Abstract

The integrated defense acquisition, technology, and logistics (IDAT&L) life cycle management system (LCMS) is currently a document-centric process, i.e., the IDAT&L LCMS process is a document-based approach where engineering strategies, plans, and design documents are manually generated, maintained, and sustained. This approach causes unnecessary time spent on correlating and managing interrelated system documentation. In addition, a change to the system could easily be miscommunicated or not relayed to another engineering group, e.g., test and evaluation. Hence the program experiences delay in the schedule and additional cost occurs due to test plan and execution rework as a result of test criteria not met. This paper addresses benefits of applying a model-based system engineering approach to the IDAT&L LCMS process and how it promotes a cross-engineering collaborative environment.
