| 1. |
The design is low risk from the
standpoint of producibility.
|
| 2. |
Design change activity has stabilized at a low
level.
|
|
| a. |
Validation demonstration of the
design has been accomplished including qualification of
subsystems and components as appropriate, and demonstration of
performance and R&M
characteristics.
|
| b. |
Incomplete portions of the design
are identified and do not introduce significant risks to
production.
|
| c. |
A system configuration audit has
been accomplished and discrepancies resolved.
|
| d. |
The design is in consonance with
the operational, maintenance and support concepts, including
meeting interservice and foreign interoperability
requirements.
| |
| 3. |
The technical data package will permit
competitive acquisition and domestic and foreign coproduction,
where appropriate.
|
| 4. |
Standardization has been accomplished in
the design to optimize economies derived from the use of standard
components, parts, materials, and processes.
|
| 5. |
Critical and scarce materials are used
only where dictated by required performance, and such use is
compatible with established DoD priorities and
allocations.
|
| 6. |
Alternates for critical materials or
processes are identified in the design.
|
| 7. |
Production cost projections have been
made and well supported.
|
| 8. |
Metric design has been used where it
enhances cost effectiveness standardization, supportability, or
interoperability. |
