VERTICAL AXIS
Using the vertical axis, identify the appropriate required
functionality.
• Review the definitions for the features and functions
to determine if this is an actual need for your
program.
• Remember, higher complexity numbers will generally
mean more dollars to acquire the functionality.
• Higher investment may ultimately result in reduced
total ownership costs for the weapon system.
• Perform tradeoffs and life cycle cost/cost benefit
analysis to determine more detail on payback
opportunities.
FINAL DELIVERABLE IMPACT
Cells located at the intersections of the Functionality rows
and the Content Type columns are either filled solid,
patterned or empty. This is done to indicate the
feasibility of specific functionalities for use with
specific content types.
• If an entire row is filled with a dot pattern, it means
that the functionality cannot (or likely will not) be
applied to individual content and instead will apply
universally to the ETM/IETP.
• If an entire row is white, it means that the
functionality can be applied to an entire ETM/IETP or
to any of the individual content types per the
customer’s requirements.
• If individual blocks in a row are solid, it means that
the functionality cannot be applied to an entire
ETM/IETM, but only to certain individual content types
per the customer’s requirements. Those solid cells
indicate where the functionality cannot apply.
To specify the need for a specific functionality to be
implemented with a specific content type, “check” the cell at the
intersection. To select a functionality that applies to all
content types, “check” the cell in the Final Deliverable Impact
column.
