Refine initial concept. Develop Technology
Development Strategy
Reduce technology risk and determine appropriate set of
technologies to integrate into a full system.
Develop a system or increment of capability; reduce integration and manufacturing risk; ensure operational supportability;
reduce logistics footprint; implement human systems integration; design for producibility; ensure affordability and protection of
critical program information; and demonstrate system integration, interoperability, safety, and utility.
Achieve operational capability that satisfies
mission needs.
Execute a support program that meets operational support performance requirements and
sustains the system in the most cost-effective manner over its total life cycle. Dispose of the
system in the most cost-effective manner at the end of its useful life.

This chart is a classroom aid for Defense Acquisition University students. It provides a notional illustration of the
interfaces among the three major decision support systems used to develop, produce, and field a system for national
defense. Defense acquisition is a complex process with many more activities than shown here, and many concurrent
activities that cannot be properly displayed on a two-dimensional chart. Supporting information is on the back of this
chart. For more information see the Acquisition, Technology & Logistics Knowledge Sharing System (http://akss.dau.mil).
