It was later designated to be a Variable Quantity (VQ) ACAT-5 effort on 30 April 2014 and tailored to move directly to the Final Investment Decision (FID) of the Acquisition Management System (AMS) on 16 September 2015. The AMEN II program requirements are presented in the AMEN II final Program Requirements Document (fPRD).
