PTES System Development Baseline, Integration, and Test
Abstract
Integrates all PTES segments, including executing government-led end-to end tests of the complete PTES system until FOC. Includes Development Test/Operational Test (DT/OT), conducted by the 45th Test Squadron (TS) and STAR Delta 12 / 4th Test and Evaluation Squadron. Management of the PTES technical baseline through acquiring, designing, testing, and integrating key system segments as well as external interfaces as part of the larger SATCOM enterprise. Supports the Joint Satellite Engineering Center (JSEC) and Joint Interoperability Command (JITC) to ensure risk-reduction is demonstrated, system interfaces are validated, and data needed to support cybersecurity system authorization and interoperability certifications will be obtained. Manage system capability development hand-in-hand with operator involvement to provide information for technical, integration, and programmatic decisions. Includes additional studies and proof of concept demonstrations to inform commercial requirements, build out needed improvements to the MMS, and establish needed interoperability with commercial systems required to support Joint Force needs. Tobyhanna Army Depot will be responsible for key loading and initialization of PTW capable modems.
