The template is envisioned to be used by Industry to train new CM practitioners on what CM things to do in what order, and by Government personnel
4、 to assess individual program CM achievement compared to an Industry-agreed upon time-phased template. Think of this template as another “tool” in the CM practitioners toolbox. The format of the resulting template naturally transitioned to a table to most efficiently convey the information. A listin
5、g of the acronyms used is provided. The information conveyed by the Bulletin is provided for GUIDANCE. It is organized by the DoDI 5000 series acquisition phases of Concept Refinement, Technology Development, System Development and in some cases specifically lists acquisition milestones such as SDD
6、Contract Award. The order of the information should be understood to be Top-Down in sequence, with not every activity applicable to every contract or situation depicted. Note: This first iteration is focused on a US military contract environment, with subsequent updates to consider adding detail app
7、ropriate for commercial, other US government (NASA or FAA) and/or other functional areas (e.g., Data Management and Systems Engineering). What is Configuration Management? Configuration Management (CM) is a process for establishing, controlling and maintaining consistency of a products functional, p
8、erformance, and physical attributes; with its requirements, design and operational information throughout the products life cycle. A primary objective of CM is to assure that a product performs as intended; and its physical attributes are adequately identified and documented to a level of detail suf
9、ficient to repeatably produce the product, and meet anticipated needs for operation, quality management, maintenance, repair, and replacement. The CM process explicitly facilitates orderly management of product change (e.g., extend capability, improve performance/reliability/ maintainability, extend
10、 service life, reduce cost, and correct defects). CM also involves the recording and reporting of configuration information to assist in the support and maintenance of delivered products. The relative cost of implementing CM is normally offset many times over in cost avoidance. See EIA-STD-649A and
11、its Handbook for more details on CM. 1 Copyright Government Electronics with the “when” of CM correlated to DoD acquisition phases and milestones thereby giving a time-phased depiction. The document spreadsheet should be read from top to bottom. It shows both the CM activities and products that shou
12、ld be performed and accomplished on a program or project. Next it provides a brief description of the CM activity or product and a column providing a reference(s) to other sources of information to learn even more about how the activity or product should be accomplished. Also included is a column fo
13、r suggested level of CM control to be applied to the activity/product, from an Industry perspective. Future iterations will include a more complete dataset covering columns for entry criteria, exit criteria and related products from other skillcodes/disciplines. This Bulletin also has future conside
14、rations for a couple of specific examples regarding how to use the document (i.e., a day in the life), from start to finish, assuming different CM user skill levels are involved.
