The development of space-borne Electro-Optical (EO) sensors for both NASA and the DOD is currentlyoverrunning initial cost and schedule estimates by 2x to 3x, in an environment where Congressional reviewand even cancellation of these programs is triggered by more modest overruns of 2o% to 3o%. A substantialimprovement in the cycle time of development for these systems is needed while retaining adequate sensorperformance levels with high reliability. Concurrent engineering practices promise significant reductions inproject cost and delivery time.
