What Is The Added Do-178b Cost? |
|
Answer» DO-178B is often THOUGHT to add 50-200% to avionics SOFTWARE development. In reality, actual ADDITIONAL DO-178B cost should be on the order of 25%-40%, presuming BASIC high-reliability (SEI CMM and CMMI Level 2 or 3) software engineering principles are used from the onset. Our MEMBERS can show how to minimize avionics software development costs. DO-178B is often thought to add 50-200% to avionics software development.
