A -- BMDO MODELING, SIMULATION AND NETWORK SUPPORT SOL HQ0006-95-C-0018 POC POC: Marc Lesser, (703) 604-4242, CBD Reference Number: BMDO 98-04 The Ballistic Missile Defense Organization (BMDO) intends to enter into a sole source contract modification with TRW, Inc., Systems Integration Group, to modify the existing Ballistic Missile Defense Integration (BMDI) Information Technology Resources (ITR) Program, under Contract HQ0006-95-C-0018. Under the existing baseline BMDI Program, TRW assessed BMDO joint service network resources, determined BMDO BMD networking requirements, developed a network system architecture for current and future BMDO networking requirements, analyzed requirements to determine the need for changes to the architecture, supported development of long range plans to address modifications to BMD networks, and provided technical and system analysis to support the BMDO ITR acquisition management planning and military utility assessment (using modeling and simulation techniques). Under the proposed modification (in addition to continued baseline efforts), TRW will collect, analyze and determine BMDO modeling, simulation and network (MS&N) requirements; assess MS&N resources available/planned; identify baseline system architecture(s); develop requirement specifications; and develop target architectures to satisfy BMDO's current and future MS&N requirements. TRW will also collect and analyze requirements to determine the need for (and changes to) BMD MS&N systems and architectures, to include: collecting and analyzing requirements for securing BMD networks and providing recommendations for implementing those requirements; analyzing related existing BMD systems and architectures and provide recommendations regarding modifications to system architecture(s) to meet requirements (including the need for hardware or software upgrades to computer resources, proposed upgrades, and effective methods for monitoring computer utilization); and analyzing real-time deficiencies and special architectural features to determine requirements for machine performance, common operating environments, open software architectures, security, and fault tolerances. TRW will support development of engineering plans that address modernization of BMD networks, computer resources, modeling and simulation, and associated efforts (e.g., BMD ITR Plan and Wargame 2000 verification, validation and accreditation plan). In conjunction with the ITR efforts, TRW will support BMDO integration and implementation of a BMDO Virtual Data Center (VDC), which will provide remote access to archived data located at geographical separate locations. This effort will include system engineering tasks related to design, implementation, and test and evaluation (alpha and beta), of the VDC. TRW will provide support to BMDO for the Attack Operations (AO) Working Group. This includes documenting system level requirements for AO and performing systems analysis, as it relates to ITR and MS&N. See Note(s): 22. (0322)
