Resources
Abstract
BMDS Target Resources consist of two sub-elements: Systems Engineering/Program Management and Logistics. Systems Engineering/Program Management provides technical direction to meet Target Program requirements while balancing cost, schedule, performance, and risk. It conducts functional requirements allocation to product lines, defines product line specifications/interfaces, performs configuration and data management, and follows guidelines for design reviews. It performs target system analysis to verify system performance, defines target program baselines, controls flight test configurations, and conducts pre and post-flight analysis. It identifies treaty and environmental issues and develops plans for issue resolution. It provides Quality, Safety, and Mission Assurance operations to ensure compliance with Missile Defense Agency requirements for design, test, manufacturing, quality, safety and reliability to ensure high quality products are delivered for test events. It also includes Single Stimulation Framework (SSF)/Objective Stimulation Framework (OSF) compatible Modeling and Simulation execution and improvements to evolve TC Modeling and Simulation capability; trajectory analyses; signature analyses and characterization; studies to assess alternative target and platform solutions; assessments of risk management; and design approval of government furnished equipment. BMDS Targets Program Logistics support provides target storage, aging surveillance, and transportation of TC hardware in support of BMDS testing. Also included are integrated logistics support for facilities, inventory maintenance, spare parts, aging surveillance, disposal, special testing for rocket motor propellants, and other hazardous material handling. This task manages and oversees accountability of all government furnished equipment and contractor acquired property. Logistics also provides common support equipment for launch vehicles, MBRVs, countermeasures, and all up integrated target rounds. It also supports launch site activations through the transportation of support equipment to various test sites.
