The June meeting of the Working Group Co-Chairs was held last week. Yuri Gawdiak, JPDO’s Interagency Portfolio and System Analysis (IPSA) Division Director, presented an overview of IPSA’s approach to business case modeling and their plan for scenarios (combination of aircraft, system capabilities, policies, and business models) that will be modeled in the next round of analysis. Yuri solicited input from the Working Groups for comments on the planned scenario runs, or input on other scenario runs that would be useful to one or more Working Groups. Also discussed at the meeting was the Global Harmonization Strategic Plan that is out to the Working Groups for initial review. Angela Harris and Mike Marsili (both from the Global Harmonization Working Group) discussed the purpose, structure, and main points from the document and the schedule for finalization.
JPDO Chief Architect Jay Merkle discussed the plan for updating the Concept of Operations in 2009. This year’s activity will mainly be incorporating the NextGen capability framework, editorial clean-ups, and improved graphics. Jay indicated that based on the many studies and efforts underway this year (far-term ICNS study; far-term UAS capabilities for NextGen integration definition; AOC/FOC concept development; etc.), next year will likely see updates to content. JPDO Working Group Integration Manager Maureen Keegan reviewed the approach and schedule for developing FY10/11 Working Group Plans, with a major workshop coming up on July 15. Finally, Col, Doug Wreath discussed the management of work between the Net-Centric Operations Division and Working Groups. For those with KSN access, presentations can be found here, under “20090610 Meeting.”
