This proof-of-concept case study analyzes the potential benefits of open architecture (OA) in the AEGIS software maintenance and upgrade process. In a multi-phased approach, the Knowledge Value Added/Real-Options (KVA+RO) framework was applied to sustaining engineering on specific AEGIS software processes. The KVA+RO framework provides decision-makers with a systematic approach for analyzing benefits and assessing risks of potential technological acquisitions. Results from our research indicate that implementing OA could result in substantial cost savings, optimal return on investment and increased benefits.
