Manufacturing and Producibility
Abstract
This activity supports a system-level manufacturing and producibility team to address materials, key component, and subsystem design and development to reduce cycle time, part count, and risk. This activity also supports a system-level reliability team to reduce risk of test failures and performance shortcomings and drive reliability into system and component designs. - Assess BMDS industrial base and determine critical manufacturing technologies -- Conduct assessments of critical component supply base and update critical technologies database -- Collaborate with national security space components on investment strategies for critical technologies -- Develop engineering management tool to characterize industrial base risks. - Utilize supply chain risk identification and mitigation tracking system to mitigate manufacturing supply issues for critical components - Assess the effectiveness of reliability programs for each MDA Product (Radar, Launcher, Missile/Interceptor, etc.) to achieve/sustain required reliability. - Perform reliability, composite risk, and probability of mission success assessments for flight tests. - Identify failure trends/modes and evaluate impact on the Probability of Mission Success; evaluate potential corrective actions -- Provide element/program scorecard data to support reliability evaluations/assessments. - With Logistics Support, develop MDA Reliability and Logistic Policies/Plans to promote an integrated Sustainability efforts - Ensure that BMDS products have achieved the required maturity in Reliability, Availability, and Maintainability (RAM) to support the transition from MDA to the appropriate service organization; provide RAM expertise as needed to Element Program Offices. - Provide updates to MDA RAM policy and guidance.
