When shown on an NPV-2 Programme Timelines, an Increment Milestone appears as follows:

The following relationships are of importance to an Increment Milestone:

• Milestone Sequence relationships link an Increment Milestone to milestone elements that are predecessors and successors to that Increment Milestone. The predecessor and successor elements can be Actual Project Milestone, Deployed Milestone, Increment Milestone, No Longer Used Milestone and Out Of Service Milestone elements.

The following sections provide information about how an Increment Milestone is used in the model.

Only the UPDM elements that can be created from all UPDM elements ( Alias, Definition, Information and Metadata).
