STP 4-06 Model-Based Technical Data in Procurement, 3D PDF Technology Data Demonstration Project. Phase 1 Summary

Abstract

The goal of the 3D PDF technical data demonstration (an adjunct R&D task under STP 4-06, Model-Based Technical Data in Procurement) is to help DLA move toward the use of more modern technical data in its daily procurement activities and influence DoD to adopt 3D PDF data files as a means of transferring those data. The use of modern 3D data would give DLA a more agile, more reliable, and less costly way to have parts built to support America's warfighters. The project's objective is to assess DLA's capability to acquire Class IX parts using modern technical data recorded in a 3D PDF file with an attached STEP file. To accomplish this objective, the demonstration will exercise DLA's current procurement process to buy real parts in an operational environment. Phase 1 of the project, which is the focus of this report, concentrates on establishing the groundwork and performing the planning actions for parts procurement during the follow-on phases of the 3D PDF technical data demonstration.
