Military Products from Commercial Lines, Volume 4 - Lessons Learned

Abstract

The United States Air Force has contracted with TRW Avionics and System Division (ASD) to develop the processes and products necessary to produce military products in a commercial manufacturing facility. This project is named Military Products from Commercial Lines (MPCL). A key component of PCL was the development of a world class Computer Integrated Manufacturing (CIM) system to integrate the military design environment with the commercial manufacturing environment. Under PCL, a Manufacturing Infrastructure (MI) Integrated Product Team (IPT) was given the responsibility for developing the IM system. This system was designed to facilitate the production of military electronics on commercial lines.
