System Acquisition and Product Development (SAPD)
Forum Motivation for the ANPDRS Study Groupfrom
the Spring 2003 SIW

• Explanation Information and data are a
  significant program cost that acquisition
  programs need to actively manage. Work on product
  data representations and information management
  is advancing in major programs (e.g., JSF). The
  need for coupling MS and information management
  with the systems engineering process is apparent.
• Recommendation The SAPD Forum PRP intends to
  formulate and submit a recommendation for a Study
  Group to Assess the Need for Product Data
  Representation Standards, with a first meeting
  targeted for the 2003 Fall workshop.

ANPDRS (Assessment of the Need for Product Data
Representation Standards) Study Group

• Motivation The data required to represent
  systems and products in MS is broad and diverse,
  describing requirements, conceptual and physical
  design, manufacturing means, cost, system
  performance, and the products operational and
  support environment.
• The ANPDRS SG will
• Identify categories of MS needed for product
  development
• Define the forms of needed product data
  representations
• Identify and review existing methods of
  representing product data, including
• Standards produced by recognized national and
  international standards bodies
• Product data representations in use or in
  development by major US international military
  system acquisition programs, MS organizations
  and U.S. international commercial organizations
• Identify significant gaps in the existence of
  product data representation standards
• Survey ongoing activities by other organizations
  to address such gaps

Tasks

• Identify by major category the full range of MS
  applications needed for the development/acquisitio
  n of products.
• Define, in the context of these MS applications,
  the relevant aspects and forms of product data
  representations that might be needed.
• Considering the stated range of MS applications,
  identify and perform a review of existing methods
  of representing product data, including
• Standards produced by recognized national and
  international standards bodies and organizations
  (e.g., ISO, NIST, IEEE, etc.) and
• Product data representations in use or in
  development by
• major US and international military system
  acquisition programs (e.g., Joint Strike Fighter
  (JSF), Future Combat Systems (FCS), DD(X), etc.)
• MS organizations and
• U.S. and international commercial organizations.
• Identify significant gaps in the existence of
  product data representation standards, for which
  having such standards would improve the
  interoperability of system acquisition and
  product development MS applications.
• Survey ongoing activities by other organizations
  to address such gaps.
• If warranted, recommend the establishment of one
  or more SISO Product Development Groups (PDGs) to
  begin formulation of standards within the purview
  of SISO.
