BTIC Overview Supplier Management Council Business Technology Interoperability Committee Technical Operations Council National Security & Acquisition Policy Investigate, Evaluate & Propose Electronic Interoperability standards And Develop Guidelines Special Projects Special Projects Recommendations Recommendations Proposals Proposals Endorse Send Back BTIC Is the Working Arm of Both SMC and TOC BTIC is chartered jointly by TOC and SMC and reports to both BTIC has Co-Chairs who represent both chartering organizations BTIC has a standing charter which drives ongoing activity TOC or SMC periodically make requests to BTIC for investigation or analysis BTIC sends recommendations to the chartering organizations which they accept and elevate to the BOG, or send back for more work BTIC reaches out to relevant projects in other Committees, eg . EMC, PSC, Legal Charter Undertakes projects to propose standards enabling interoperability in the Aerospace industry

What does the BTIC do?Based on the AIA objective, the overall concept of operations of the BTIC is to: Solicit, identify and rationalize specific business requirements.Identify and assess key standards and initiatives, as framework components within an overall framework for interoperabilityDevelop AIA position statements on relevant standards/initiativesUndertake projects to ensure that appropriate standards are available to industry in a timely manner, together with suitable guidance material if required Develop guidelines for deployment of such components to meet specific business scenariosSeek industry endorsement of the resulting standards and solutions The BTIC Is Chartered to Recommend Interoperability Standards

The Problem The Industry ProblemIndustry ChangesGlobal Enterprise NeedsBusiness CaseEnd State Vision

What is the Industry Problem? Cost of a single interface ranges from $10K to $1M depending on scope and complexity Today’s reality… multiple point-to-point solutions generate excessive cost and complexity Examples of industry gaps and/or inefficiencies: Lack of shared trust infrastructure impeding collaboration between partners Increasing number of customer-unique portals adding cost to suppliers Multiple, redundant, incompatible “IDE systems” within the industry Incompatibilities in information exchange contribute to delay, rework, and error Excessive cost and complexity impeding supply chain agilityExpected business results not yet realized with development of interoperability standards Contractor Tier-1Supplier Customer Logistics Provider AIAMembers BusinessPartners Need enabling capability to avoid one-off solutions and achieve transformational change Industry Perspective excessive cost and complexity Public Exchange OEM Airline n-Tier Supplier

Changes in the Aerospace EnvironmentNumerous Governmental, Military and Commercial activities continue to enter into the Aerospace environment, requiring ever-evolving responses from the industry members ATA eBusiness activitiesFederated Identity Management – BridgesASD SSG, BoostAeroSpace & other International venturesCollaboration on ASD Sx000y specifications Executive OrdersDFARS changes – UCTI, etcUID/RFID and WAWFConvergence of commercial and military processesMove to contractor logistics supportNew legal environments Demands To Comply Drain Company Resources Building One-Off Solutions that Do Not Integrate Well

Global Electronic Enterprise Needs Companies have achieved some measure of success in interoperability Reduced Inventory Reduced Material Cost Reduced Supply Base Better Utilization of Agreements Reduced Headcount Improved Speed / Cycle Times Further benefits largely dependent upon electronic penetration of the customer and supply base Focus on suppliers has had a higher priority Move from local efforts to… Industry Level Response is Needed to Continue to Realize Benefits Orchestrate a Common Plan at Industry level Identify common interface scenario models Identify a consistent methodology for work “Normalize” the data models and other components Provide a forum for driving all Electronic Enterprise standards work Consistently connect Electronic Enterprise components to Enterprise Interface Solutions

Information Backbone Drivers BTIC Challenge is simplification through industry-level development of ‘e’ policy and standards Information Security Evolving technologies, standards, and other IT-related capabilities are becoming more complex. “Information Backbone” brings together relevant initiatives to simplify digital connections across the entire supply chain Information Standards Public/Private Registries Standards Bodies SAML PKI UDDI OASIS UN/CEFACT ISO DoD XML Registry XML EDI STEP Web Services UDDI WSDL XML SOAP Internet Standards HTTP HTML FTP UML SMTP W3C TSCP S1000D PLCS ASD SSG IEC XACML

Business Case for Electronic Integration Supplier Benefits Reduced cost of order entry and administration Larger incentive for non-electronic suppliers to adopt electronic transactions Avoid or minimize added staff to manage electronic orders Common interface to Primes Prime Benefits Increased number of suppliers willing to accept electronic transactions Implement new electronic processes to a more capable supplier base Reduce costs through simplification of processes and systems with adoption of standards Achieve a larger portion of their cost benefits Common adoption of eCollaboration capabilities and processes Adoption of standards enables more efficient supply chain integration Intuitively, the adoption of standards is the right thing to do… regardless of size of company

