ACQ 202 Mod 3 Part 3 Test 1) The Resource Management Decision (RMD) is used to adjust the , which translates programming decisions into budgeting decisions. [Identify the key ev ents in the budgeting ... phase, including the preparation, review and decision process associated with the three major documents of the phase: Budget Estimate Submission (BES), Resource Management Decision (RMD), and Reclamas.] Budget Estimate Submission (BES) Acquisition Program Baseline (APB) Defense Planning Guidance (DPG) Capability Development Document (CDD) 2) The first step in developing a Performance Measurement Baseline (PMB) is to: [Identify the steps in the development of the initial Performance Measurement Baseline (PMB).] Define or scope all work Budget the work Schedule the work Prepare the Integrated Program Management Report (IPMR) 3) The Integrated Program Management Report has seven formats. Which one of the formats reports the history of the current status and any actions being taken to address problems that have arisen? [Identify the purpose and content of the Integrated Program Management Report (IPMR).] Format 5 Format 1 Format 2 Format 3 Format 4 4) The Navy awards a Cost-Plus-Award-Fee (CPAF) contract for $265 million to design and develop electronic components for a communications system with a period of performance of 18 months. What reports, if any, must the Navy Program Manager (PM) require the contractor to provide regarding their cost, schedule, and technical performance? [Identify performance report tailoring considerations and their effect on reporting.] The contractor would submit an Integrated Program Management Report (IPMR) formats 1 through 7. The contractor would submit either an Integrated Program Management Report (IPMR) with formats 1 through 5 or an Integrated Program Management Report with format 6, but not both. The contractor would submit an Integrated Program Management Report (IPMR) with format 1 only. The contractor would submit an Integrated Program Management Report (IPMR) with formats 1 through 5 only. The contractor would not be required to submit any earned value related reports to the Program Management Office. Poor definition of requirements Active user involvement in the development process Dependency on metrics to track progress Rises in inflation rates 6) Which of the following best describes the differences between the "incremental" and "waterfall" development models? [Given a software-intensive system (such as a telecommunications or guidance system), select an appropriate software development methodology.] The "incremental" model follows an evolutionary approach, where the "waterfall" model builds the entire system all at once. The "incremental" model requires the program design to be completed before coding, where the "waterfall" model allows development phases to overlap. The "waterfall" model is flexible to changes in capability needs, where the "incremental" model is not. The "waterfall" model does not emphasize baselines, where the "incremental" model does emphasize baselines. 7) Productivity, rework, and technology impact are examples of which kind of software metric? [Using DoD Practical Software Measurement methodology principles, select appropriate software measures to make sound decisions regarding acquisition of software intensive systems.] Proces s Resource allocation Manageme nt Qualit y 8) Every commercial item must undergo the same Governmental testing as a newly developed item before it is acquired for use by the Department of Defense. [Identify key issues regarding Test and Evaluation (T&E) of commercial and non- developmental (NDI) items.] Fals e True to detect deficiencies that may impact performance, availability, and/or supportability to confirm the item was designed in accordance with the System Specification to increase our confidence in the commercial items or NDIs, thereby reducing program risk to determine if the item is operationally effective and operationally suitable 10) We must be careful when making Government unique modifications to commercial or non-developmental items because . [Recognize key logistics related acquisition policies and their impact (e.g., Life-Cycle Cost, Contractor Logistics Support, Commercial and Non-Development Items).] The modifications may invalidate the available testing and usage data. The modifications may not be necessary to accomplish the operational need. All benefits of acquiring a commercial or non-developmental item are lost when a modification is made to that item. Modifications to commercial items are not consistent with acquisition reform initiatives. 11) Changes made late in development or early in production usually have less impact on program cost and schedule than changes made early in development. [Recognize the impact of manufacturing on cost, schedule and performance.] True Fals e Introduce variability in the manufacturing process Minimize total number of parts Use standard components Use a modular approach 13) As part of the overall systems engineering process, there are a variety of software development methods, but the three most common at DoD are the Waterfall Approach, the Incremental Approach, and the Approach. [Recognize the relationship between software development activities and the systems engineering process.] Spira l Recurrin g Evolutionar y Iterativ e 14) A highly producible design will increase .
