Purpose of the review

The Preliminary Design Review (PDR) ensures the preliminary design and basic system architecture are complete, and that there is technical confidence the capability need can be satisfied within cost and schedule goals. The PDR provides the acquisition community, end user, and other stakeholders with an opportunity to understand the trade studies conducted during the preliminary design, and thus confirm that design decisions are consistent with the user’s performance and schedule needs. The PDR also establishes the system’s allocated baseline.

Purpose of the review

The System Verification Review (SVR) is the technical assessment point at which the actual system performance is verified to meet the requirements in the system performance specification and is documented in the system functional baseline. The Functional Configuration Audit

(FCA) is the technical audit during which the actual performance of a system element is verified and documented to meet the requirements in the system element performance specification in the allocated baseline.

Purpose of the review

The Production Readiness Review (PRR) for the system determines whether the system design is ready for production, and whether the developer has accomplished adequate production planning for entering

Low-Rate Initial Production (LRIP) and Full-Rate Production (FRP).

Production readiness increases over time with incremental assessments accomplished at various points in the life cycle of a program.

TARDEC

Purpose of the review

The Test Readiness Review (TRR) is a technical review designed to ensure that the subsystem or system under review is ready to proceed into formal test. The TRR assesses test objectives, test methods and procedures, scope of tests, and safety and confirms that required test resources have been properly identified and coordinated to support planned tests. The TRR verifies the traceability of planned tests to program requirements and user needs. It determines the completeness of test procedures and their compliance with test plans and descriptions. The TRR also assesses the system under review for development maturity, cost/ schedule effectiveness, and risk to determine readiness to proceed to formal testing.

Entrance Criteria

Program manager's and T&E WIPT's determination that preliminary, functional, and pre-qualification test evaluation results form a satisfactory basis to initiate formal, system-level testing.

System has stabilized in configuration Compliance with Pre-TRR checklist

Exit Criteria

Necessary stakeholders were involved.

All planned tests verify a requirement that is directly traceable back to a system specification or other program requirement.

The system under test (i.e. configuration) is sufficiently mature, defined, and representative to accomplish planned test objectives and or support defined program objectives.

All planned preliminary, informal, functional, unit level, subsystem, system, and qualification tests were conducted, and are the results are satisfactory.

All expected results are known and their affect on the program is also known.

All planned tests resources (people, test article or articles, facilities, data systems, support equipment, logistics, etc.) are identified.

All risks associated with the tests are known and mitigation plans are complete.

Hazards and ESOH risks associated with the specific testing are identified.

The necessary “Safety Releases” from the Program Manager (PM) are provided to developmental and operational testers prior to any test using personnel.

A fall-back plan (should a technical issue or potential showstopper arise during testing) is available.

Purpose of the review

The Physical Configuration Audit (PCA) is a formal examination to verify the “to be fielded” configuration of a validated system against its design and manufacturing documentation. The objective of the PCA is to resolve any discrepancies between the production-representative item that has successfully passed Operational Test and Evaluation (OT&E) and the associated documentation currently under configuration control.
