1.0 INTRODUCTION

1.1 Purpose

The purpose of this effort is to obtain task based systems engineering services that include analysis, engineering and management processes and tools to facilitate the role of the A-10 System Program

Office (SPO) to perform system integration. The A-10 SPO requires Contractor provided analysis and tools to accurately assess, track and prioritize modernization and sustainment requirements, devise and implement integration strategies to achieve the highest attainable level of congruity between all A-

10 aircraft programs. This requires performing dedicated analytical and systems engineering tasks to identify and resolve technical deficiencies, program conflicts, duplicative efforts and inefficiencies to insure that the most efficient weapon system performance and integrated platform configuration management are accomplished to support the A-10 Weapon System.

1.2 Background

The current and anticipated dynamic battlefield environments drive many modernization and sustainment changes to the A-10 legacy aircraft and creates unique requirements to maintain the A-10 as an effective and viable weapon system throughout its life cycle. Modifications affecting all A-10 functional areas and interfaces to include mechanical, structural, electrical, avionics, weapons, support equipment and operational flight programs (OFP), continue to evolve at an unprecedented pace.

Employing experienced, effective and efficient systems engineering and integration practices is crucial to successfully identify and adjudicate the many conflicts associated with executing numerous simultaneous modification and sustainment programs. The systems engineering and integration tasks, defined herein, are critical in supporting the A-10 weapon system and in facilitating the role of the A-10

SPO as a highly successful prime integrator. They will insure that the A-10 fleet remains a viable part of the cohesive, ready, and agile fighting forces that the Air Force, the Joint Force Commander, and the

Nation require.

The goal of the new A-10 SPO Process, System Design and Implementation Support services is twofold:

a. Refine/Develop, map and document standard logistics/engineering processes and procedures and their information technology interfaces for the sustainment of the A-10 in the AF inventory.

b. Further develop standard engineering processes and policy (tools, templates and training) for efficient future acquisition and sustainment of the A-10 aircraft.

1.3 Scope

The efforts described in this PWS establish the systems engineering tasks required to support the A-10

SPO in meeting the needs of the war fighter in a timely and cost effective manor. The objectives and requirements for subject engineering tasks are to facilitate technical analysis required for the A-10 SPO to accomplish efficient integrated systems engineering. Integrated systems engineering is defined as the overarching disciplined and systematic engineering practices that maximize the effectiveness of modernization and sustainment funding to increase weapon system capabilities, reliability, and availability. The over all goal of integrated systems engineering is to most cost effectively keep the A-

10 a viable platform in executing its missions over its lifecycle. To facilitate integrated systems engineering and the A-10 SPO’s role as the system/prime integrator, the tasks in this PWS include identifying new and developing technologies that can support the accomplishment of A-10 missions and either eliminate or minimize operational and/or sustainability gaps. These efforts will help the A-10

SPO meet Air Force goals to deter and defeat adversaries with a credible first look, first shot, first kill capability and to modernize the capabilities of the A-10 fleet to reduce operating costs while attaining desired effects with greater persistence, survivability, longer range, and more versatile payloads.

3.1 Systems Engineering Based Integrated Management

Historically, the A-10 community has discussed, defined, and prioritized capability gaps, requirements and sustainment deficiencies annually at the A-10 Aircraft System Requirements Review Conference

(ASRRC), the combined Air National Guard (ANG) and Air Force Reserve Command (AFRC) Weapons and Tactics Conference (WEPTAC) and the Combat Air Forces Weapons and Tactics Conference

(CAF WEPTAC). Due to organizational changes and other considerations the names of these meetings may change over the next five years. Regardless of the names, the goals of these equivalent meetings are the same. This PWS uses the current names with the understanding that the names may be different over the period of performance of this contractual effort, but the intent and requirements in this PWS remain the same. The Contractor shall perform a comprehensive integrated risk analysis for all current and any anticipated programs by performing the tasks in this section.

