8. SX000i – The Guide
SX000i:
Is the overarching document defining the common logistics processes to be used across all S-Series specifications
Provides governance for the maintenance of current S-Series specifications and the development of new S- Series specifications
Benefits of SX000i
Commonality ….. Interoperability ….. Simplification ….. Consistency
Supports DoD methodology for developing and executing a Logistics Support program throughout the system’s Life Cycle

Mission:
Identifying and specifying A&D industry needs in regards to information interoperability along the product life-cycle.
Proposing and applying governance tools at strategic and technical level (e.g. radar screen, interoperability framework, assessment process).
Developing ASD standards policies and recommendations and publishing these through the SSG website
Encouraging IT vendors to implement these solutions and assessing the quality of those implementations.
Developing a network of experts.
Developing  liaisons with all relevant associations (e.g. AIA in the U.S.) and standardisation organisations (e.g. ISO/TC 184/SC 4, OMG )

What message do we want to send?

25. Programs invoking S1000D have the foundation for S-Series adoption
Summary Page
Programs invoking S1000D have the foundation for S-Series adoption
As weapon systems are becoming more sophisticated, in-service feedback is imperative to ensure lower sustainment costs and improve readiness
S-Series Specifications utilize a common data model ensuring interoperability and the reuse of data
Lowers the cost of ILS documentation during the development cycle and significantly decreases the costs resulting from block-upgrades throughout a weapon system’s lifecycle   

26. Advert!! September 10-13, 2018 The Ritz Carlton New Orleans
