Naval Postgraduate School
A critique of NAVSTAR global positioning system, user euqipment, configuration control for DoD common and Navy unique items
critiqueofnavsta00abra.pdf (6.983Mb)Abstract
The User Equipment (UE) Global Positioning System (GPS)
Configuration Control structures, procedures and information
system up to March 1983 is critiqued. Our objective was to
explore the existing configuration management plans in terms of
documentation, with specific emphasis in the feasibility of the
configuration control plans for the Navy unique and DoD common
items. Our conclusion is that the GPS Configuration Control Structure is fundamentally sound. However, a major problem of
integrating the various facets of configuration control managemen
exists. To correct this deficiency, the GPS Program must now
obtain interservice and intraservice written agreements of
Configuration Control Responsibility to further specify and
clarify each service's configuration control boundaries.
