– Completed software for a "system"– Inception, Elaboration, Construction, mini-Transition

Single Semester– System "Feasibility" demonstration– COTS assessment and recommendation– Inception and Elaboration (for later "implementation”

Second Semester (possibly delayed)– Completed software for a "system"– Re-baselined Elaboration, Construction, mini-Transition

Third Semester– Enhancement (more functionality) IECT– Full Transition

RDCR ARB in Projects with Big ChangesRDCR ARB Session Outline

(x,y): (presentation time, total time)

(2, 2) What ARB outline are you following and why

(5, 5) OCD. System purpose; changes in current system and deficiencies, proposed new system, system boundary, and desired capabilities and goals; top-level scenarios

(5,10) Prototype Update. Changes in significant capabilities (especially those with high risk if gotten wrong)

(5, 10) SSRD. ALL high priority or changes in requirements; rating for all others

(10, 15) Architecture. Overall and detailed architecture; design if critical; COTS/reuse selections (NOT JUST CHOICES)

(10, 15) Life Cycle Plan. Focus on 577b (no history) or ? as appropriate; Include QMP and plans for CTS initial cycle “Plans” during 2nd Elab. Iter.

Team members’ roles & responsibilities in 577b.

(5, 10) Feasibility Rationale. Refined business case; major risks; general discussion

(5, 10) Things done right; issues to address (IV&V)

(5, 5) Feedback from Instructors

• Plan on 2 minutes per briefing chart, except title

• Focus on changes (particularly new things) since LCO

• You may vary from the above: please notify ARB board members IN ADVANCE
