COTS
(kots), n. 1. Commercial off-the-shelf.
Terminology popularized in 1994 within U.S. DoD by
SECDEF Wm. Perry’s “Perry Memo” that changed military
industry purchasing and design guidelines, making
Mil-Specs acceptable only by waiver. COTS is generally
defined for technology, goods and services as: a) using
commercial business practices and specifications, b) not
developed under government funding, c) offered for sale
to the general market, d) still must meet the program
ORD. 2. Commercial business practices include the
accepted practice of customer-paid minor modification to
standard COTS products to meet the customer’s unique
requirements.
—Ant. When applied to the procurement of electronics
for he U.S. Military, COTS is a procurement philosophy
and does not imply commercial, office environment or
any other durability grade. E.g., rad-hard components
designed and offered for sale to the general market are
COTS if they were developed by the company and not
under government funding.
