4.2. Systems Engineering Activities in the Life Cycle
4.2. Systems Engineering Activities in the Life Cycle
This section is split into two major areas.
- DAG sections 4.2.1 – 4.2.7 provide introductory material and describe the Systems Engineer’s role in each phase of the weapon system acquisition life cycle. The notional technical reviews and audits in each phase are identified, but the details are left for the second major area of 4.2.
- DAG section 4.2.8 provides an overview of technical reviews and audits, followed by DAG sections 4.2.9 – 4.2.17 which address each specific technical review and audit. This arrangement accommodates the planning and conducting of the technical reviews and audits in accordance with a program’s specific needs. Some large and complex programs may require each technical review and audit; others may combine technical reviews and audits or get permission to tailor them out.
