Can you delegate
the subsystem?
Every modern mil/aero platform is a “system of
systems.” Each airliner, naval vessel, land vehicle
or UAV, consists of many individual subsystems
within the overall platform.
And each of these subsystems adds
critical capabilities by performing
important functions such as navigation,
communication or vehicle management.
Each subsystem is crucial to the overall
success of the platform, and must be
tightly integrated with other components.
However, each subsystem is also a distinct
entity, which a prime contractor can delegate to subcontractors such as GE
Intelligent Platforms. This delegation
however, places tremendous responsibility
on the subcontractor because each
subsystem is indispensable. It is a responsibility GE is well-equipped to assume.
Our goal is to deliver our subsystems with
the best customer experience for you, the
prime contractor, with an unparalleled level
of service. We aim to earn your respect as
your trusted program partner.
rugged systems
We put a lot more than
hardware into each box.
In theory, the process of designing and building a rugged,
mil/aero subsystem would seem to be fairly straightforward.
In practice, it is an extremely complex undertaking.
In fact, experience has shown that without
the most careful planning, testing, analysis,
documentation, validation, and support, it
is a process fraught with danger.
GE Intelligent Platforms has vast experience
with designing rugged sub- systems, which
mitigates most of this risk. Our world class
Program Management process is designed
to execute on our core competencies:
Contract Management, Application
Domain Knowledge, System Architecture,
Thermal Management, Integration,
Validation & Verification, Configuration
Management, Engineering Process and
Procedures, Program Lifecycle Management
(PLM), Logistics and Reliability.
So when we deliver a subsystem, there’s a lot
more inside that box than PCB and silicon.
