The Standards Viewpoint (StdV) StdV-2 contains expected changes in technology-related standards, operational standards, or business standards and conventions, which are documented in the StdV-1 model. The forecast for evolutionary changes in the standards need to be correlated against the time periods mentioned in the:
- SV-8 Systems Evolution Description
- SvcV-8 Services Evolution Description
- SV-9 Systems Technology & Skills Forecast
- SvcV-9 Services Technology & Skills Forecast models
Guide: DoDAF Architecture Framework Version 2.02 – Page 200
A StdV-2 is a detailed description of emerging standards relevant to the systems, operational, and business activities covered by the Architectural Description. The forecast should be tailored to focus on areas that are related to the purpose for which a given Architectural Description is being built, and should identify issues that affect the architecture. A StdV-2 complements and expands on the StdV-1 “Standards Profile” model and should be used when more than one emerging standard time-period is applicable to the architecture. One of the prime purposes of this model is to identify critical technology standards, their fragility, and the impact of these standards on the future development and maintainability of the architecture and its constituent elements.
The intended usage of the StdV-2 includes:
- Forecasting future changes in standards (informing project strategy).
DoD Information Technology Standards and Profile Registry (DISR):
DoD Information Technology Standards and Profile Registry (DISR) (Secured) Online repository for a minimal set of primarily commercial IT standards. The DISR can be used to populate the Standards models (StdV-1 and StdV-2) of the Architecture. Conversely, the Standards Models can identify additional or new standards that need to be added to DISR.

AcqTips:
- The DoDAF descriptions in this website are very generic and are mostly taken from the DoDAF Architecture Framework website. Make sure you visit the actual website for the most update information and a more thorough explanation of each viewpoint.
- DoDAF Version 1.0, although outdated, has some good examples on how to construct AV’s, OV’s, and SV’s.
