MEMORANDUM FOR: Chief, Development Branch, P&DS
SUBJECT:
NPIC/P&DS/D/6-1424
15 June 1966
PAR 242, Color Demonstration Materials
has presented to me several arguments
s
pat concerning PAR 242.
\,11/
1. "If_NPIC had been more definitive in stating exactly what was
required could have done the job differently."
2. The original study (PAR 213) is outdated, not complete and not
good enough for briefing experts already working in color. (It is
historical now; it only shows what work in certain areas has been done.)
Il
3. 17-Is not aware that they did a poor job; they duplicated
according o their own standards and also printed what they thought NPIC
wanted."
4. If NPIC would have stood the expense, IIII would have printed
five or six times as many items, then selected those few that would have
been closest to the NPIC requirements."
and
5. "Any more work required by NPIC will cost additional funds since
considers the completed work to be satisfactory under the contract
according to their understanding of the requirement."
6. "The briefing material and the study (PAR 213)
for general basic information and not presented as an up-to-date
study, (as stated in paragraph 2. above)'.'
should be used only

1. If we could get to outline "their understanding" of the project,
we may find some use for the material (although I doubt this).

also leveled a charge that many of the old PARs
under were not up to NPIC expectations because so little effort
had been made to hammer out the exact details of what was expected, all
they got was criticism. From now on all efforts would receive
detailedagreements. He said1 lis not like) in which they
played the major part in determining feasibility, etc. (It is interesting
to note that NPIC long ago had pegged this problem area, but at that time
was reluctant to vie as being much different than
in-so-far as playing the leading role.)

3. I don't believe we will gain anything but animosity if we attempt
to makelIprovide better materials at no further costs. It would also
not be timely since there will probably now be little call for formal
briefing of PAR 213. 1 'will stick by the people who made the
materials. Even though I'm sure they see some places where they are
culpable, they are not going to face with the charge.
4. I don't think the project is worth wasting any more time on; it
cost us Even if perfected the briefing material would not be
much in demand at this late date.
