Purpose: Recently, many quality issues are aroused in military forces, such as failures in K-series weapons, combat boots defects and 40mm ammunition explosion accident. To address these problems, the one and only government defense quality assurance agency, DTaQ(Defense Agency for Technology & Quality) tried to improve many quality assurance procedures and introduced new systems such as MRA(Manufacturing Readiness Assessment), TRA(Technology Readiness Assessment), and etc. However, as the amount of war supplies increasing every year, the resource(budget and manpower) for quality assurance is limited. Therefore, DTaQ had difficulty to handle the issue efficiently and effectively, and we propose the method to address this problem. Methods: The most popular quality assurance technique is a sampling method, in this research, we first review the many sampling techniques and compare the strength and weakness of each method. After then, we selected the most appropriate sampling techniques and applied the procedures in combat force support material and ammunition areas. Results: We can reduce the number of samples dramatically, thus the required amount of labor time and money can be saved. Also, the new sampling technique enforces the supplier to produce the product which meets the target value(desirable value). Conclusion: We can reduce the number of samples dramatically, thus the required amount of labor time and money can be saved. Also, the new sampling technique enforces the supplier to produce the product which meets the target value(desirable value). Lastly, since the new sampling method requires many numerical calculations, we developed a simple android OS smart-phone application which can be used easily in field.

현대 무기체계는 전자장비 탑재의 비중이 늘어나고 있으며, 그에 따른 소프트웨어 탑재비중도 늘어나고 있다. 소프트웨어 비중이 높아감에 따라 그 품질관리와 개발방법에 대한 관심도 높아졌다. 물리적으로 가시화 된 기계체계와 달리 논리적으로 비가시화 된 소프트웨어는 결함에 노출될 경우 복구의 어려움, 재사용의 어려움, 자원의 낭비와 같은 위험에 놓여 질 수 있다. 미국의 경우 국방 소프트웨어의 개발과 품질관리를 위한 별도의 프로세스를 연구하고 적용하는 노력을 통해 CMM(Capability Maturity Model)을 만드는 성과도 거두었다. 우리나라 또한 국제표준을 바탕으로 국방 소프트웨어 개발 및 품질관리에 대한 기준을 만들어 활용하고 있다. 그러나 소프트웨어의 발전 속도에 맞추어 기준을 변경해야 함에도 아직 기초수준에 머무르고 있다는 지적이 있다. 소프트웨어 발전 속도에 비해 기준이 낮다면, 자원 재사용 비용 및 복구비용이 기하급수적으로 늘어난다. 본 논문에서는 CMM의 소프트웨어 테스트 파생형인 TMMi(Test Maturity Model-integration)을 통해 국방 소프트웨어 테스트 절차 발전 방안에 대해 논의하고, 국방 소프트웨어 품질관리에 대한 청사진을 제시하고자 한다.

Purpose: This study analyzes the characteristics of the Quality Management performed by SMEs in the Defense Industry in supply chains and analyzes the effect of the continuous improvement activities based on cooperation. Especially, for Military Supplies, the suitability of products is usually decided by judging their conformity to the specification, and from this structural characteristic, this study would analyze the structural relationship of systematic improvement activities with Supply Chain Quality Management(SCQM) and Business Performance(BP). Methods: Continuous improvement activities(CI) have significance as the driver force for the promotion of Quality Management. Thus, this study analyzed the causal relationships from the perspective of the process among CI, SCQM and BP. For an analysis of the structural characteristics and causal relationships among the constituents, AMOS was used, and 297 companies in the Defense Industry were utilized as samples. Results: It turned out that CI had significant impacts on Management Infra(MGT_Infra), Process Management(PM), Human Resources Management(HRM) and Communication(COMU) and had an indirect impact on the enterprises' financial performance through the parameters of HRM and Communication. Meanwhile, it turned out that between CI and non-financial performance, there was a direct effect, and there was also an indirect effect through the variables of the Management Infra and Communication. Conclusion: It turned out that CI had a positive effect on SCQM as a proactive driver and that they had significant relationships with BP(financial, Non-financial), both financial performance and non-financial performance. However, PM did not have a significant relationship of effect with BP because of the character appearing by the evaluation method of military supplies for the conformity to the specifications.