3.1.1 De-confliction Matrix Analysis

The Contractor shall:

Gather programs information, format, then populate, update, validate, and analyze the A-10 de-confliction matrix for all A-10 System Program Office (SPO) programs. The matrix shall be used to show the potential conflicts between all on-going efforts, as well as proposed solutions. Conlficts are defined but not limited to, the use of indentical wiring harnesses, circuit breakers, installation areas for all devices including paths for harnnesses, Ethernet addresses and switch ports, 1553 buss addresses and couplers, and RF bandwidths, etc.

Automate the process to automatically note and identify conflicts. This would include such things as writing simple macros to compare each field (d.-p. below) for duplicate (conflicts) entries.

Analyze and compare all of the items in a- p below to determine conflicts, duplicate efforts, or impacts to or with the same support equipment, T.O.s, and other items in the list. The matrix shall be based on the current A-10 de-confliction matrix and include as a minimum, the ability to determine confliction of the following items (CDRL A004):

a. Prime Contractor

b. Status of Modification

c. Description of Modification – provide a brief summary

h. LRU – names and type added, modified and removed

i. Avionics – processor throughput, bus bandwidth, memory, EMI/EMC, etc.

j. Power – delta power usage of equipment removed and/or equipment installed; positive number indicates a net power increase, negative number indicates a power increase

k. Firmware – identify changed, modified or new firmware

l. Software – identify/describe changes to OFP and test equipment

m. Wiring Harness – identify new and modified harnesses

n. Bulkhead/Inline Disconnects – identify by name/# or state none

o. Circuit beaker used

p. Ethernet addresses and switch ports

3.1.2 Avionics System Architecture Integration, Updates and Support

A significant portion of the A-10 allocated baseline is the applicable A-10 DODAF 2.0 architecture compatible views and related information. The views make up the architecture which is a system engineering tool used to track and trace A-10 requirements, identify and track requirement gaps and technical deficiencies as well as to perform systems engineering tasks. One of the most important applications of the requirements gap tracking is to unequivocally tie requirement gaps to mission requirements in order to clearly justify obtaining funding for sustainment and modernization. Several gaps and deficiencies remain to be corrected in the architecture in order to fully apply it as a systems engineering and integration tool.

The A-10 SPO previously used and evaluated Rhapsody and System Architect as potential systems engineering and architecture tools for the A-10. Neither tool was deemed optimal for managing A-10 requirements. As a result, the architectures built in those tools were transferred to another system engineering and architecture development tool called CORE. The A-10 architecture built with and in

CORE consists of an operational, a functional and a physical architecture. All of these architectures require regular updates and corrections to stay viable systems engineering tools. This includes, but is not limited to, identifying and correcting missing or incomplete sections, gaps and deficiencies in all three under lying architectures within the A-10 architecture itself. The tasks in this paragraph focus on identifying, tracking and eliminating gaps and deficiencies both within these architectures themselves and more importantly, within the A-10 weapon system. The intended use of these architectures is as system engineering tools to facilitate the role of the A-10 SPO as prime integrator.

This task involves correcting known gaps and deficiencies in the architecture identified below as well as identifying unknown technical and operational gaps and deficiencies. The Contractor shall review current architecture and requirements products and:

3.1.2.1 Genesys Architecture Database Tool Analysis:

a. Using the Requirements for Architecture System Engineering Tool in Appendix U and the requirements in the following paragraph, accomplish an in-depth analysis as described in 1 – 5 below of the latest available version of the Genesys architecture database tool capabilities.

1. Compare the Genesys architecture database tool capabilities and constraints with

CORE version 8.0 or later with respect to current architecture content, functionality, relationships.

2. Show that the current A-10C architecture information and structure, references and links from lower levels currently also shown in higher levels are automatically maintained when transferring architecture data from CORE to Genesys.

3. Determine feasibility, time, and cost for transferring the A-10 CORE V9.0 or later version of the A-10 architecture into Genesys to include all of its current functionality and future needs of the A-10 architecture and systems engineering requirements.

4. Determine and demonstrate Genesys’ ability to provide readable block diagrams as documented in paragraph 3.1.2.2a below.

