Abstrakt: In 2009, the US Army initiated a large acquisition program to modernize one of its systems. Due to circumstances, the program had to accelerate the system requirements review (SRR) milestone from eighteen months to five months. This paper describes the new agile requirements analysis process used, which accomplished this seventy percent schedule reduction. The process consisted of using model‐based systems engineering (MBSE), storyboarding techniques, collaborative daily analysis of system and subsystems requirements, and the iterative and incremental delivery of requirements which engineers used for the SRR. The paper focuses on the practical application of an agile systems engineering requirements analysis and its benefits to manage caprice, uncertainty, risk, variation, and evolution (CURVE) in a large US Department of Defense (DoD) program while reducing the deployment time.
