Missile Defense Agency Focus
Missile Defense Agency (2001-Present)
Focus on developing and fielding integrated ballistic missile defense systemAgainst multiple threats and increasing ballistic missile proliferationMaintain current level of protection, while developing future, proven capabilities
Today’s Mission
To develop and deploy a layered BMDS to defend
the United States,
its deployed
forces, allies, and friends from ballistic missile attacks of all ranges and in all phases of flight

Successful engagement of threat missile depends on quality, highly reliable systems and sub-systems
- First time, every time level of reliability- Detection, tracking and interceptor launch require precision timing
Demand For Reliable, High Quality Components and Software

Recent Process & Workmanship Failures:
Improper rigging of a lanyard pull connector –
Target failed to deploy and negated testMissing lock wire on onboard thruster– Caused a test failureSub-tier supplier cork installation process not adequately controlled –
Caused delamination/ voids on target vehicle Refurbished memory devices used in mission computer – Caused excessive reworkFailure to follow process (Heat treat certification) – Caused multiple lot failures & lost production of E-Bolts Lack of process controls (Supplier manufacturing process not proofed/qualified) – Caused strake bonding failuresSoftware (Radar algorithm) design validation and under-estimated input demands of “real-time” system – Caused performance, timing and processing errors
Slide9
‘B
ody of knowledge’ created over decades (configuration management, process discipline, workmanship) codified in QS quality and mission assurance plans
Incorporated Industry ‘best practices’ and explicit quality clauses in development and production contractsConducting QS “audits” to evaluate suppliers and eliminate inconsistent compliance Focusing on supplier producibility assessments where increased throughput /schedules have resulted in manufacturing and fabrication problems
Current focus is on determining supplier capability to deliver quality production units (yield)
Responses to Quality Issues
Slide10
Recent QS Initiatives
Critical production readiness reviews to ensure manufacturing
producibility
Manufacturing and fabrication assessmentsOn-site distribution audits Dedicated Parts,
Materials and Processes Team
Emphasis on preventing faulty
and counterfeit parts from entering the supply chain
Obsolescent parts now identified and tracked
In-plant inspections for manufacturing workmanship
Rigorous
facility checklists
Independent technical assessments of supplier facilities and production processes
Provides insight on production risks for “complex” and mission “critical” components

SUMMARY
Focus on “first time, every time’ reliability
Prevent counterfeit parts from entering the supply chain and their use in mission critical components
Drive Supply chain to focus on workmanship standardsResolve ‘producibility issues, i.e., schedule and throughput
Use the Facility Checklist as a catalyst to:
Raise the level of compliance among all suppliers
Provide common framework for evaluating mission-critical component productivity risks
Identify weaknesses within individual supplier’s production processes
