3.3  V&V in Investment Analysis

IA is a flexible process that is tailored for the specific analysis to be performed.  Tailoring actions are approved by the Acquisition Executive or the Investment Decision Authority (IDA) and recorded in the appropriate plan and record of decision for Initial or Final Investment Analysis.

3.3.1  Initial Investment Analysis

Initial Investment Analysis evaluates alternative solutions to mission need and provides realistic options to the IDA that satisfy FAA strategic and performance goals and achieve best overall value for the FAA and its customers.  The principal outputs are the updated Program Requirements Document (uPRD), preliminary business case, preliminary Exhibit 300 (for designated programs), updated EA products and amendments, and plan for Final Investment Analysis.

The primary focus of V&V during Initial Investment Analysis is to validate updated program requirements and the business case to ensure selection of the best alternative for implementation.

The decision point for Initial Investment Analysis along with the corresponding minimum required work products that must be verified and validated, the criteria for the V&V activities (i.e. what each must be V&V’d against) in addition to the concurrence of the appropriate stakeholders, and the stakeholders responsible for V&V are identified in Table 3.
