A.2 Glossary of Terms

Acceptance Into Service. Acceptance of materiel by the Sponsor satisfying a Staff Requirement.

Assessment Phase. The second phase of six, within the CADMID procurement phases, beginning after a project has passed Initial Gate. The Integrated Project Team (IPT) produces and baselines a System Requirements Document (SRD), and identifies the most cost-effective technical and procurement solution to the requirement. Risk is reduced to a level consistent with delivering an acceptable level of performance to a tightly controlled time and cost. A Business Case is assembled for the Main Gate Approval.

Availability. A measure of the degree to which an item is in an operable and committable state at the start of a mission when the mission is called for at an unknown (random) time.

Baseline Comparison System (BCS). A current operational system, or a composite of current operational sub-systems, which most closely represents the design, operational, and support characteristics of the new system under development.

Capability Working Group (CWG). A stakeholder group responsible to a Capability Manager for the development of strategy in their area, the consideration of options in the annual planning process, and the development of specific equipment options to meet capability gaps.

Central Customer. The customer prior to the point when equipment becomes available to the user and for upgrades to in-service equipment that reflect a change to the user’s requirement.

Codification. The formal identification, classification and numbering of items of the Defence Inventory in accordance with the NATO Codification System as set out in the NATO Manual for Codification.

Common Source Data Base (CSDB). An information store of individual Data Modules, containing textual and/or non-textual information, required for the production of Technical Publications for a system and its associated support. The information is stored in units, called Data Modules, which are indexed by their unique Data Module Code and can be extracted to produce the required outputs. Each Data Module contains issue control mechanisms to maintain configuration control of the CSDB.

Concept Phase. The first phase of six, within the CADMID procurement phases, during which the embryonic IPT is formed. The Capability Working Group (CWG), assisted by the IPT, produce and baseline a User Requirements Document (URD) defining the current user need,

A comparative evaluation derived from analyses of alternatives (actions, methods, approaches, equipment, weapon systems, support systems, force combinations, etc.) in terms of the interrelated influences of cost and effectiveness objectives and support costs of the materiel system.

Critical Item. Examples of Critical Items are given below:

(a) The failure of which would critically affect the system safety, cause the system to become unavailable or unable to achieve mission objectives, or cause extensive/expensive maintenance and repair.

NOTE: High-value items are reliability-critical for design-to-life-cycle cost.

(b)The failure of which would prevent the acquisition of data to evaluate system safety, availability, mission success, or need for maintenance/repair.

(c)Which has stringent performance requirement(s) in its intended application relative to state-of-the-art techniques for the item.

(d)The sole failure of which causes system failure.

(e)Which is stressed in excess of specified derating criteria.

ANNEX A

Integrated Support Plan. The Contractor's principal ILS management plan.

ILSM. An individual responsible for the management of ILS.

ILSP. The formal planning document for the integration of the activities concerned with logistics support. It is kept current throughout the project life. It sets forth the concept of operational support, provides a detailed ILS programme to fit with the overall programme and results in the necessary ILS information required by decision making bodies to make sound decisions in the system development and production.

In-Service Phase. The fifth phase of six, within the CADMID procurement phases, where the IPT, now under Defence Logistics Organisation (DLO) line management, provides effective support to the front line. It maintains the levels of performance agreed with Customer 2 and carries out approved upgrades or improvements, refits or acquisition increments.

Initial Gate. A relatively low approval hurdle, between the Concept and Assessment Phases of the CADMID procurement phases, intended to encourage early and full exploration of a wide range of options for meeting a particular capability. A Business Case at Initial Gate should confirm that there is a well-constructed plan for the Assessment Phase that gives reasonable confidence that there are flexible solutions within the performance, cost and time envelope the Central Customer has proposed. Approval at Initial Gate conveys no commitment on the Central Customer or the approving authorities to a project proceeding to or beyond Main Gate.

Initial Provisioning (IP). IP comprises assessing the range of spares required to meet the Availability requirements, the quantity needed to support the main equipment in the early period of service, Initial Support equipment, and the placing of firm contracts for these items. IP is also required for the introduction of modifications throughout the life of an equipment. The main IP phase continues until sufficient data is available to reprovision; it is normally for about the first 2 years of Service operation.

In-Service Date (ISD). The date by which the equipment or a specified number of equipments will contribute to the operational capability of the Service concerned. The basis for arriving at this date should be explained in the Staff Requirement.

Integrated Project Team (IPT). The body responsible for managing a project from Concept to Disposal. Its main tasks include developing the SRD, devising equipment solutions to meet that requirement, and managing the procurement and in-service support of the equipment. The Smart Procurement IPT is characterised by its ‘cradle to grave’ responsibility, its inclusion of all the skills necessary to manage its project, and its effective and empowered leader.

IPT Leader. The person with overall responsibility for the IPT, and the line manager of all its core members. The IPT leader may have an extensive background in any one or more of the core IPT membership areas and, if chosen from within the MOD, will be a suitably qualified member of the Acquisition Stream. To succeed, he or she will need to have strong leadership and management skills and the desire to achieve results beyond what is currently accepted as the ‘norm’.

ANNEX A

Intellectual Property Rights(IPR). The respective rights of the Crown and contractor or other owner to receive, copy, use, have used and disseminate information.

Interoperability. The ability of systems, units or forces to provide services to and accept services from other systems, units or forces and to use the services so exchanged to enable them to operate effectively together.

Invitation to Tender (ITT). An ITT is a package of documents issued by the MOD to potential contractors which invites bids for the supply of goods or services against a defined set of terms and conditions and technical specifications.

Invoicing. The submission of invoices, by Contractors, in electronic format to MOD's Payment Authority, or in paper form during the interim before electronic transmission becomes available.

ISSP. Integrated Supply Support Procedures (ISSP) are procedures for Initial Provisioning (IP), Codification, Re-provisioning, Procurement Planning (PP), Order Administration (OA), Invoicing and Repair Administration (RA), based upon the functional standard of S2000M, and harmonized to integrate with the LSA and Electronic Documentation standards adopted by MOD.

Key Equipment. A key equipment is a system or item of equipment which is essential for operations and for which availability must be maintained. With large, complex equipment, it is probable that surging to meet realistic emergency timescales will be difficult to achieve. In such instances, major sub assemblies should be considered key equipments and the methodology applied on that basis.

Level of Repair Analysis (LORA). A systematic procedure to determine the cost of alternative maintenance options, taking into account such variables as spares support, ground equipment and manpower cost.

Life Cycle Cost (LCC). LCC is made up from the costs reflecting not only the acquisition and development costs but also the operational and support costs throughout the life of the equipment. It is not possible to give an accurate mathematical definition as these vary between life cycle models. However, agreement of the definition of a particular model to be used in calculating LCC should be agreed by all parties before accepting the results.

Life Limited Item. An item that has a limited and predictable useful life and could be considered for replacement on a pre-planned basis for reliability, safety or economic reasons.

Life-Profile. A time-phased description of the events and environments an item experiences from manufacture to final expenditures or removal from the operation inventory, to include one or more mission profiles.

Logical Software Function. A process in the system functional breakdown, which has been identified as a candidate for implementation, either partially or wholly, in software.