Electronic Enterprise End State Vision AIA members are committed to the following vision for interoperability across our industry: All participants in the aerospace value chain will be able to exchange information relative to product design, business relationships, transactions, and product support across an information backbone which is open and accessible to all. “Information Backbone” spanning the Industry Information Backbone Built from Policy, Infrastructure and Standards – Not Common Tools

Approach Standards StrategyConcept of OperationsProject Tracking RadarStandards Assessment CriteriaGoing Forward Strategy

The Path to AIA InteroperabilityMany interoperability scenarios can be identified Many standards and initiatives have the potential to satisfy part of the overall industry requirement for interoperabilityBetween companies and business partnersBetween functions in an organisationBetween application systemsChallenge:reduce overall cost and complexity by identifying the most appropriate solution components provide concrete guidance on how to satisfy specific business requirements using an appropriate selection of those components

Standards strategy Path to AIA interoperability StandardsIn order of preference AIA adopts existing standards for use in the aerospace industryAIA influences standards organizations through participation to meet its requirements AIA develops its own standards when none exists from standards organizations AIA may then submit a proposal to the applicable standards organization for international adoption In each case AIA may supplement existing standards with aerospace-agreed implementation conventions (subset), models/examples, and guidelines

Assessment Criteria Ensure Compliance with Guiding PrinciplesBased on the results of science, technology and experience; promotes optimum community benefits.Provides clear business value & supports the industry business strategy and requirements Must align with the context of an overall architecture strategy that is driven by the businessLeverage available standards and technologies, first within aerospace, then in the broader marketPartner with aero-related groups to increase adoption and lower workload: ATA, ASD, other AIA Councils etc. Qualify against Standards Selection Criteria Basis for one or more Framework Components Web / Internet-based standards Preferably globally accepted “Open” host organization committed to collaboration with other groups to ensure interoperability SW/HW vendor participation in the process and commitment to use the results in their products Critical mass for adoption Interoperability with the standards used by our customers and supplier Evaluate against Architectural Principles Business must drive information technology architecture decisions: Use industry proven approachesOpen and/or vendor neutral standardsThe architecture must enable secure communications and appropriate protection of information and technology. Reduce integration complexity: Keep it simple. Evaluate against AIA project criteriaThe project proposal needs to satisfy the criteria established by the AIA for all new projects.Within BTIC charter and scope. An issue the AIA can effectively address. A clearly defined and measurable outcome. Clearly defined sunset provisions. Senior-level commitment from multiple AIA member companies. Contributes to AIA meeting its goals and objectives. A clearly defined "customer pull" or "company push."

AIA Interoperability Implementation Guidebook Concept of operationsInteroperability FrameworkDescription of framework and its use – simplified from MoU/MG modelLower levels of detail for boxes where neededSelection criteria for different components within a box Radar screen BlipsBTIC standards selection process Building a solutionExtending the frameworkExtensible taxonomy of framework components Shows coverage of adopted blips – matrix against framework Populated from adopted blips – list of blips in framework classification Common guidance information Extensible set of scenarios and corresponding solutions Scenarios – in business terms AIA Interoperability Framework Components required Architectural guidance – design time Implementation guidance – build time Operational guidance – run time Annex – The MoU/MG framework – colour coded to AIA Framework

Going Forward StrategyRecommended Approach: AIA members agree to implement interoperability standards as developed and approved by the AIATransactional data presented to suppliers through prime contractor “portals” shall also be made available to suppliers in an automatable electronic formatEach prime develops its own roadmap and schedule to compliance over long term Companies re-engineer processes and deploy tools as required to achieve maximum benefit from adoption of industry standards -- at their own pace Agreement to Move Together, but NOT Mandated Compliance

Operating Style

Operating Style: Member Responsibilities Your Challenge - Member company representatives must: Speak authoritatively for their company on all “e” mattersCoordinate internally in your company and maintain communication with your AIA leadership Adopt an Industry, not Company-specific frame of referenceRepresent a balance of “business” and “technical”, “Commercial” and “Defense” perspectives; and Provide the necessary company support (e.g. resources, direction, etc.) to enable “e” decisions to be made and implemented by AIA as well as coordinate with company TOC and SMC members.
