Reinventing the process by which military needs are transformed into combatants and warfighting systems is a task of great moment for the Navy. This report considers a reinvention effort driven by three factors: (1) Making sure the design process is driven by what the warfighters (mission teams) must do -- that is, put ordnance on target; (2) Adopting a 'system of systems' approach to integration so that a unity of effort can be maintained across all parts of the ship, from keel to masthead; (3) Making sure that capable ships are also affordable through continual improvement of acquisition practices.
