Environment (SEE) and other software development tools. The complete set of the software driver technical data and rights are proprietary to Rockwell Collins International. Additionally, the software tools required to maintain the software {3rd Party Tool Kit and the Common Simulation Environment for CAAS) were developed and are owned by Rockwell Collins International. The Software Engineering Environment (SEE), specifically the Apex Environment, Configuration Environment and the Dynamic Object Oriented Requirements System (DOORS) were also developed and are owned by Rockwell Collins International.

The technical data for the existing CAAS and associated software environments and tools will be necessary in order to incorporate software changes and updates required forthese efforts. Rockwell Collins owns the .technical data and tools and is not willing to sell the data and tools to the Government.
