Questions and answers
When must Army acquisition strategies address survivability?
Survivability will be addressed in acquisition strategies for all Army materiel. (paragraph 7)
During which acquisition phases must survivability be considered?
Survivability will be considered during all acquisition phases. (paragraph 7)
What must the initial capabilities document define for survivability planning?
The initial capabilities document (ICD) will define the shortfalls or deficiencies of existing capabilities, the missions expected operational environment, and the level of desired mission capability in these environments. (paragraph 7)
What survivability information must the CDD and CPD incorporate?
The capabilities development document (CDD) and capabilities production document (CPD) incorporate system survivability requirements, identifying survivability thresholds and objectives, and specify whether or not the need is mission critical. (paragraph 7)
How long does survivability analysis continue?
Survivability analysis is a process that starts during the pre-acquisition phase and continues throughout the life cycle of the system. (paragraph 4)
