Goal | Establish clear benchmarks to drive the performance of System of interest to a level that makes it suitable for widespread deployment. |

Requirements met by this process step | ISO 29148 (2018) para 5.2.3 ISO 15288 (2015) para 6.4.1.3 a) |
Inputs | AMOD-106 Enterprise goals |
Outputs | CONOPS boilerplate section |
Methodology | In ARCH.144 the enterprise and its goals are defined. In ARCH.009 a set of metrics/measures is defined to quantify the railway infrastructure's operational effectiveness (that is, the degree to which the goals are achieved). In this activity, target values are to be defined for these measures of effectiveness. It will probably not be possible to arrive at a single target value for every possible application of System of interest. Measures of effectiveness can be imagined at national level but also at local levels and they may vary. For example, while overall railway capacity may increase by 35% nationally, it does not follow that every railway that deploys System of interest needs to achieve a 35% capacity increase. Some will achieve higher, and some lower. The intention is to establish targets that will drive the performance targets of System of interest to a level where System of interest is sufficient to be used widely on e.g. DB. In this activity, a strategic decision needs to be made whether that means setting the MoE targets to reflect the most demanding digital railway operations, or to a less strict value, whereby we would accept that System of interest would not be the right solution for some worst-case scenarios. These strategic decisions should be driven by e.g. senior DB management but it is for our team to organise the activity and obtain answers to all open points so that the development of System of interest can be guided by a vision of the level of effectiveness the digital railway is expected to achieve. General approach should be:
|
Tools and non-human resources | No specific tools identified |
Cardinality | One-off with revisions permitted (under exceptional circumstances, that is, large-scale business change) |
Completion criteria | The MoE target values were agreed with stakeholders The MoE target values were documented |
Design review | ARCH.R.2 Operational review - consolidated |
