3.10 Configuration Management (CM) Support

NAVSEA SOW:

This functional area consists of applying engineering and analytical disciplines to identify, document, and verify the functional, performance, and physical characteristics of systems, to control changes and nonconformance, and to track actual configurations of systems and platforms.

What:

ITE will provide physics based modeling services and software tools, identify, document, and verify the functional, performance, and physical characteristics of systems, to control changes and nonconformance, and to track actual configurations of systems and platforms.

How:

• ITE will draw on its experience in supporting NAVSEA, Carderock ( Philadelphia ) and ONR in creating advanced modeling techniques for the design, verification and validation of designs based on current work on-going with ONR and its Ship Smart System Design (S3D) program.
  
• ITE will use physics modeling and engineering analysis services to complement the engineering efforts of NSWC and their support contractors. This obviates the requirement that NSWC purchase and maintain software, though they may. The work can be provided quickly on site but, even more effectively be performed by ITE off-site as was done on the LPD17 Program where nine major vital systems were modeled and analyzed using ITE services.
  
• ITE will draw on its unique and extensive experience in Product Data Integration and Exchange gained under the NSRP and DD(X) programs.
