Abstract:

The technique has been utilized principally with in-house efforts involving two or three man years of efforts and small facilities. The technique could be applied to large team efforts but modification would be required. The discussion starts with the initial request from the engineer and each step of the approval and documentation mechanism is covered, including the forms utilized, and ends with a discussion of the display system utilized by management for following progress on each effort. Brief comments are made as to certain fringe benefits which accrue from this technique. Conclusions regarding other needs for management techniques are presented.
