An Implementer's View of the Interoperability of Logistics and Product

Data StandardsACDM Conference 2010

March 21-24, Williamsburg, Va.Parker Owen

Why Interoperable Product Data Standards

• Accurate/Current:‾ “Right Data at the Right Time used to derive the Right

Information”• Re-usable:

‾ Leverage the investment in supportability analysis in Production & Deployment and Operations & Support

• Long Term Use:‾ The Data may (must) live as long as the program


3


A Sampling of Legacy, Current and Evolving Standards

• Support Analysis and Related Standards– Mil-Std -1552 / D220, Mil-Std-1388-2A, Mil-Std -1388-2B,

Mil-Prf-49506, Def-Stan 0060, ASD 1000D, ASD 2000M, ASD 3000L, GEIA-Std-0007, ISO10303 AP 239

• Configuration Management and Product Data Standards– Mil-Std-973, Mil-Std-2549, EIA-836, ISO10303 AP 203,

232, pdm schema


4


What Standards are the “Best”• What standard (or set of standards) is:

– the “best;”– most commonly used;– most mature;– provides the “most business value”

• Many of the standards have been in production use for a long time, e.g., MIL-STD-1388-2B

• Many standards have been in development / evolving for a long time– … common joke: ISO standards evolve at glacial

speed

What is a Software Vendor to do?• … while trying to,

– provide the best business value to the target customer base,– ensure existing programs can continue to satisfy contract

deliverables– ensure existing programs can mature with new requirements – enable new programs to satisfy new requirements

– stay in business• Implement applicable pieces of applicable

standards– Even if for some reason you want to “eat an elephant,” you can

only do so one bite at a time.– Many of the standards provide data exchange sets (smaller

domains of the entire scope of the standard) to enable the exchange (and implementation) of a subset of the data definition.

Interoperable Product Data Standards

• Interoperability will:‾ Enable more accurate and timely derived information‾ Make data more re-usable‾ Improve the quality of the data in the “databases of

authority”‾ Make data more survivable

• Interoperability can evolve‾ Implement to the level of interoperability, and in the

domain(s), as determined by the derived business value
