Examples of FTI Core Life Cycle Analytics Tasking:
- Navy ePLM:
FTI provides support to the Enterprise Product Lifecycle Management Integrated Decision Environment (ePLM IDE) initiative and incorporates key system data with Reliability, Availability, Maintainability and Cost (RAM-C) modeling and simulation tools to determine lifecycle costs and readiness impacts of design and support modification. The team works to realize program efficiencies through a common data and decision environment that streamlines processing and builds business intelligence. FTI and the ePLM team utilize the environment to minimize acquisition costs through traceability of requirements and verification testing. The environment optimizes Operational Availability (Ao) to maximize weapon system readiness at lowest lifecycle cost. Lastly, the environment provides a team collaborative environment that allows for view, upload, and link 2D and 3D CAD, engineering bills of material, and programmatic documents to maintain configuration control.
