Abstract :
In addition to the technical challenges of developing Test Program Sets (TPS) for use on CASS, there is the added management challenge of achieving this within aggressive budgets and schedules. Combining this ever demanding need-with the emerging DoD initiatives to have standard ´processes´ (ways of doing business) and accurate cost data at the process task level (activity based costing) to support process improvement-gives a set of challenges to tomorrow´s Project Manager.
