Answered Test - ACQ 202 Module 3 Exam: Part II Designing - Prototyping the System. Graded A+ In the process of conducting design considerations, a program's systems engineers are deciding from amon... g Components A, B, and C. All three components meet performance requirements. Component C has the highest initial cost; however, due to its superior reliability, it is projected to lead to lower life cycle costs than Components A and B in the long run, and this will help meet the program's affordability goals. This is adequate justification forthe team to select Component C. - ✔✔- *True* - False Which of the following supportability analysis tools relies on scheduled maintenance to spot a failure before it impacts system effectiveness? - ✔✔- Level of Repair Analysis (LORA) - Failure Modes, Effects and Criticality Analysis (FMECA) - *Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM)* - Test, Analyze, Fix and Test (TAFT) In our decision matrix, Option 1 receives a "3" for reliability and a "2" for cost, and Option 2 receives a "1" for reliability and a "3" for cost. The reliability criterion has been assigned a weight of 0.4 and the cost criterion has been assigned a weight of 0.6. In accordance with the decision matrix approach, which of the following statements is true? - ✔✔- Option 2 is better than Option 1 because its total weighted score is lower. - Option 1 and Option 2 each score a total of 2.5, therefore, either choice is fine. - *Option 1 is better than Option 2 because its total weighted score is higher.* -Option 2 is better than Option 1 because its total weighted score is higher. Modeling and simulation can enhance the Systems Engineering process by: - ✔✔- Providing designs that will consistently exceed functional capabilities. - Eliminating technical risk before production begins. - *Helping IPT members to understand the interrelationship of components without physically changing the system.* - Quickly providing physical solutions to meet functional capabilities. In accordance with DoD acquisition policy and guidance, every program should consider, at a minimum, ______, human systems integration, reliability, availability, and maintainability. - ✔✔- *Open systems architecture* - Return on assets - Profit margin - Return on investment Which Systems Engineering tool would be used to describe the products to be developed under the terms of the contract? - ✔✔- *Work Breakdown Structure (WBS)* - Technical Performance Measurement (TPM) - Modeling and Simulation - Trade Study When making tradeoffs among competing features, what can be used to quantifiably compare alternatives by selecting, weighting, and applying criteria? - ✔✔- Parametric modeling - *Decision matrix* - Delphi technique - Least squares regression analysis During the Developmental Test (DT) effort, the purpose of verification is to determine ______. - ✔✔- Appropriate technical performance measures for a program - Solutions to any unplanned technical issues that may arise - *Whether or not the system meets its "build to" specifications* - The needed capabilities to reduce the program's technical risk What problem-solving process is used within an integrated Product and Process Development (IPPD) management process to provide a design that balances capability needs? - ✔✔- Technical Performance Measurement - Configuration Management [Show More]
