Defense Acquisition Categories Defense Acquisition U professor Matt Ambrose provides a top-level description of Acquisition Categories (ACATs) used in the U.S. Department of Defense and the role such categories play in the management of acquisition programs. Ambrose also discusses the differences between weapon system and automated information system categories and provides an explanation of what makes a system a Major Defense Acquisition Program (MDAP) or a Major Automated Information System (MAIS). The DoDI 5000.02 and Milestone Documentation Identification tool (MDID) are referred to for further exploration of the topic and practical application.

Analysis

SERC TALKS: “’Mission Engineering’: Systems of Systems Engineering in Context” For more information on this Talk and others, please visit: http://sercuarc.org/serc-talks/ Presented on August 5, 2020 at 1PM ET by Dr. Judith Dahmann, Technical Fellow, The MITRE Corporation ABSTRACT: Today most organizational or societal capabilities rely on a mix of material and non-material ‘systems’ working together to achieve desired outcomes – to achieve their ‘mission’. Organizations typically define mission statements about why they exist – their “reason for being” -- and they use these mission statements as the basis for planning actions and investments. Government or religious organizations often form ‘mission’ teams to achieve a set of goals to share ideas or conduct negotiations. Space and defense organizations commonly refer to planned actions to achieve objectives as their ‘missions’ - e.g. US NASA Apollo mission to the moon. In most cases these include a set of objectives and a plan of actions to achieve these objectives. Recently US Defense has started to apply systems engineering concepts and practices to missions in what is being termed ‘Mission Engineering” - the deliberate planning, analyzing, organizing, and integrating of current and emerging operational and system capabilities to achieve desired mission effects. In this presentation Dr. Dahmann will discuss the motivation for employing systems approaches to mission capabilities as an extension and a broader context for application of systems of systems engineering. BIO: Dr. Judith Dahmann is a Technical Fellow at the MITRE Corporation Center and the capability lead for Systems of Systems (SoS). Dr. Dahmann is the MITRE project leader for SE Technical Support to OUSD R&E supporting mission engineering (ME) activities and the application of digital engineering to ME. She was the technical lead for development of the DoD guide for systems engineering of systems of systems (SoS) and the project lead for ISO 21839, a international standard on ‘SoS Considerations Throughout the System Life Cycle’. Dr. Dahmann is also the task lead for a set of Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) SoS programs investigating advanced technology approaches to complex SoS challenges. Dr. Dahmann is an INCOSE Fellow and the co-chair of the INCOSE Systems of Systems Working Group and the co-chair of the NDIA SE Division SoS Committee. She teaches Enterprise SE as an adjunct faculty member of the Johns Hopkins University in the Systems Engineering Program for Engineering Professionals.

How to create a capability model Raj Ramesh The capability model is one of the foundational models to understand the capabilities of the enterprise. It is often used as the basis of other analyses such as process analysis, spend analysis, prioritization of work, etc. So it behooves the enterprise to create and have one capability model that is common for the whole enterprise. How do you start this exercise? In this video, I explain precisely that. Background Music attribution:: Across the Room - YouTube - Letter Box Here's what I can do to help you. I speak on the topics of architecture and AI, help you integrate AI into your organization, educate your team on what AI can or cannot do, and make things simple enough that you can take action from your new knowledge. I work with your organization to understand the nuances and challenges that you face, and together we can understand, frame, analyze, and address challenges in a systematic way so you see improvement in your overall business, is aligned with your strategy, and most importantly, you and your organization can incrementally change to transform and thrive in the future. If any of this sounds like something you might need, please reach out to me at dr.raj.ramesh@topsigma.com, and we'll get back in touch within a day.

Graphs in Government: Achieving Total Cost Visibility for the U.S. Army Maximizing cost visibility is a common goal for large organizations, including the United States Department of Defense. The United States Army is required to track operating and support costs for weapon systems including weapons definition, force structure, inventory, requisitions, maintenance, ammunition and more. That equates to a vast amount of data and growing data management complexities. To address these challenges and achieve total cost visibility, the Army adopted the Neo4j graph database to create, manage, and analyze data relationships across the logistics community. In this webinar, Jason Zagalsky, Federal Account Manager at Neo4j, will provide a brief overview of Neo4j and Graphs In Government, followed by Preston Hendrickson, Principal Systems Analyst at CALIBRE Systems, describing how modernizing its cost tracking system gave the Army the cost visibility needed to meet DoD objectives

Resolving America’s Defense Strategy-Resource Mismatch: The Case for Cost-Per-Effect Analysis The Mitchell Institute for Aerospace Studies Read the report here: https://bit.ly/31WPlha Slides from presentation available here: http://bit.ly/31Unb6x To support and see more of this content, like this video and subscribe to the Mitchell Institute’s channel. The Mitchell Institute for Aerospace Studies held a live virtual rollout of its latest report Resolving America’s Defense Strategy-Resource Mismatch: The Case for Cost-Per-Effect Analysis by Lt Gen (Ret) David A. Deptula, Dean of the Mitchell Institute, and Douglas A. Birkey, Executive Director of the Mitchell Institute. The two authors hosted a panel discussion on the need to adopt cost-per-effect assessments across the Department of Defense as the preferred measure of merit in evaluating weapon system choices. They were joined on the panel by Dr. Bill LaPlante, Senior VP and General Manager for MITRE Corporation's National Security Sector, and Brig Gen David Harris, Director of the Air Force Warfighting Integration Capability (AFWIC) and Deputy Chief of Staff for Strategy, Integration, and Requirements.
