DoD SE Policy and Guidance
Interim DoD Instruction (DoDI) 5000.02• Emphasize intent, planning vs. rules• Acquisition models tailored for
program characteristics and risk• Added emphasis on early requirements,
RFP, technology maturation, software• Extensive updates to SE (encl. 3)
Systems Engineering Plan (SEP)• Approved at milestone reviews, included
in RFP as guidance or compliance
Defense Standardization• Developing new DoD-specific standards for: SE, Technical
Reviews/Audits, CM, Manufacturing, Logistics
GFY15 Planned Activities• SE updates: Defense Acquisition Guidebook (DAG); SEP template;
Risk Management Guide

Keynote: Hon. Wm. LaPlanteAsst Secy Air Force (Acq)Keys to acquisition:
• Agility, adapt to unknown threats, open architectures• “Our ability to predict is uncertain – we will be
wrong, so we must adapt and be strategic.”
Air Force priorities:1. Get our programs right (size, mission, …)2. Transparency – tell it straight
“Read Mr. Kendall’s report on performance of the defense acquisition system” – contract types, having the right incentives
3. Own the technical baseline – system models, performance, data rights4. Implement “Better Buying Power” – “should cost”, affordability, sustainment5. Build systems for adversaries, mission threats – don’t wait (e.g., cyber)
What is systems engineering?• “To be a true SE, you must be an expert in something – then build on that”• Know the fundamentals of the domain for your system• Be empirical – follow the data vs. opinions• Be close to a warfighter expert, e.g., C2, validation, sustainment• “We would have systems engineers be PMs on all programs”

Government PM Panel
PMs from major service/agency programs
Significant discussion topics and challenges:• Communication, communication• Challenges to move more rapidly
and meet affordability targets• Best practices for managing costs,
schedules, risks, dependencies• Too many programs have bad
scheduling practices• PMs are often incentivized for short-
term vs. long-term issues• Teach better root cause analysis
