ACQ 202 Module 2 Exam answers: Part I Planning - Acquisition Strategy Development Which of the following is a true statement about the Product Support Strategy Process Model? - -It enables the id... entification of supportability and sustainment strategies near the end of the life. -It is an iterative process in which the sustainment of a system (or systems) is adapted and evolved to optimally support the needs and requirements of the Warfighter. -It is a continuing process that assists in the identification and evolution of the PSM IPT. -It is a one-time process that defines the needs and requirements of the Warfighter early in the life cycle. Executive Orders on environmental activities and policy, sometimes referred to as "Greening the Government": - -States that Major Program Managers must take and pass formal training in environmental protection. -Directs all Federal Agencies to establish plans to improve energy efficiency, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, conserve and protect water resources and reduce or eliminate toxic or hazardous materials. -Exempts less-than-ACAT I programs from compliance with National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) procedures if they have an approved Environmental Impact Statement. -Applies only to ACAT I and ACAT II programs.

It is used to develop __________________ for dissemination and implementation throughout the program for which it is created. - -System security engineering plans -Updated criticality analysis -Counterintelligence analytical products -Tailored protection guidance Transitioning to Integrated Product and Process Development (IPPD) will involve application of certain key tenets, such as customer focus, concurrent development, and: - -Risk avoidance -Reliance on independent organizations -Event-driven scheduling -Supervisory leadership In which phase of the life cycle does the Life Cycle Sustainment Plan (LCSP) focus on how sustainment performance is measured, managed, assessed, and reported? - -TMRR Phase -P&D Phase -EMD Phase -O&S Phase The Test and Evaluation Master Plan (TEMP) is mandated by DoD policy and must be updated periodically to ensure that it stays current as the program evolves through the life cycle. – -True -False Operational Measures of Effectiveness (MOE) and Measures of Suitability (MOS) are formally documented in the ________. - -Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) -Initial Capabilities Document (ICD) -Acquisition Strategy -Test and Evaluation Master Plan (TEMP) The final approval authority for system-related National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) documentation is the: - -Program Manager (PM) -Component Acquisition Executive (CAE) -Environmental coordinator -Under Secretary of Defense (Environmental Security) Barriers to successful implementation of Integrated Product and Process Development (IPPD) include the following (Select all that apply): - -Poorly run meetings or reviews -Need for significant cultural change -Empowered, qualified team members -Open discussions with no secrets -Contractor uses IPPD / DoD does not Each of the following issues impact test planning and execution activities except one. Select the one that is NOT a test planning/execution issue. - -Limited test articles -Limited test time -Limited test reports -Limited test resources Joint Interoperability Test Command (JITC) has primary responsibility for developmental test and evaluation (T&E) functions throughout DoD. - -True -False The risk management model includes risk planning, risk identification, ___________, risk handling, and risk monitoring. - -Risk handling (NOT THIS ONE) -Risk control -Risk avoidance -Risk analysis Which one of the following organizations would conduct testing on the flight controls of a fighter aircraft to ensure it will meet the critical technical parameters (CTPs) derived from the Capability Development Document (CDD)? - -Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA) -Joint Interoperability Test Command (JITC) -Air Force Operational Test and Evaluation Center (AFOTEC) -Air Force Materiel Command (AFMC) DoD policy is to consider international cooperative development only after U.S.-only solutions have been shown to be impractical. - -True -False Sources of risk include: - -Production -All of the answers are correct -Design -Schedule who would certify the interoperability performance of a command and control system used by both the Army and the Navy? - Joint Interoperability Test Command If the program is on the DOT&E Oversight List, which one of the following test and evaluation (T&E) products is required before the full rate production decision review? - DOT&E report on initial operational test and evaluation One of the primary disadvantages of international cooperative development includes - increased documentation system-specific validated online lifecycle threat (VOLT) reports are required to be kept current and validated throughout the acquisition process. All major defense acquisition programs (MDAPs) must have a updated VOLT in place at: - Milestone A (TMRR phase) the risk management model includes risk planning, risk identification, ____________, risk handling, and risk monitoring. - risk analysis regarding test and evaluation (T&E) issues that may affect a program's acquisition strategy, the program office can use _________ to aid in understanding the implications of any necessary tradeoffs among testing constraints. - design of experiments (DOE) as part of the program protection plan (PPP), cybersecurity is a critical priority for DoD.
