Attention acquisition workforce personnel! DoD Best Practices Clearinghouse.The DoD Best Practices Clearinghouse (BPCh) is being established to provide a single source to identify, select, and implement validated val·i·date tr.v. val·i·dat·ed, val·i·dat·ing, val·i·dates 1. To declare or make legally valid. 2. To mark with an indication of official sanction. 3. acquisition-related practices for specific program needs. With sponsorship from the assistant secretary of defense for network information integration and the acting under secretary of defense (acquisition, technology and logistics), the BPCh will provide information on OSD (1) (On-Screen Display) An on-screen control panel for adjusting monitors and TVs. The OSD is used for contrast, brightness, horizontal and vertical positioning and other monitor adjustments. best practices. The BPCh consists of an integrated set of processes, tools, data, and people to maintain a continuously improving resource of best practice information. Its concept revolves around the ability to distill dis·till v. 1. To subject a substance to distillation. 2. To separate a distillate by distillation. 3. To increase the concentration of, separate, or purify a substance by distillation. information about practices--lessons learned, research reports, measurement data--into a relatively small profile that is easy to comprehend and manipulate manipulate To cause a security to sell at an artificial price. Although investment bankers are permitted to manipulate temporarily the stock they underwrite, most other forms of manipulation are illegal. , while maintaining connectivity to the source material. Successful practice implementation depends heavily on the target environment. While the BPCh will be publicly available for anonymous use, users may register a profile of their preferences and/or a collection of profiles that describe their programs, enabling the BPCh to filter out processes that are not applicable. The BPCh will be a useful resource for capturing information about the characteristics of practices and for supporting practice selection. It is a combination of processes, personnel, and information technology that interacts with its community to ensure accuracy and satisfaction. It is also integrated with the expertise resident in the other major DoD-sponsored knowledge systems (AT & L Knowledge Sharing System, Acquisition Community Connection, and Defense Acquisition Guide The introduction to this article provides insufficient context for those unfamiliar with the subject matter. Please help [ improve the introduction] to meet Wikipedia's layout standards. You can discuss the issue on the talk page. ). An initial BPCh prototype is being demonstrated at the April 2005 System and Software Technology Conference. An advanced prototype for limited operational evaluation The test and analysis of a specific end item or system, insofar as practicable under Service operating conditions, in order to determine if quantity production is warranted considering: a. the increase in military effectiveness to be gained; and b. is scheduled for demonstration at the National Defense Industrial Association Systems Engineering Conference in October 2005, with full online system operation and public access planned for fall of 2006.
