Joaquin J. Martinez de Pinillos
Program Manager, Integrated Collaborative Environment (ICE)
NASA

Joaquin J. Martinez de Pinillos is the program manager for the Integrated Collaborative Environment (ICE), which is being implemented throughout NASA. ICE is used for sharing, collaborating, integrating, accessing and controlling the management information and product data that defines all products that are part of the Exploration Systems Mission Directorate (ESMD). NASA's Exploration Systems Mission Directorate is the section of the agency dedicated to fulfilling the Vision for Space Exploration and returning to the moon, going on to Mars, and exploring the rest of the solar system.

During his time with NASA, Mr. Martinez de Pinillos has served as the development manager for the ICE. Prior to accepting a position at NASA Headquarters, he worked at Anteon Corporation, where he served as a technical director and project manager for the Air Force's transformation product data management pilot, which is now moving into full implementation. Before working at Anteon, he was a senior solution architect with PTC, where he was the senior technical resource on a number of large projects including Future Combat Systems, EMC, etc.

Mr. Martinez de Pinillos holds a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering from Villanova University, as well as a master's in engineering management with a concentration in information management and information systems from George Washington University.

Abstract

Introduction to NASA’s Integrated Collaborate Environment (ICE)

The Integrated Collaborated Environment (ICE) is a web-centric environment which will be used by industry, academia and government for sharing, collaborating, integrating, accessing and controlling management information and product data defining all of the products which are part of Exploration Systems Mission Directorate (ESMD). ICE provides a secure data repository with the necessary access control for data protection in conjunction with a collaborative environment, which enables real-time decision making relative to program deliverables. ICE is defined as an integral component for decision support throughout the program lifecycle and is predicated on availability of needed information to team members involved in the making of those program decisions. ESMD will use ICE to facilitate effective feedback, efficient change management and rapid change propagation. ICE will support a wide variety of uses including support for Intermediate Program Reviews (IPRs), major and minor design reviews, linking with potential users of the systems, team meetings, documenting issues, and calculation management. This discussion will cover an overview of what ICE is, an overview of how it works, and the CAD/CAE/PDM/PLM tools used in the architecture.
