Summary:
The CECOM Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (C4ISR) and AMRDEC requires programmatic, technical, and logistics support for development of a well-defined and documented CBM+ Desktop Guide for stakeholders of the C4ISR community that describes repeatable and effective processes to meet CBM+ objectives. CBM+ is an alternative life cycle support approach that seeks to achieve several major objectives: Reduced Soldier Burden, Increased Availability, Enhanced Safety, and Reduced Operational & Support (O&S) Costs
The successful candidate must be a self-starter, with excellent communication skills and technical expertise, providing full - time contractor support for planning, developing, and program execution for the Army CBM+ Program and Processes.
Customer:
• US Army Communications and Electronics Command (CECOM) Command, Control, Communications, Commuters, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (C4ISR)
• The US Army Research, Development, Engineering Command (RDECOM), subsidiary the US Army Aviation Missile Research Development and Engineering Center (AMRDEC), Engineering Directorate (ED), Engineering Support Division (ESD), Diagnostics/Prognostics Laboratory
Specific Duties:
The contractor shall provide technical, programmatic, and logistics expertise to the C4ISR community and its stakeholders:
• Perform technical data research to develop and document a repeatable data and process strategy. Specifically develop a roadmap for incorporation into a CBM+ Desktop Guide for stakeholders and the C4ISR community to meet the CBM+ objectives of: Reduced Soldier Burden, Increased Availability, Enhanced Safety, and Reduced O&S Costs.
• Develop technical approaches of the multi-platform Embedded Global Positioning System (GPS)/Inertial (EGI) for improved Testing, Training, Analysis and Reporting to reduce No Evidence Of Failure (NEOF). Conduct and document current-state assessment, conduct and document a map/gap assessment of the required end state, and document and deliver recommendations to eliminate/minimize gaps.
• Provide Technical, Analytical, Programmatic and Logistics Support Expertise to identify and document processes:
o On-Platform to reduce ambiguity, reduce No Evidence Of Failure (NEOF), and other removal due to component non-failure (such as maintenance caused removal or collateral damage).
o At-Platform to enhance maintainer troubleshooting, enhance training, IETM updates, reduce troubleshooting time, improve fault isolation, reduction in false removals.
o At-Unit – Enhanced pre-mission planning
o At-Depot – Reduce NEOF, reduce O&S costs
o At-Enterprise – assist in demand rate forecasting and support cross-platform functionality.
• Evaluate life cycle operations, maintenance, training, technical and logistics impacts, as well as identification and quantification of Return on Investment as related to CBM+ implementation in support of CBM+ life cycle of systems support processes.
• Provide Technical, Analytical, Programmatic and Logistics Support Expertise related to CBM+ and Fleet Management Processes, requirements generation, development, testing, fielding and sustainment beginning On-Aircraft, At-Aircraft, At-Unit, and At-Enterprise, throughout the Common Logistics Operating Environment (CLOE) and Army Integrated Logistics Architecture (AILA).
