Abstract
A study of the benefits and character of a lean space initiative, complementary to the LAI,
was sponsored by the Air Force Space and Missile Center and Mantech last summer. This
nine month “Quick Look” identified potential stakeholders and surveyed them as to
perceived benefits, the priorities for research topics, willingness to participate, and
appropriate relationship to the LAI program. Since many of the principals are already
partners in LAI, there was clear indication that “lean space” could benefit by and add to the
data base for LAI and that it should be incorporated as a sector in the Phase two activity of
the latter. These results were briefed to General DeKok, commander of SMC, and his staff
on July 18, receiving strong endorsement and directions to proceed toward a start date of
September 1, 1997, with the need to take the necessary steps to coordinate with and obtain
LAI stakeholder approval.
