Through-Life Systems Management 2011

Through-Life Systems Management(TLSM) approach has been adopted widely in translating warfighters’ requirements into effective and efficient acquisitions of programmes to deliver the required capabilities. However, while this framework has been proven effective, the task of planning systems’ lifecycle supportability and availability remains complex and challenging. One of the main reasons being, acquisition lifecycle don’t simply consider the process of acquiring one system, but also to capture and integrate the multiple interdependencies to deliver optimum systems of systems capability.


This 3-day course is planned to enhance the implementation of TLSM in delivering an optimum capability on systems of systems level. The course instructor will discuss intensively on management planning, documentation and control, framework performance metrics, supportability engineering analysis, managing technology insertion and obsolescence and systems disposal, among others. To ensure practicality of teaching, real world case studies will be discussed, along with syndicate discussion on persisting challenges that practitioners faced in ensuring lifecycle systems readiness.
