COMSAT Communications Satellite Corporation COMSEC Communications Security. Concept Exploration & Definition The initial phase (Phase 0) of the system acquisition process, beginning at Mission Need Determination. During this phase, the acquisition strategy is developed, system alternatives are proposed and examined, and the system program requirements document is expanded to support subsequent phases. Concept of Operations (CONOPS) (1) A statement, in broad outline, of a commander’s outline or intent in regard to an operation or series of operations. The concept is designed to give an overall picture of the operation. (MDA Lexicon) (2) A verbal or graphic statement, in broad outline, of a commander’s assumptions or intent in regard to an operation or series of operations. The concept of operations frequently is embodied in campaign plans and operation plans; in the later case, particularly when the plans cover a series of connected operations to be carried out simultaneously or in succession. The concept is designed to give an overall picture of the operation. It is included primarily for additional clarity of purpose. Concept Plan An operation plan in concept format. Also called CONPLAN. Concurrency Part of an acquisition strategy which combines or overlaps two or more phases of the acquisition process, or combines development T&E with operational T&E. Concurrent Engineering A systematic approach to the integrated, simultaneous design of products and their related processes, including manufacture and support. This approach is intended to cause developers, from the beginning, to consider all elements of the system life cycle from requirements development through dispersal, including cost, schedule, and performance. CONEX CONOPS Exerciser. Configuration A collection of an item’s descriptive and governing characteristics, which can be expressed in functional terms (i.e., what performance the item is expected to achieve); and in physical terms (i.e., what the item should look like and consist of when it is built). MDA GLOSSARY, VER. 4.0 C 59 Configuration Audit One of the Configuration Management tasks which includes a functional configuration audit (FCA) to validate that the development of a configuration item has been completed satisfactorily and that the configuration item has achieved to specified performance and functional characteristics, and also includes a physical configuration audit (PCA) to verify that the configuration item “As Built” conforms to the technical documentation which defines the configuration item. Configuration Baseline The configuration documentation formally designated by the Government at a specific time during a system’s or configuration item’s life cycle. Configuration baselines, plus approved changes from those baselines, constitute the current configuration baselines, namely the functional, allocated, and product baselines. Configuration Control One of the Configuration Management tasks that involves the systematic evaluation, coordination, approval, or disapproval of proposed changes to the design and construction of a configuration item whose configuration has been formally approved. Configuration Identification One of the Configuration Management tasks, which require that for every change that is made to an Automated Data processing (ADP) system, the design and requirements of the changed version of the system should be identified. Configuration Item (CI) An aggregation of system elements that satisfies an end use function and is designated by the Government for separate configuration management. Configuration items vary widely in complexity, size, and type. Any item required for logistic support and designated for separate procurement is a configuration item. Configuration items are traceable to the work breakdown structure (WBS). Configuration Management (CM) In computer modeling and simulation, a discipline applying technical and administrative oversight and control to identify and document the functional requirements and capabilities of a model or simulation and its supporting databases, control changes to those capabilities, and document and report the changes.

Contact Fuse Device used to detonate warhead on physical contact with another object. Contingency Deployment Plan (CDP) An executable plan designed to deploy an early missile defense capability and reduce deployment time. The plan provides specific executable deployment options and describes activities required before and after a deployment decision. The plan also allows decision makers to have oversight on technical progress, cost, schedule, and risks associated with a deployment system. Continuity of Command The degree or state of being continuous in the exercise of the authority vested in an individual of the armed forces for the direction, coordination, and control of military forces. Continuity of Operations The degree or state of being continuous in the conduct of functions, tasks, or duties necessary to accomplish a military action or mission in carrying out the national military strategy. It includes the functions and duties of the commander, as well as the supporting functions and duties performed by the staff and others acting under the authority and direction of the commander. Contract Administration Office (CAO) The activity identified in the DoD Directory of Contract Administration Services Components assigned to perform contract administration responsibilities. It is a general term and includes Defense Contract Management Regions (DCMRs), Defense Contract Management Area Operations (DCMAOs), and Defense Plant Representative Offices (DPROs). (Defense Systems Management College Glossary) Contract Data Requirements List (CDRL) Document used to order (“buy”) and require delivery of data. Tells contractor what data to deliver, when and how it will be accepted, where to look for instructions, etc. Contract Definition A funded effort, normally by two or more competing contractors, to establish specifications, to select technical approaches, to identify high-risk areas, and to make cost and production time estimates for developing large weapons systems. Contract Work Breakdown Structure The complete WBS for a contract developed and used by a contractor within the guidelines of MIL-STD 881A, and in accordance with the contract statement of work. Contracting Officer (CO) A person with the authority to enter into, administer, or terminate contracts and make related determinations and findings. The term includes any authorized representatives of the CO acting within the limits of their authority. A CO whose primary responsibility is to administer contracts is an Administrative Contracting Officer. One whose primary responsibility is to terminate contracts and/or settle terminated contracts is a Termination Contracting Officer. A single contracting officer may be responsible for duties in any or all of these areas. Control Authority that may be less than full command exercised by a commander over part of the activities of subordinate or other organizations. Control Abstraction (Software) The process of extracting the essential characteristics of control by defining abstract mechanisms and their associated characteristics while disregarding low-level details and the entities to be controlled.

Design Phase A period of time in the software life cycle during which the designs for architecture, software components, interfaces, and data are created, documented, and verified to satisfy requirements. Design-to-Cost (DTC) Goal Management concept wherein rigorous cost goals are established during development, and the control of systems costs (acquisition, operating, and support) to these goals is achieved by practical tradeoffs between operational capability, performance, costs, and schedule. Cost, as a key design parameter, is addressed on a continuing basis and as an inherent part of the development and production process. A DTC goal should be in the form of average unit flyaway cost. Also, DTC parameters for operation and support will be selected—parameters that are design-controllable, significantly affect O&S costs, and can be measured during test and evaluation. Parameters may be expressed in dollars or by other measurable factors, e.g., manpower, reliability, or maintainability. Firm goals and thresholds will be established no later than entry into EMD (Milestone II). This is an in-house goal, almost contractual in nature, between the PM (Service) and the SECDEF.
