“First Production Unit (FPU) in 5”: The National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) and upper management at Lawrence Livermore National Lab (LLNL) have set a long-term goal of decreasing the development cycle of new systems to five years or less. The driver is to be able to respond to emerging situations which require new capabilities more quickly. There are numerous approaches to solve the problem, and any single improvement is likely insufficient. We analyzed a variety of possible solutions at varying levels of specificity as shown in Figure 1. We chose to focus our scope on the optimization of existing documentation processes because it is the least likely to add additional risk and can be accomplished with lower investment than other potential solutions.
