Engineering & Analysis

Abstract

The Engineering and Analysis effort provides essential BMDS ground and flight test event planning, execution, and evaluation activities for each test event: Recurring Accomplishments: - Designing test architecture, defining test objectives and evaluation criteria, defining target requirements, and generating ground and flight test scenarios appropriate to the data collection requirements to assess BMDS performance and anchor M&S. - Producing the threat data for BMDS ground and flight tests. - Coordinating with BMDS OTA to address, coordinate, and disposition test issues to achieve closure through recommended action plans. - Delivering HWIL M&S integration test cases. - Conducting M&S HWIL Integration Benchmark and integrating the BMDS HWIL M&S framework with MDA and non-MDA Elements into the test event BMDS architecture. - Integrating, testing, functionally qualifying, and delivering end-to-end BMDS simulations supporting ground test missions. - Analyzing System-level interoperability. - Conducting modeling and technical analysis for Combatant Command wargames and exercises. - Utilizing M&S for pre-test assessment, post-test review, and M&S updates. - Providing test configuration management; risk assessments; and anomaly/deficiency review, assessment and closure. - Analyzing test results to identify verification and validation data collection shortfalls and reassigning objectives to future test events as required. - Documenting BMDS test observations for system-level test anomalies and coordinating the resulting BMDS Discrepancy Reports within the Failure Reporting, Analysis, and Corrective Action System (FRACAS) - Providing the Quick Look Brief, Mission Data Review (MDR), and Executive MDR. IMTP and infrastructure tasks include: - Providing long-range BMDS IMTP planning and integration strategies related to overarching BMDS analysis product integration. - Upgrading test analysis tools in concert with the BMDS evolution (e.g., Modular Analysis and Reporting Suite (MARS)) to enhance analysis capability and efficiency. - Populating the MARS database with data from the most recently completed tests to support as-built analysis and capability assessments. - Providing engineering analysis process software to include System Coordination and Observation Reporting Environment (SCORE), Software Change Analysis Review Environment (SCARE), File Manager (FileMan), and ManPower Loading (MPL). - Incrementally improving and providing infrastructure, software, and MDA/IA compliance for the RApid Scenario Prototyping (RaSP) capability. Specific and/or unique accomplishments to each FY are as follows:
