3. Digital Engineering Information Exchange WG Overview
Problem Statement:
Despite advances in the digital era, there are significant inefficiencies when suppliers, acquirers, and internal team members exchange engineering information following a traditional document-based approach
Primary Goal:
To establish a finite set of digital artifacts which stakeholders (acquirers, suppliers, internal teams etc. should use to exchange digital engineering information
Slow | Error Prone
Efforts:
Define a Finite Set of Digital Artifacts
Develop Constructs for assembling of Digital Artifacts
Leverage and Influence Standards to Improve DEIX
Adopt a Common Lexicon
ISO 15288
Ambiguity | Risk | Rework | Error Prone
Opportunity:
Leverage new digital technologies, forms of media, and means of interaction to provide enriched system representations. Shared information, knowledge and understanding
Chair/Co Chairs:

Frank Salvatore
Chris Schreiber
Organizational Liaison/Stakeholder Representatives:
Phil Zimmerman: OSD OUSD R-E
Troy Peterson: INCOSE
David Allsop: NDIA
Dr. Tracee Gilbert, OSD OUSD R-E SETA
