Advanced Capability Build (ACB) –Defines the capability delivered to a specific platform in an integrated combat system package
Common Source Library (CSL) – is an approach where the software for all ship classes within a combat system family (e.g., SSDS or Aegis) comes from a single source library.
Aegis & SSDS Combat System Transition to Open Architecture
SSDS used common source library approach and development to fulfill self defense requirements across multiple platform types with existing combat system elements
SSDS MK 2 OA adds flexibility to accommodate change (requirements, sensors, weapons, ship class modifications)

Open Architecture Common Source Library Approach
PEO IWS is extending the concept of a Common Source Library (CSL) used in the Ship Self-Defense System (SSDS) Combat Systems family to the Aegis Combat Systems family which will:– Improve Combat System stability– Manage capability improvement and growth– Provide continuous maintenance updates -- fix once, apply
to many ships– Maximize delivery of the same capabilities to modernized
new construction ships– Operating from a combat system family CSL broadens
competitive opportunity
The SSDS and Aegis Common Source Libraries provide a balanced approach for Fleet modernization, sustainment, and New Construction

Common Source Library . . . Fix Once, Apply to Many Baselines
Common Source Libraries allow reuse and commonality within a combat system family for modernized ships and new construction ships
Modernized ships and new construction ships will have the same combat system capabilities
Investing in disciplined cross-program Configuration Management is critical to leveraging Common Source Library components across the enterprise
Advanced Capability Build process can only be implemented via a CSL Common Source Library is critical to improving fleet interoperability

Better Buying Power: Guidance for Obtaining Greater Efficiency & Productivity in Defense Spending,14 Sep 2010OUSD (AT&L) Guidance Roadmap
Contains 23 principal actions to improve efficiency organized in 5 major areas
Target Affordability and Control Cost Growth (Area #1)
-Mandate affordability as a requirement (1)• At Milestone A set affordability target as a Key Performance Parameter• At Milestone B establish engineering trades showing how each key
design feature affects the target cost-Drive productivity growth through Will Cost/Should Cost management (2)-Eliminate redundancy within war-fighter portfolios (3)-Make production rates economical and hold them stable (4)-Set shorter program timelines and manage to them (5)
Incentivize Productivity & Innovation in Industry (Area #2)
-Reward contractors for successful supply chain and indirect expense management (6)-Increase the use of FPIF contract type where appropriate using a 50/50 share line and 120 percent ceiling as a point of departure (7)-Adjust progress payments to incentivize performance(8)-Extend the Navy’s Preferred Supplier Program to a DoD-wide pilot (9)-Reinvigorate industry’s independent research and development and protect the defense technology base (10)
Promote Real Competition (Area #3)
-Present a competitive strategy at each program milestone (11)- Remove obstacles to competition (12)
• Allow reasonable time to bid• Require non-certified cost and pricing data on single offers• Require open system architectures and set rules for acquisition of
technical data rights-Increase dynamic small business role in defense marketplace competition (13)
Improve Tradecraft in Services Acquisition (Area #4)
-Create a senior manager for acquisition of services in each component, following the Air Force’s example (14)-Adopt uniform taxonomy for different types of services (15)-Address causes of poor tradecraft in services acquisition (16)
• Assist users of services to define requirements and prevent creep via requirements templates
• Assist users of services to conduct market research to support competition and pricing
• Enhance competition by requiring more frequent re-compete of knowledge-based services
• Limit the use of time and materials and award fee contracts for services
• Require that services contracts exceeding $1B contain cost efficiency objectives
-Increase small business participation in providing services (17)
Reduce Non-Productive Processes and Bureaucracy (Area #5)
-Reduce the number of OSD-level reviews to those necessary to support major investment decisions or to uncover and respond to significant program execution issues (18)-Eliminate low-value-added statutory processes (19)-Reduce by half the volume and cost of internal and congressional reports (20)-Reduce non-value-added overhead imposed on industry (21)-Align DCMA and DCAA processes to ensure work is complementary (22)-Increase use of Forward Pricing Rate Recommendations (FPRRs) to reduce administrative costs (23)
