IMPROVED SYSTEM ENGINERING PROCESS

• ENTER MS-B WITH AN IMMATURE SYSTEM SPECIFICATION

• RESULTS IN LESS INFORMED MILESTONE DECISIONS

• FOSTERS POORLY DEFINED PROGRAM ASSUMPTIONS & BASELINES

• LEADS TO COST / SCHEDULE GROWTH DURING EXECUTION

• OUTPUT OF EACH PHASE MEETS INPUT

CRITERIA FOR GATE REVIEWS • GREATER OPPORTUNITY FOR MATURING

CRITICAL TECHNOLOGIES • ALLOWS FOR COMPETITIVE PRESSURES TO

BETTER OPTIMIZE COST/SCHED/PERFORMANCE

• GREATLY IMPROVED LIKELIHOOD OF MEETING COST/SCHED
