Systems Engineering During the Materiel Solution Analysis and Technology Development Phases

Systems engineering provides the technical foundation for an acquisition program throughout the acquisition process. Particularly in the early stages of an acquisition, systems engineering analysis and products are vital to the early program office.1 During this time, the program seeks to assess the feasibility of addressing user needs and the technology of potential solutions, and it determines robust estimates of cost, schedule, and risk intended to result in a predictable, disciplined acquisition.
