AEROSPACE RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT AND ENGINEERING SUPPORT - ARDES - NNN06AA01C..THE NASA STRATEGIC INVESTMENT DIVISION (SID) HAS ESTABLISHED A NUMBER OF INITIATIVES TO IMPROVE ITS COST ESTIMATES. THESE INITIATIVES WERE THE RESULT OF SEVERAL GAO AND OMB REPORTS THAT WERE CRITICAL OF NASA'S ABILITY TO PROVIDE REALISTIC COST ANALYSIS. ONE OF THE KEY SID INITIATIVES HAS BEEN THE ESTABLISHMENT OF A FORMAL DOCUMENT, KNOWN AS A COST ANALYSIS DATA REQUIREMENT (CADRE) WHICH IS REQUIRED BY NPR 7120.5E. THIS DOCUMENT CLEARLY DESCRIBES ALL THE IMPORTANT CHARACTERISTICS OF THE PROJECT AT FIVE POINTS IN THE PROJECT'S HISTORY. THE CADRE IS A MEANS TO COLLECT AND TRACK A PROJECT'S HISTORICAL PROGRAMMATIC, TECHNICAL, AND COST INFORMATION AND SERVES AS KEY SOURCE DOCUMENT FOR THE NASA SID. IN ADDITION, THE CADRE WILL BE INCORPORATED INTO THE ONE NASA COST ENGINEERING (ONCE) DATA BASE TO FACILITATE OFFICE OF EVALUATION ENGINEERING AND COST TOOL DEVELOPMENT. USING CADRE, A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF THE CONCEPT DESIGN CHANGES AND THEIR ASSOCIATED COST IN THE PROJECT LIFE CYCLE WILL BE ATTAINED RESULTING IN MORE ADVANCED COSTING PRACTICES AND TOOLS. CADRE CONSISTS OF THREE PARTS: PART A IS GENERAL DESCRIPTIVE INFORMATION, PART B PROVIDES TECHNICAL DATA, AND PART C CONTAINS PROJECT COST DATA.
