Establishment of the Program Manager for Avionics.

Abstract

This report establishes the background from which the concept of Program Management for common avionics emerged. The Carrier Aircraft Inertial Navigation System (CAINS) Program is used as a case study that ultimately developed the idea of the Program Manager for Avionics as a 'better way of doing things.' The report also deals with what Program Management of common avionics is all about. The report delineates the mission, scope, operating relationships, organization and resources, authority, accountability and responsibility of the Program Manager for Avionics. Finally, the study reports on the actions that have taken place implementing the Program Manager for Avionics, and identifies actions that still need to be done with the author's recommendations for areas of further improvement.
