EWSolutions, Inc. 1/25/2017 Developing and Implementing a New Defense Logistics Supply Chain: A Case Study in How EWSolutions Enabled Success for the US Department of Defense The Department of Defense (DoD) is America's oldest and largest government agency. It employs a civilian force of 742,000, along with over 1.3 million men and women on active duty; it is the United State's largest employer. Another 826,000 people serve in the National Guard and Reserve forces. The national security depends on defense installations, people, and facilities being in the right place, at the right time, with the right qualities and capacities to protect the security of the United States and allies. These military service members and civilians operate in every time zone and in every climate. More than 450,000 employees are overseas, both afloat and ashore. This complexity extends to the logistics, communication, and supply chain needed to connect and furnish these employees and dependents with all the required resources (food, clothing, weapons, etc.) The mission of the US Department of Defense is to provide the military forces needed to deter war and to protect the security of the United States. Fulfilling this mission requires a large variety of resources; securing and delivering those resources to the right place at the right time in the right quantities requires accurate information that comes from complete and valid data.

    Enterprise Architecture Dr. Adnan Albar Faculty of Computing & Information Technology King AbdulAziz University - Jeddah 1 Enterprise Architecture Methods Lecture 5 Week 5 Slides King AbdulAziz University - FCIT 2 Overview . Description Languages for Business & IT Domains . IDEF . BPMN . Testbed . ARIS . Unified Modeling Language . Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) Slide 3 Description Languages . In domains such as business process design and software development, we find established description languages for modeling these domains. For software modeling, UML is of course, the single dominant language. In organization and process modeling, on the other hand, a multitude of languages are in use: there is no standard for models in this domain. We will focus on languages that either find widespread use or have properties that are interesting from the perspective of our goals in developing an enterprise architecture language. Slide 4 IDEF – Integrated DEFinition Methods .IDEF is a family of languages .Used to perform enterprise modeling and analysis .Currently, there are 16 IDEF methods. Of these methods, IDEF0, IDEF3, and IDEF1X (‘the core’) are the most commonly used. Slide 5 IDEF – The Scope it Covers .Functional modeling, IDEF0: The idea behind IDEF0 is to model the elements controlling the execution of a function, the actors performing the function, the objects or data consumed and produced by the function, and the relationships between business functions (shared resources and dependencies). .Process modeling, IDEF3: IDEF3 captures the workflow of a business process via process flow diagrams. These show the task sequence for processes performed by the organization, the decision logic, describe different scenarios for performing the same business functions, and enable the analysis and improvement of the workflow.

  • Integrating IT Portfolio Management with Enterprise Architecture Management 79
    Enterprise Modelling and Information Systems Architectures Vol. 8, No. 2, December 2013 Integrating IT Portfolio Management with Enterprise Architecture Management 79 Daniel Simon, Kai Fischbach, Detlef Schoder Integrating IT Portfolio Management with Enterprise Architecture Management The management of information technology (IT) as a business has become a crucial factor in today’s complex and dynamic environments. Many firms thus have implemented IT portfolio and enterprise architecture (EA) management practices, and academic research has paid increasing attention to these concepts. However, their integration seems poorly substantiated; this article therefore seeks to answer two main questions: (1) What are differences and common characteristics of IT portfolio and EA management, and in what way can they be integrated? and (2) what factors and types might describe an integrated process design of EA management and project portfolio management in particular? To answer these questions, this study synthesises previous research and surveys EA practitioners to propose an EA management process map, as well as three descriptive factors and four clusters, which provide an integrated process design with project portfolio management. The interrelations with organisational aspects and software tool support are also explored. This article thereby clarifies and systematises the subject area while also offering advice for researchers and practitioners. 1 Introduction structured, business-like approach to IT manage- ment that comprises application, infrastructure, The notion of managing information technology service, and project portfolio management (Ben- (IT) as a business (Lientz and Larssen 2004) has son et al. 2004; Kaplan 2005). attracted significant attention, particularly as IT environments grow steadily more complex and Integration is equally critical to EA management, thus more difficult to manage.

  • A Study on Process Description Method for DFM Using Ontology
    Invited Paper A Study on Process Description Method for DFM Using Ontology K. Hiekata1 and H. Yamato2 1Department of Systems Innovation, Graduate School of Engineering, The University of Tokyo, 5-1-5, Kashiwanoha, Kashiwa-city, Chiba 277-8563, Japan 2Department of Human and Engineered Environmental Studies, Graduate School of Frontier Sciences, The University of Tokyo, 5-1-5, Kashiwanoha, Kashiwa-city, Chiba 277-8563, Japan [email protected], [email protected] Abstract A method to describe process and knowledge based on RDF which is an ontology description language and IDEF0 which is a formal process description format is proposed. Once knowledge of experienced engineers is embedded into the system the knowledge will be lost in the future. A production process is described in a proposed format similar to BOM and the process can be retrieved as a flow diagram to make the engineers to understand the product and process. Proposed method is applied to a simple production process of common sub-assembly of ships for evaluation. Keywords: Production process, DFM, Ontology, Computer system 1 INTRODUCTION (Unified Resource Identifier) is assigned to all the objects, There are many research and computer program for and metadata is defined for all objects using the URI. supporting optimization of production process in Metadata is defined as a statement with subject, shipyards. And knowledge of experienced engineers is predicate and object. The statement is called triple in embedded into the system. Once the knowledge is RDF. Two kinds of elements, Literal or Resource, can be embedded into computer system, the knowledge is not a component of a statement.

It is documented using multiple facilitate integrated systems architectures with the architectural models or views that show how the passage of the Clinger-Cohen Act. Additionally, current and future needs of an organization will be Office of Management and Budget (OMB) issued met. The key components of the EA are: guidance that requires agency information systems investments to be consistent with Federal, Agency, • Accurate representation of the and bureau architectures. Enterprise Architectures business environment, strategy and (EA) are “blueprints” for systematically and critical success factors completely defining an organization’s current • Comprehensive documentation of (baseline) or desired (target) environment. EAs are business units and key processes essential for evolving information systems and • Views of the systems and data that developing new systems that optimize their mission support these processes value. This is accomplished in logical or business • A set of technology standards that terms (e.g., mission, business functions, information define what technologies and flows, and systems environments) and technical products are approved to be used terms (e.g., software, hardware, communications), within an organization, and includes a sequencing plan for transitioning complemented by prescriptive from the baseline environment to the target enterprise-wide guidelines on how environment. to best apply these technology standards in creating business If defined, maintained, and implemented effectively, applications.
