Naval weapons systems of the Republic of Korea are acquired through the Defense Planning Management System. Recently, acquisition of some naval ships have been delayed, and the causes of the delays have been recognized as inappropriate project management at the Execution Phase. However, we argue that the delay problem in naval ships acquisition should be approached, with due regard for the entire Defense Planning Management System. That is, We should try to investigate from Planning Phase to those of Programming, Budgeting and Execution Phases. Therefore, in this study, we investigated the actual cases of the delay in naval acquisition at all phases of the Defense Planning Management System. Based on the investigation, we tried to identify the naval ship Acquisition Delay Factors and find out the Weights of those factors. As the next step, we calculated the Influence Measures on the naval missions, including the Cost of Naval Capability Gap derived from the delays in acquisition of naval ships. As a final step, we calculated the Acquisition Delay Measures based on the interrelationship between the Acquisition Delay Factors and the Influence Measures. Then we evaluated and analyzed what the results stand for. Finally, we made suggestions for future improvement. The improvement suggestions we made for preventing delay in acquisition of naval ships in this study are as follows. First, we need a shift in perception. It is necessary to measure the Acquisition Delay Factors in acquiring naval ships and manage them from the Planning Phase. Second, resolution must be concerted efforts. All relevant agencies, not just a few, should work together to resolve the problems of acquisition delay. Third, analysis must be based on the accumulation of data. This allows the elaborating of naval ship Acquisition Delay Factors and Delay Measures. If this research method is applied to other military weapons systems in the future, we may be able to not just identify the Acquisition Delay Factors in acquisition of other military weapons systems, but also pursue improvement in those cases.

우리 해군은 함정 제품모델(Naval Ship Product Model, NSPM)을 중심으로 하는 협업 제품개발 환경 구축을 통해 설계 데이터의 재사용성과 M&S의 활용도를 높이고 있다. 그 결과 설계결과의 신뢰성이 높아지고 있으며, 이를 활용한 운영, 건조 시뮬레이션을 통해 소요군의 요구사항이 면밀히 반영되도록 하는 연구도 진행 중에 있다. 이에 따라 설계 데이터의 DB 구축 및 그 품질에 대한 중요성이 부각되고 있으나, 그와 관련된 연구는 초기상태에 머물러 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 저자들의 선행연구 결과인 함정 제품모델의 품질검증 방법론에 기초하여 함정 제품모델을 구성하고 있는 형상요소의 구체적인 품질검증 방안과 이를 자동화하기 위한 연구를 수행하였다. 함정 제품모델 데이터 중 상대적으로 중요하며, 검증과정에 많은 시간이 소요되고 있는 선각모델을 사례연구 대상으로 정의하였으며, 자동차산업에서 사용되고 있는 제품데이터품질(Product Data Quality, PDQ)을 형상검증 기준으로 활용하였다. 최종적으로 선각모델의 형상 품질검증을 위한 기준과 알고리즘을 제안하였으며 이에 기반 한 초기 시스템을 개발하였다.
