DoD Information Assurance Certification and Accreditation Process. The term is general to all of DoD, not just the Army.
According to the Department of Defense (DOD), a system is best defined as a set of interrelated components working together toward a common goal. This definition emphasizes the integration of various elements, including hardware, software, personnel, procedures, and facilities, to achieve specific operational objectives. Systems are characterized by their ability to interact and adapt within a defined environment, ensuring effective performance and support of military operations.
Responsibility for reviewing and analyzing the results of operational test and evaluation for each major Department of Defense (DoD) acquisition program primarily lies with the Director of Operational Test and Evaluation (DOT&E). This role is mandated to ensure that operational testing is conducted effectively and that the results are communicated to inform decision-makers. Additionally, program managers and other stakeholders are involved in this process, but DOT&E has the ultimate oversight.
