Unclassified/FOUO/Procurement Sensitive Table of Contents

1.0 Scope

The scope of this PWS is to provide support services to CECOM SEC/IEW&S/S&ME - (ME) (formerly known as SEC/ISR/ACS/Avionics) Branch in the following:

· Provide system/software engineering and integration support for Aviation Systems, Tactical Air Traffic Control, Position/Navigation/Terrain systems, and Command and Control systems.

· Provide support for Post Deployment and Post Production (PPSS/PDSS) activities for the Platform Mission Software Equipment Branch systems described in Appendix C System Description.

Provide MIL-STD-1553 engineering, validation and testing, and system integration 1.1

1.1 Background

1.1.1 Organization

The Software Engineering Center (SEC), PMESB is responsible for providing primary system/software engineering support to aviation navigation, communications, ground support avionics, command and control, and tactical air traffic control systems during their development and integration into weapon systems. Also, SEC ME is the leading Army Tri-Service organization for MIL-STD-1553 engineering, validation and test, and system integration support.

1.1.2 Mission Areas

1.1.2.1 Post Production/Post Deployment Software Support

SEC PMESB is responsible for the Post Production/Post Deployment Software Support (PPSS/PDSS) of 13 avionics systems. This support is essential in maintaining readiness for today’s modern aircraft. The software maintenance entails making changes to software, testing the changes, and releasing the software to the field promptly. SEC PMESB is also responsible for the configuration management of all associated software and documentation for each of these systems. The SEC PMESB provides PPSS/PDSS support to systems sponsored by the following organizations:

Support Systems Organization Sponsors

PEO Solider, PM Air Warrior (AW)

1.1.2.2 System/Software Engineering and Integration

The SEC PMESB is responsible for providing system/software engineering support for avionics systems throughout their life cycle. Upon development, the SEC PMESB is involved with the integration of avionics systems into weapon/aircraft systems, such as the Improved Cargo Helicopter (ICH), HH-60L (MEDEVAC), RC-12 Guardrail Common Sensor, OH-58D, AH-64A/D and SOA aircraft (MH-47E and MH-60L). Support includes requirement’s definition, analysis, design, and interface control working groups, technical interchange, test planning, and document generation/review, including the preparation or validation of MIL-STD-1553 Multiplex Interface Control Document (MICD) and Software/Interface requirements documents.

1.1.2.3 MIL-STD-1553

SEC PMESB provides engineering experience and expertise on all aspects of MIL-STD-1553 matters, ranging from participating in the writing of MIL-STD-1553 requirements to providing avionics maintenance test systems. The Validation and Test Facility (VALFAC) is a test laboratory that provides independent MIL-STD-1553 Validation and Verification test services for DoD MIL-STD-1553 subsystems in accordance with Tri-Service test standards. VALFAC will enable US Army and other DoD components to continue ensuring Contractor Furnished Equipment (CFE) and Government Furnished Equipment (GFE) meet the requirements of governing communications standards.