5. Clearly demonstrate and compare functionality, uses and constraints using both tools with the A-10 operational, functional, and physical architectures. (CDRL A004, A008)

b. If a determination is made to migrate to Genesys (upon Government approval) based on the results of paragraph 3.1.2.1a, the requirements identified in paragraph 3.1.2.3 a-k below shall be performed in the Genesys architecture database tool.

3.1.2.2 Alternate Database Tool Determination:

a. If it is determined that the current or the next release of Genesys cannot cost effectively meet the architectural and systems engineering requirements of the A-10 weapon system per paragraph

3.1.2.1, and upon approval by the Government, analyze other current commercially available

DODAF 2.0 or later compliant architecture tools (excluding Rhapsody and System Architect).

b. If a determination is made to migrate to an alternative architecture database tool (upon

Government approval), the requirements identified in paragraph 3.1.2.3 a-k below shall be performed in the selected architecture tool.

3.1.2.3 Architecture Updates, Integration and Support: The requirements identified in a-k below shall be performed utilizing CORE V9.0 or later.

a. Update and publish all the currently used views with block diagrams with the improvements made in CORE V9.0 or later. (CDRL A004, A007) Block diagrams views include the ability to:

1. Select which blocks will be displayed in a particular view for all diagram views.

2. Select the color of individual blocks or groups of blocks, or otherwise improve the readability of the graphics generated in the architecture views provided to the users.

3. Select which connections or paths are displayed in a particular view.

4. Combine multiple connections into one nameable connection.

5. Edit the paths of specific connections so that they do not run on top of each other.

b. Evaluate the weapons requirements in the A-10 SV-8 and SV-9 and all other sources as required to determine all related requirement gaps and the need to update the A-10 Electronic Warfare

System (EWS) CDD or A-10 SPO approved equivalent. If required, update the A-10 EWS CDD or current A-10 SPO approved equivalent. This will require maintaining two separate baseline architectures, one that can be accessed without a security clearance and one that can only be accessed with a security clearance. The architecture that includes the EWS is classified and must be stored accordingly and separately from the non-classified baseline architecture that does not include the classified portions of the EWS. (CDRLs A004, A008)

c. Identify technical and operational gaps and deficiencies, recommend and implement solutions that support full requirement gaps and deficiencies traceability from A-10 architecture products through to the Avionics System Segment Specifications (AS3), A-10 end item specifications, interface documents, and design and development documents. This will require the improvement of the process and writing additional scripts within the architecture database tool to detect, clearly identify, and organize requirements gaps. (CDRLs A004, A008)

d. Analyze, identify, improve or create new views, implement and demonstrate specific views requirements among the A-10 stakeholders to ensure that the architecture supports the stakeholders’ needs and requirements. (CDRL A004, A007) The stakeholders, listed below, are:

1. MAJCOM requirements views for requirements traceability to support and justify funding requests.

2. Program Management programmatic views for hardware modification milestone and related views.

3. A-10 SPO and 309th systems engineering for OA and OUE for temporary hardware modifications related views.

e. Identify new requirements gaps and technical deficiencies from both of the annual WEPTACs and

ASRRC prioritized requirements, and ensure the definitions are clearly defined, accurate, complete, compatible and easily found and accessed within the architecture baseline data contained in the database tool architecture databases, the associated views, and their DOORS and HTML outputs. (CDRLs A007, A008)

f. Generate the Suites 8, 9, and 10 architecture views including importing or generating the required data from and/or to the respective AS3, Hardware System Segment Specifications (HS3) and

Electrical Interface Control Documents (EICD) information in compliance with DoD Architecture

Framework (DODAF) 2.0. (CDRL A008)

g. Identify and generate architecture baseline content for planned OAs and OUEs in conjunction with the 309th Software Maintenance Group and/or the applicable Contractor. “Consumer” architecture content is defined as those views and products (and the underlying architectural data) that are required to facilitate the most efficient development and implementation of hardware and software

OA and OUE candidate solutions as part of the OA, OUE or similar efforts by the 309th Software
