TACP-M DE Roadmap

LATERNOW NEXT

Activities:

• Initial planning phase

• Building initial system architecture

Objectives:

• Establish DE

Strategy

Activities

• Develop SysML

Modelling Style Guide

• Transition to Cameo

Objectives:

Create 80% solution of one system

Activities

• Create full model of

TACP Family of Systems

Objectives:

• Create a full IDE

(Integrated Digital Environment)

CUI

How is TACP going digital?

• May provide a SysML model as part of the Request for Proposal (RFP), along with RFP documents, will give industry greater context of what Govt is requesting. Not a requirement.

• Template set up for vendor feedback that facilitates what information is desired

• Contractors providing their proposals, including potential updates to the SysML model, will give Govt greater context of their design, easier understanding of their design, allow for requirement traceability, reduce time on proposal review, and more

MCS-U GRA/GRM

GRA- Government Reference Architecture GRM – Government Reference Model

GRA

• Provide Industry with greater information from an authoritative source of truth than what can be derived from just documents

• Program Context

• System Context

• System Use Cases

• System Requirements

• Requirements Traceability

• Contractor Solution Space

• More

CUI

Prospective Industry Solutions

DE portion of the Prototype Design Phase:

• Create a Cameo SysML digital solution/model of the system that is compatible with the PMO reference architecture

• Dedicated SysML modeler/support that will support periodic digital model reviews

• Discuss roadmap for transition from SysML 1.6 to SysML 2.0

CUI

Summary

• TACP-M PMO is in the initial stages of implementing DE into the acquisition process

• The PMO plans to supply a Government Reference Model (GRM) in Cameo 2021 using SysMLv1.6

• Contractors will be expected to use and update the GRM to show how their blackbox solution interfaces with the Government Reference Architecture.
