View NAF:Capability Increment
Version & Date
Version 3. See NAF.
Definition
Part of the NATO Programme View.
From p 448, 5.2.8.4 of APPENDIX 5:
A <<ProjectMilestone>> that indicates the point in time at which a project is predicted to deliver or has delivered a <<Capability>>.
Example: When a project reaches Initial Operating Capability (IOC) it may deliver a <<Capability>> with a given set of metrics then deliver a second <<Capability>> corresponding to the same <<Capability>> when it reaches Full Operational Capability (FOC). Both the IOC and FOC milestones would be instances of <<CapabilityIncrement>>.
Covered by NATO release conditions.

Comments
The name of this stereotype is potentially misleading - it isn’t itself an increment of capability (suggestive of a whole:part relationship with NAF::Capability but a type of project milestone. Equally the matched pair - the milestone type that removes a deliverable is NAF::Out of Service and therefore a more logical name might have been ‘In Service’.

In TRAK the introduction is represented using relationships rather than stereotypes - using TRAK:Milestone marks introduction of TRAK:System or TRAK:Project Activity delivers TRAK:System (that realises one or more capabilities)
