Systems Engineering - ANSWERS comprises a methodical and disciplined
approach for the specification, design, development, realization, technical
management, operations, and retirement of a system.
Engineering processes - ANSWERS apply critical thinking in a structured multi-
disciplined approach to solve problems, including the balance of cost, schedule,
and performance while maintaining an acceptable level of risk.
System - ANSWERS is an aggregation of system elements and enabling system
elements that achieves a given purpose or provides a needed capability.
System Element - ANSWERS include configuration items, subsystems,
segments, components, assemblies, and parts.
Enabling System Elements - ANSWERS provide the means for delivering a
capability into service, keeping it in service, or ending its service, and may include
those processes or products necessary for developing, producing, testing,
deploying, and sustaining the system. may include but is not limited to hardware,
software, people, data, processes, facilities, and tools.
Standard - ANSWERS Establishes uniform engineering or technical criteria,
methods, processes, and practices. (MIL-STD-962)
,Specification - ANSWERS Describes essential technical requirements for
materiel and the criteria for determining whether those requirements are met.
(MIL-STD-961)
S&T - ANSWERS Transitions technological developments for use by operational
forces
Demonstrates new and emerging technologies that have a direct application to
military systems
Evaluates technologies that are intended to be implemented into future military
systems to provide a sound basis for acquisition decisions
T&E - ANSWERS Compares a system or components against requirements and
specifications through testing. The results are evaluated to assess progress of
design, performance, and supportability.
Life Cycle Logistics - ANSWERS is a multifunctional, technical management
discipline associated with the entire life cycle of a system. The principal objectives
are to ensure that: Support considerations are an integral part of the system's
design requirements so that the system can be cost-effectively supported
throughout its life cycle
Infrastructure elements necessary for the initial fielding and operational support
of the system are identified, developed, and acquired
Production, Quality, and Manufacturing (PQM) - ANSWERS The goal of this is
to ensure the producibility of the system design; meaning, the relative ease of
manufacturing an item or system. Designing for producibility reduces both
schedule and cost risks.
, Hardware/Software Engineering - ANSWERS The application of a systematic,
disciplined, quantifiable approach to the development, operation, and
maintenance of hardware and software.
Cybersecurity Sys Engring - ANSWERS encompasses all of the necessary
actions taken to ensure the Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability (CIA) of
system information to enable warfighting operations.
FFRDC - ANSWERS is an activity sponsored under a broad charter by a
Government agency (or agencies) for the purpose of performing, analyzing,
integrating, supporting, and managing basic or applied research and/or
development.
70% - ANSWERS An FFRDC must meet criteria: a. receive [what %?] or more of
its financial support from the government, b. A long-term relationship is
contemplated, c. have most or all of its facilities owned or funded by the
government, and d. have access to government and supplier data, employees, and
facilities beyond that common in a normal contractual relationship.
1. Sys Engr and Integration Centers
2. Study and Analysis Centers
3. R&D Centers (includes national labs) - ANSWERS FFRDCs are grouped into
three categories. what are they?
No - ANSWERS Do FFRDCs have a profit motive or conflicts of interest?
Government customer - ANSWERS Who do FFRDCs answer to?
