Abstract
Defense Department program managers and industry can streamline the acquisition process by conducting an early assessment of the "viability"of technical solutions during the market research phase of acquisition planning, or as the first step of the source selection. This research documents a viability assessment process as a best practice, provides an example of a successful application, and suggests metrics for measuring success.
