Modular Open Systems Approach (MOSA)
Assessment
The Modular Open Systems Approach (MOSA) Program Assessment
and Rating Tool (PART) is an adaptation of the OMB Program
Assessment Rating Tool which is a questionnaire designed to
provide a consistent approach to rating programs across the
Federal government. Tailored for DoD by OUSD (AT&L/DS),
the PART is intended for use by DoD Program Managers as a
means to assess their implementation of MOSA throughout the
acquisition life-cycle.
The MOSA PART is an analytic tool that evaluates responses
to a set of interrelated questions to provide acquisition
program executives with an objective and evidence-based assessment
of the degree that MOSA is implemented in a program. The degree
that MOSA is implemented is presented in terms of five key
MOSA indicators: Enabling Environment, Modular Design, Key
Interfaces, Open Standards, and Conformance.
