本文件适用于商业、军事和航天市场电子设备和系统中COTS组件的集成和管理计划的制定；以及其他希望使用本文件的ADHP市场。在本文件中，COTS组件被视为电子组件，如印刷线路组件、继电器、磁盘驱动器、LCD矩阵、VME电路卡、服务器、打印机、笔记本电脑等。COTS组件有多种分类方法，包括以下范围:范围的一端是COTS组件，其设计、内部零件2、材料、，配置控制、可追溯性、可靠性和鉴定方法至少部分受ADHP客户（单独或集体）控制或影响。这方面的一个例子是VME电路卡组件。 另一端是COTS组件，其设计、内部零件、材料、配置控制和鉴定方法不受ADHP客户（单独或集体）的任何控制或控制。例如，针对ADHP以外的行业的磁盘驱动器。计划所有人必须（1）审查并了解所有已接收COTS组件3的设计、内部零件、材料、配置控制、可靠性和鉴定方法，以及它们在预期系统和环境中应用的能力；（2） 识别风险，并在必要时，（3）采取额外措施，以减轻与ADHP系统中COTS组件的性能和可靠性相关的风险。

This document applies to the development of Plans for integrating and managing COTS assemblies in electronic equipment and Systems for the commercial, military, and space markets; as well as other ADHP markets that wish to use this document.For purposes of this document, COTS assemblies are viewed as electronic assemblies such as printed wiring assemblies, relays, disk drives, LCD matrices, VME circuit cards, servers, printers, laptop computers, etc. There are many ways to categorize COTS assemblies1, including the following spectrum:At one end of the spectrum are COTS assemblies whose design, internal parts2, materials, configuration control, traceability, reliability, and qualification methods are at least partially controlled, or influenced, by ADHP customers (either individually or collectively). An example at this end of the spectrum is a VME circuit card assembly.At the other end of the spectrum are COTS assemblies whose design, internal parts, materials, configuration control, and qualification methods are not controlled, or controllable, in any way by ADHP customers (either individually or collectively). An example is a disk drive targeted for an industry other than ADHP use. It is critical for the Plan owner to (1) review and understand the design, internal parts, materials, configuration control, reliability and qualification methods of all ¿¿¿as-received¿¿¿ COTS assemblies3, and their capabilities with respect to their application in the intended System and environment; (2) identify risks, and where necessary, (3) take additional action to mitigate the risks associated with the performance and reliability of the COTS assembly in the ADHP system.
