Ship and Aviation Engineering – Core Capabilities

The Ship and Aviation Engineering Business Unit offers the following core competencies:

Acquisition Support/Program Management – Professionals support virtually every Program Office in the Naval Air Systems Command, assisting in program areas such as weapon systems acquisition, POM/budget support, financial planning/analysis, tracking and reconciliation, funds management and execution, financial systems support, SAR/DAES/MAR reporting, cost and business case analysis, specification and reporting, and a broad range of weapon system acquisition documentation.

C4ISR Support and Integration – C4ISR requirement Analysis, System Design, Engineering, Network Architecture, Operations, Testing/Experimentation, Training, and Program Management Support Services. Providing a long history of outstanding support to Navy and USMC C4ISR Systems Support, Enterprise Architecture (EA) and Integration and Life Cycle Support, Joint and Naval Concept Development and Experimentation and Federal IT program. Support is also provided to a wide array of customers to include OSD, DISA, NRL, Joint Staff, DoD Explosive Safety Board (DDESB), U.S. Navy, USMC, OPNAV, and SPAWAR Atlantic.

Engineering Fabrication and Prototype Development – Provide fabrication and prototype development, integration and testing of various avionics, communications, navigation, landing, and GPS augmentation systems. Support includes design and fabrication of prototype avionics systems, laboratory, mobile, and flight testing. Flight testing and integration is performed on commercial and military fixed, rotary wing, and unmanned aircraft.

Financial Management – Business financial management support includes POM/budget support, financial planning, analysis, tracking and reconciliation, funds management and execution, financial systems support, SAR/DAES/MAR financial reporting, program/business plan development and analysis, DoD PPBES training, and cost and business case analysis.

Installation & Maintenance – Site inspection support, engineering drawing review and modification, Quality Assurance and testing, system operational verification, field technical support, structural fabrication, repair and overhaul, militarize/de-militarize commercial vessels (HSV-Navy), in-service project engineering, complete installation support, and ship/shore installations.

Life-Cycle Support (ILS) – In-service engineering support, reliability and maintainability training documentation, Fleet Engineering Support (FSTs), industrial/fleet cycle-time reduction, A/C Inventory CM (RAMP), Stricken Aircraft Reclamation and Disposition Program (SARDIP), component disposition and disposal, logistics planning and analysis support, depot manufacturing support, depot production planning and analysis, readiness based forecasting.

Software Development/IT – Software Development support includes application Development, computer forensics, information assurance, GIS, independent verification and validation, software Configuration Management, mission planning software, software support to the Air Warfare Weapon System Support Activity (WSSA), and CMMI support for software.

Systems Engineering and Integration (SE&I) – Primary focus on design and development of mission systems, sensor systems, air vehicle engineering, acoustic engineering, navigation engineering, software engineering, communications engineering, unmanned systems integration and support, T&E engineering, system/subsystem equipment interface design, software Configuration Management, low observable engineering and design, signature prediction and analysis, A/C launch and recovery systems engineering, weapons/aircraft integration analysis, rapid prototype development and implementation solutions for government customers. We deliver high quality engineering and technical assistance as well as systems solutions primarily to U.S. Navy, SOCOM, Air Force, OSD AT&L, Intelligence Community, and OSD Special Capabilities Office customers.

Technology Applications/Emerging Technologies – Experience and information security expertise to identify, understand, and remediate security weaknesses and vulnerabilities related to people, processes and technology. This includes security assessment, vulnerability testing, penetration testing, forensics and audit analysis, security policy review and development, HIPPAA compliance and Telemedicine. Additionally, Emerging Technologies provides a wide array of incident handling, computer forensics, regulatory compliance and application assessment to U.S. Navy, Army, and state and local governments such as the City of Philadelphia, New York Health and Hospital, the State of New Jersey, and Delaware.

Training – Developing a prototype portable training system that replicates two examples of aircrew operator stations to provide a low-cost training capability for Naval reserve forces suffering severe training shortfalls due to cuts in flight time and limited access to high fidelity training devices. Our Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) expertise allows us to provide training/training systems for ASW systems. We provided DOD PPBES training to numerous NAVAIR clients.
