradeoffs in performance and schedule to achieve cost objectives within affordability constraints
Which of the following are characteristics of International Cooperation Programs (ICPs)? (Select the
three that apply.)
Government-to-Government
Shared risks and benefits
Shared Cost
When comparing two alternatives concepts to provide needed warfighting capabilities, you discover
that the total life cycle costs of both are projected to be nearly the same. Alternative 1 relies on
technology that has been successfully demonstrated during Advanced Technology Demonstrations and
can be fielded in 5 years. Alternative 2 relies on technology that is in the basic research stage and can
be fielded in 8 years. Based on the information provided here, which is the better alternative?
Alternative1
What tool does the Program Manager use to define the international considerations that need to be
addressed in the International Involvement section of a program’s Acquisition Strategy?
International Acquisition and Exportability (IA&E) Assessment
During which part of the International Acquisition & Exportability (IA&E) Assessment does the Program
Management Office and Integrated Product Team identify the Technology Security and Foreign
Disclosure *TSFD) technology areas (“pipes”) that are relevant to the program’s future international
acquisition actives?
Program Protection Considerations
As a general rule of thumb of the total ownership cost of a system occur late in the life
cycle, due to costs associated with operations and support
