NAVAIR's Coast-to-Coast Support of the E-2C Hawkeye Using Distributed TSP: The Beginning

Abstract

This article discusses the Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) distributed team that became an example of how projects can work together remotely and be successful. This was accomplished through the use of common processes extended to multiple, distributed teams, their coaches, and the tools used to automate those processes. The other vital area addressed was the organizational cultures to be connected. This meant an important understanding of each other's assumptions, values, and styles needed to happen. This article is filled with observations and lessons learned from team members, team coaches, and organizational facilitators on the multi-site virtual merging of NAVAIR E-2C Hawkeye software developers at Patuxent River, MD with F-14D software developers at Point Mugu, CA.
