Remove personalities from the process. Reduce training time for OSD TEMP reviewers. The TRM's output consists of each interview question and the user's comments, ordered by part as defined in the DoD 5000.2-M, Part 7. The primary goals of this module were to Harmonize key acquisition documents. This module was more challenging to build than the TRM because there is no governing DoD guidance pertaining to risk assessment methodology or structure.
Risk assessment is performed by action officers on a very subjective and individual basis.
These decisions are based upon interpretations of both objective and subjective data. The TEMP Build Module is a software tool designed to provide assistance to TEMP writers. The TBM is expected to be completed and available in March 1995. Expert systems will never replace the technical knowledge necessary to write or review a TEMP or to assess risk, but ATPS can improve the speed and quality of these tasks, regardless of the user's level of experience. The combination of highly effective technologies allows the user to concentrate on the tasks at hand rather than volumes of printed reference material and unfamiliar software.
