# 10 U.S.C. § 4402 - Requirement to address modular open system approach in program capabilities development and acquisition weapon system design
|
||||
|
||||
## Text
|
||||
|
||||
(a) Program Capability Document.— A program capability document for a major defense acquisition program shall identify and characterize—
|
||||
|
||||
(1) the extent to which requirements for system performance are likely to evolve during the life cycle of the system because of evolving technology, threat, or interoperability needs; and
|
||||
|
||||
(2) for requirements that are expected to evolve, the minimum acceptable capability that is necessary for initial operating capability of the major defense acquisition program.
|
||||
|
||||
(b) Analysis of Alternatives.— The Director of Cost Assessment and Performance Evaluation, in formulating study guidance for analyses of alternatives for major defense acquisition programs and performing such analyses under section 139a(d)(4) of this title, shall ensure that any such analysis for a major defense acquisition program includes consideration of evolutionary acquisition, prototyping, and a modular open system approach.
|
||||
|
||||
(c) Acquisition Strategy.— In the case of a major defense acquisition program that uses a modular open system approach, the acquisition strategy required under section 4211 of this title shall—
|
||||
|
||||
(1) clearly describe the modular open system approach to be used for the program;
|
||||
|
||||
(2) differentiate between the major system platform and major system components being developed under the program, as well as major system components developed outside the program that will be integrated into the major defense acquisition program;
|
||||
|
||||
(3) clearly describe the evolution of major system components that are anticipated to be added, removed, or replaced in subsequent increments;
|
||||
|
||||
(4) identify additional major system components that may be added later in the life cycle of the major system platform;
|
||||
|
||||
(5) clearly describe how intellectual property and related issues, such as technical data deliverables, that are necessary to support a modular open system approach, will be addressed; and
|
||||
|
||||
(6) clearly describe the approach to systems integration and systems-level configuration management to ensure mission and information assurance.
|
||||
|
||||
(d) Request for Proposals.— The milestone decision authority for a major defense acquisition program that uses a modular open system approach shall ensure that a request for proposals for the development or production phases of the program shall describe the modular open system approach and the minimum set of major system components that must be included in the design of the major defense acquisition program.
|
||||
|
||||
(e) Milestone B.— A major defense acquisition program may not receive Milestone B approval under section 4252 of this title until the milestone decision authority determines in writing—
|
||||
|
||||
(1) in the case of a program that uses a modular open system approach, that—
|
||||
|
||||
(A) the program incorporates clearly defined major system interfaces between the major system platform and major system components, between major system components, and between major system platforms;
|
||||
|
||||
(B) such major system interfaces are consistent with the the 11 So in original. requirements of section 4401(a) of this title; and
|
||||
|
||||
(C) the Government has arranged to obtain appropriate and necessary intellectual property rights with respect to such major system interfaces upon completion of the development of the major system platform; or
|
||||
|
||||
(2) in the case of a program that does not use a modular open system approach, that the use of a modular open system approach is not practicable.
|
||||
|
||||
(f) Implementation Guidance.— The Secretaries of the military departments shall issue guidance to implement the requirements of this section.
|
||||
|
||||

# 10 U.S.C. § 4422 - Weapon system component or technology prototype projects: oversight
|
||||
|
||||
## Text
|
||||
|
||||
(a) Establishment.— The Secretary of each military department shall establish an oversight board or identify a similar existing group of senior advisors for managing prototype projects for weapon system components and other technologies and subsystems, including the use of funds for such projects, within the military department concerned.
|
||||
|
||||
(b) Membership.— Each oversight board shall be comprised of senior officials with—
|
||||
|
||||
(1) expertise in requirements; research, development, test, and evaluation; acquisition; sustainment; or other relevant areas within the military department concerned;
|
||||
|
||||
(2) awareness of technology development activities and opportunities in the Department of Defense, industry, and other sources; and
|
||||
|
||||
(3) awareness of the component capability requirements of major weapon systems, including scheduling and fielding goals for such component capabilities.
|
||||
|
||||
(c) Functions.— The functions of each oversight board are as follows:
|
||||
|
||||
(1) To issue a strategic plan every three years that prioritizes the capability and weapon system component portfolio areas for conducting prototype projects, based on assessments of—
|
||||
|
||||
(A) high priority warfighter needs;
|
||||
|
||||
(B) capability gaps or readiness issues with major weapon systems;
|
||||
|
||||

# 10 U.S.C. § 4424 - Mechanisms to speed deployment of successful weapon system component or technology prototypes
|
||||
|
||||
## Text
|
||||
|
||||
(a) Selection of Prototype Project for Production and Rapid Fielding.— A weapon system component or technology prototype project may be selected by the service acquisition executive of the military department concerned for a follow-on production contract or other transaction without the use of competitive procedures, notwithstanding the requirements of sections 3201 through 3205 of this title, if—
|
||||
|
||||
(1) the follow-on production project addresses a high priority warfighter need or reduces the costs of a weapon system;
|
||||
|
||||
(2) competitive procedures were used for the selection of parties for participation in the original prototype project;
|
||||
|
||||
(3) the participants in the original prototype project successfully completed the requirements of the project; and
|
||||
|
||||
(4) a prototype of the system to be procured was demonstrated in a relevant environment.
|
||||
|
||||
(b) Special Transfer Authority.— (1) The Secretary of a military department may, as specified in advance by appropriations Acts, transfer funds that remain available for obligation in procurement appropriation accounts of the military department to fund the low-rate initial production of the rapid fielding project until required funding for full-rate production can be submitted and approved through the regular budget process of the Department of Defense.
|
||||
|
||||
(2) The funds transferred under this subsection to fund the low-rate initial production of a rapid fielding project shall be for a period not to exceed two years, the amount for such period may not exceed $50,000,000, and the special transfer authority provided in this subsection may not be used more than once to fund procurement of a particular new or upgraded system.
|
||||
|
||||
(3) The special transfer authority provided in this subsection is in addition to any other transfer authority available to the Department of Defense.
|
||||
|
||||
(c) Notification to Congress.— Within 30 days after the service acquisition executive of a military department selects a weapon system component or technology project for a follow-on production contract or other transaction, the service acquisition executive shall notify the congressional defense committees of the selection and provide a brief description of the rapid fielding project.
