MDA Status FY 2002- FY 2004

• Prior to MDA, in the Ballistic Missile Defense Organization (BMDO), individual elements were essentially independent “stovepipe” systems

• MDA stood up 2 Jan 02 with implementation guidelines to develop a single integrated system

• Initial MDA focus was development of BMDS Test Bed

• President briefed in Aug 02 on proposed evolutionary missile defense plan

• No mid and long-range capability existed in Jun 04

• MDA focus: fielding of an initial capability

Direction for MDA’s Use Of Capability-Based Acquisition

•January 2002 – SecDef Missile Defense Program Direction

- Establish a single program to develop an integrated system under a newly titled Missile Defense Agency

- Apply a capability-based requirements process for missile defense

•GMD, Aegis BMD, ABL, THAAD, SBIRS-Low / STSS, PAC-3 transferred from Services to MDA

- Operational Requirements Documents (ORDs) were cancelled (except PAC -3)

- Capability-based acquisition applied

“r”equirements ProcessEvolves Over Past Five Years

• Replaced Traditional, Cold War Model Defining Specific Threats

- Mission area approach (“System” = Ballistic Missile Defense System)- Physics-based definition of potential capability of offensive missiles

• Initial Capability Standards- BMDS specification (initially derived from elements)

• User Participation (STRATCOM Engagement)- First PCL in 2006, updated in 2007- Warfighter Involvement Process (WIP)- Service interaction (BoDs, Liaison Groups, etc)

• Capability Trades- Focused initially on near term vs. long term- All components in play now to optimize entire BMDS “portfolio”- Focus on Capabilities that can be delivered (near term and evolution

for long term)

Why Capability-Based Acquisition

• Cannot predict with certainty what nation(s) or non-state actors will pose threats to U.S. interests or those of our allies and friends

• Need a flexible strategy to exploit technological opportunities and place capability “in play” sooner

• Focus is on adding capabilities with demonstrated military utility, rather than meeting requirements often defined years earlier

• Harmonize capability “requirements” with balance “in the check book”

Capability-Based Acquisition ManagementTraditional Threat-Based Acquisition

Vs. Capability-Based Acquisition

Threat-Based Capability-Based

• Assumes accurate knowledge of future threat

• Up-front acknowledgement that specifics of future threat are unknown, but general characteristics are

• Relies on often optimistic promises of performance, cost and schedule that’s “achievable”

• Emphasizes useful existing technology over a more results-based approach

• User views requirement as one opportunity to get the ideal system

• Willingness to accept early military utility through expanded continuous spiral development

• Fiscally trades are often outside the program

• Fiscal trades are within our portfolio

• Once approved, the program is virtually unstoppable

• Incremental commitments

Some Implications of Capability-Based Approach

•Robust technology investment- Aimed at filling gaps - Carried to higher maturity level (TRL 6 or 7) before

entering development- Solid strategy for transition to development

•Spiral development - Event-based improvements- Open architectures, modular designs - Low risk and short developments

•Demands stronger Govt skills- Assessing technical maturity and risk- Proposal cost and schedule realism- Life cycle cost estimating

17

Knowledge Points - Why

• Problems occur because development programs do not capture early-on the requisite knowledge that is needed to effectively manage risks and make decisions

• Programs frequently disappoint- Unrealistic cost and schedule estimates- Ill-defined and unstable requirements- Immature technologies- Constantly changing design & manufacturing processes- Such lengthy development times that better investment

opportunities often emerge• As a result, programs require more resources and time

than planned

Knowledge Points are Our Hedge Against these RisksKnowledge Points are Our Hedge Against these Risks

Knowledge Points – What They Are

• Knowledge Point defined- A preplanned event after which the decision-maker knows information for

making key decisions

• Unique to each program: Critical risks- Decision-maker decides what the knowledge points are- Data from knowledge points drives key decisions

– Incremental financial commitments to a program– Schedule adjustments– Performance requirements– Program Continuation– Alternative or back-up path

- Each added commitment to a program hinges on knowledge gained (confidence) about critical risks

- Event-based: tests and demos based upon risks or known problems– Routine tests or demos are not Knowledge Points

Missing a KP Means theViability of the Capability is in Jeopardy

•Possible Outcomes of not Attaining a KP Might Include Technology remains promising, so alter approach

- Reallocate resources to scale back activity and concentrate on a particular aspect of the program

- Cancel the program- Choose a new solution to address the requirement,

i.e., cancel the program- Continue the program with caution- Changes in Personnel- …..

Example of MDA Knowledge Points

• Airborne Laser

- Knowledge Points Achieved– Demonstrated the ability to laze at significant power level

and duration– Demonstrated that laser energy could be directed from

an airborne platform

- Outcomes – Achievement gave us confidence to designate ABL as

primary boost capability– Delayed substantial investment until another major KP

met: shooting down a ballistic missile in FY09– Based on remaining risks, continued to carry Kinetic

Energy Interceptors as a hedge

Example of MDA Knowledge Points

• Kinetic Energy Interceptors

- Knowledge Points– Demonstrated accuracy and timeliness of the

overhead imagery data to the fire control assets (2006)– Demonstrate required high acceleration boost rates

through a flight test (2008)

- Outcomes planned in FY09 – Whether or not to continue the program, and– If continued, at what pace

Notional Knowledge Point Examples

•Example A: Affordability uncertainty- Seeker component

– Seeker prototype provides confidence of added capability– Low yields fail to give confidence of affordable manufacture

- Approach: We structure an affordability knowledge point before we begin the development spiral

•Example B: Test failures- Series of test failures show quality and workmanship issues in

hardware manufacturing process- Contractor takes corrective actions, but we lack confidence in fix- Approach: We set up random hardware pedigree reviews and

surprise manufacturing audits to gain data to give us confidence before we move forward with testing

Notional Knowledge Point Examples (cont’d)

• Example C: Technology Maturity- Space-based interceptor (boost phase)

– Requires light weight propulsion– Pump propulsion from Livermore shows promise

- Approach: We build a prototype flight weight KV and verify performance before beginning development

• Example D: Political Risk- NATO countries are stakeholders in European GBI site

– Collateral damage (debris, spent booster)– CONOPs– Defended areas

- Approach: We reach a tentative agreement with NATO on CONOPs and other pertinent matters before we begin construction in host country

TRANSITION TO OPERATIONS

• Early Capability- Operations entry point for new, immature components/capabilities - Lowest level of confidence, contingency/emergency ops only

• Partial Capability- Medium level of confidence, based on tests & analyses- Aggregation of previous early capabilities- Risks identified and evaluated- Logistics support adequate to support operations- Support warfighter PMC decision

• Full Capability- Highest level of confidence, sufficient BMDS-level tests- Aggregation of previous capability decisions (“partial(s)” and

“early(s)”)- Sufficient performance/logistics for sustained defensive ops- Support warfighter FMC decision

Transition and Transfer Spectrum Ranges

• Transition*: During the development phase, particularly when a component is deployed under contingency fielding, or emergency fielding conditions the Lead Military Department is responsible for providing for operation and support. Physical possession of BMD mission equipment is retained by MDA until the program office transfers

• Transfer*: Conveying the possession of an item or responsibility from one entity to another. Transfer includes the roles and responsibilities for procurement, operations, support, and sustainment
