NAF 4.1-view Pr: Resource Roadmap

Pr — Resource Roadmap

Purpose & Usage

The Pr Vi ewpoint is concerned with Resource Roadmaps with Resource Milestones related to the evolution of Capability Configurations

  • Product Lifecycle Management.
  • Version Control.
  • Release Scheduling.
  • Development of incremental acquisition strategy.
  • Configuration Management.
  • Planning technology insertion.

Scope

  • Shall contain Resource Readiness Levels that Resource Milestones define.
  • Shall contain Capability Configurations that the Resource Readiness Level delivers.
  • May show Resource Projects and how they schedule Resource Milestones and define the evolution of the Capability Configuration.
  • May trace Resource Readiness Levels to Logical Readiness Levels.
  • May trace Resource Milestones to Logical Milestones.

Representation

  • Timeline view.
  • Herringbone style diagram.
  • Augmented chart in style of a Gantt Chart.

Notes on the Example

This example, similar to other roadmap viewpoints in NAFv4, is how to model the scenario and is important for the understanding of the evolution of the architecture over time and its impact on decisioning. However, the specific representation of the roadmap for the benefit of non -architectural stakeholder readership should be as described in the content of the ‘Representation’ section of this viewpoint definition.
