T1A1 - Integrating Systems Engineering and Earned Value ManagementProcess improvements to integrate Systems Engineering (SE) with Earned Value Management (EVM) at Northrop Grumman Integrated Systems include alignment with national standards and achieving Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI) goals. Performance-based earned value, consistent with the standards, is achieved by integrating technical performance measures (TPM) and requirements-based planning with EVM. Digital product simulation can enable the new processes and cost-effective integration of cost, schedule and technical objectives by providing TPMs and accelerated requirements validation. This session will explore the process improvements and challenges to implementation. |

T1P1 - Safety & Airworthiness Simulation: Technical Strategies & DiscussionWith safety and airworthiness of paramount importance, any initiative that seeks to change existing processes in order to advance cost, schedule, efficiency, performance or other objectives will find scant acceptance unless the fidelity of safety and airworthiness data and results are strictly safeguarded and preserved. Case studies and discussion will highlight advances in this domain. |

M1P3 - Digital Product Simulation vs. Physical Test, Business Case Analysis: Managing the TradeoffsWhile some envision wholly digital product validation, many believe digital modeling and physical prototyping are both necessary and that, properly managed, each can bring greater value to the other. This session will explore frameworks and metrics for managing the tradeoffs between the two methods, coordinating and managing the resulting processes and data streams, and bridging organizational and cultural gaps How these challenges are being met—successes, pitfalls and workarounds—will be explored. |

T1P3 - Bridging Organizational & Process Gaps Across the Enterprise; with Partners & SuppliersGetting the greatest possible value from digital product simulation depends on coordinating and integrating data and workflows from many different disciplines, departments, partners & suppliers, as well as phases of product development. But workgroups and process chains that have historically proceeded more or less independently are often difficult to bring together, even when the benefits to the enterprise are compelling. How can organizational, cultural and psychological barriers to closer cooperation, data sharing and new ways of working be overcome? How are leading manufacturers protecting intellectual property while advancing collaboration with partners and suppliers? This session will explore process-change successes, failures, and best practices. |
