PREPARATION INSTRUCTIONS | |||||||
|
7.1 Reference
documents. The applicable
issue of the documents cited herein, including their approval dates and
dates of any applicable amendments, notices, and revisions shall be as
specified in the contract. | |||||||
|
| |||||||
|
7.2 Format. The Human Engineering Program Plan
format shall be contractor selected.
Unless effective presentation would be degraded, the initially used
format arrangement shall be used for all subsequent
submissions. | |||||||
|
| |||||||
|
7.3 Content. The Human Engineering Program Plan
shall contain the following sections: | |||||||
|
| |||||||
|
7.3.1 Table of
contents, list of illustrations and
introduction. | |||||||
|
| |||||||
|
7.3.2
Tailoring. This
section shall propose tailoring of MIL-HDBK-46855 as specifically
applicable to this contract, additional to any tailoring already
accomplished by the procuring activity or where exceptions or other
tailoring changes are warranted.
This proposed tailoring of MIL-HDBK-46855 shall identify specific
provisions by paragraph, rationale, for tailoring and effects of tailoring
on the human engineering program.
If no tailoring of MIL-HDBK-46855 is proposed beyond that specified
by the procuring activity, this shall be
stated. | |||||||
|
| |||||||
|
7.3.3
Organization. This
section shall identify and describe the contractor’s primary
organizational element responsible for complying with human engineering
requirements. The functions
and internal structure of this element shall be defined. Structural definition shall
include the number of proposed personnel on an annual basis and summary
job descriptions for each person.
In addition, the relationships of this element to other
organizational elements responsible for areas impacted by human
engineering, such as those charged with equipment and software design,
safety, training, test and evaluation, integrated logistic support, and
other engineering specialty programs (such as availability, reliability,
maintainability, configuration management, and risk management) shall be
fully explained.
| |||||||
|
| |||||||
|
7.3.4 Human
engineering in subcontractor efforts. If any work related to system
components or software having human interface is to be performed under
subcontract, the subcontractor’s organizational element responsible for
human engineering shall be described to the same extent as the prime
engineering requirements proposed for inclusion in each of these
subcontracts. The method(s)
by which the prime contractor monitors subcontractor compliance shall be
fully described. | |||||||
|
| |||||||
|
7.3.5 Human
engineering in system analysis.
This section shall identify those human engineering efforts in
system analysis (or, where contractually required, in system engineering),
as described in MIL-HDBK-46855, | |||||||
|

|
which are contractually
applicable, and the organizational element(s) responsible for their
performance. Human
engineering participation in system mission analysis, determination of
system functional requirements and capabilities, allocation of system
functional requirements to human/hardware/software, development of system
functional flows, and performance of system effectiveness studies shall be
fully described. Any data
required from the procuring activity shall also be
described. |
|
|
|
7.3.6 Human
engineering in equipment detail design. This section shall describe the
human engineering effort in equipment detail design to ensure compliance
with the applicable provisions of the Human Factors Design Guide
(DOT/FAA/CT-96/1) and other human engineering requirements specified by
the contract. Human
engineering participation in studies, tests, mock-up evaluations, dynamic
simulation, detail drawing reviews, systems design reviews and
system/equipment/component design and performance specification
preparation and reviews shall be fully described. Finally, this section shall
propose tailoring of the Human Factors Design Guide as specifically
applicable to the contract, additional to any tailoring already
accomplished by the procuring activity or where exceptions and other
tailoring changes are warranted.
This proposed tailoring of the Human Factors Design Guide shall
identify specific provisions, by paragraph, as applicable. If no tailoring of the Human
Factors Design Guide is proposed beyond that specified by the procuring
activity, this shall be stated.
|
|
|
|
7.3.7 Human
engineering in equipment procedure development. This section shall describe the
human engineering effort in equipment procedure development to ensure
compliance with MIL-HDBK-46855.
The methods shall be stated by which the contractor shall ensure
that: |
|
|
|
a. operator and maintainer functions and tasks are
allocated, organized, and sequenced for efficiency, safety, and
reliability. |
|
|
|
b. the results of this effort are reflected in
operational, technical and training publications, and in training system
design. |
|
|
|
7.3.8 Derivation of
personnel and training requirements. This section shall describe the
methods by which the contractor shall ensure that operator and maintainer
personnel and training requirements are based upon human performance
requirements developed from system analysis
data. |
|
|
|
7.3.9 Human
engineering in test and evaluation. This section shall describe human
engineering test and evaluation as an integrated effort within the
contractor’s total test and evaluation program and shall contain specific
information to show how and when the contractor will follow human
engineering test and evaluation guidance of MIL-HDBK-46855. Design milestones shall be
identified at which human engineering tests are to be performed to assess
compatibility among human performance requirements, personnel aptitude and
skill requirements, training requirements, and equipment design aspects of
personnel equipment/software interfaces. Major test and demonstration
objectives shall be identified and proposed test methods shall be
described. This section shall
also identify the human engineering personnel involved in test and
evaluation, and a summary of the human engineering test schedule. The summary test schedule shall
depict major human engineering tests, evaluations, and demonstrations in
relationship to major project milestones such as 90 percent design
release, project level design reviews, first article demonstration tests,
and commencement of procuring activity
testing. |
|
|
|
7.3.10 Human
engineering deliverable data products. This section shall identify and
briefly describe each human engineering deliverable data product specified
in the contract. |
|
|
|
7.3.11 Time-Phase
schedule and level of effort.
This section consists of a milestone chart which identifies each
separate human engineering effort to be accomplished and shall state the
level of effort (in person-months) for each
task. |
