Change-Impact and Lifecycle Analysis
See the full blast radius of a change before you commit—and roll it out without chaos in the field.
We trace how a proposed change touches interfaces, tests, documents, fleets, and sustainment cost. This gives engineering, program, and purchasing teams a portfolio-level view instead of a one-drawing view.
What this helps with:
- Understanding what a design, part, or vendor change really touches across the installed base
- Comparing “do nothing” vs small changes vs full modernization with eyes open
- Avoiding surprises in documentation, training, or spares when a change hits the fleet
- Keeping NSNs, SAR evidence, and approval paths aligned as systems evolve
Typical deliverables:
- Change-impact maps across assemblies, interfaces, NSNs, and documents
- Option comparisons: minimal redesign vs modernization vs full replacement, with sustainment impacts
- Lifecycle views showing cost, risk, and supportability over time for each path
- Recommendations that explicitly call out spares, SAR, and documentation implications
What we need from you:
- Current and proposed configurations, drawings, and any known change drivers
- Installed-base information: major variants, quantities, and where systems are used
- Constraints on timing, budgets, approvals, and field or depot operations
- Any specific DLA / OEM, NSN, or SAR requirements the change and rollout must respect
Upgrades and Installed Base Support
Roll out upgrades across a mixed installed base without breaking readiness, approvals, or spares.
We help you plan and execute upgrades that respect existing fleets, logistics, and installed base realities. The focus is on practical sustainment: what can change, what must stay, and how to roll it out without chaos.
What this helps with:
- Planning upgrades across multiple configurations, vintages, and NSNs in the field
- Avoiding “orphan” variants and one-off fixes that are hard to support later
- Coordinating documentation, training, and spares so upgrades don’t blindside depots or operators
- Aligning upgrade paths with DLA / OEM expectations and source-approval realities
Typical deliverables:
- Installed-base map: key variants, configurations, locations, and usage patterns
- Upgrade strategies for each family or variant, including “no-touch” cases
- Retrofit concepts, pilot-build plans, and field/depot rollout outlines
- Structured inputs for updated drawings, tech manuals, training, and spares planning
What we need from you:
- Installed-base data: variants, serial ranges, quantities, and where systems live (fleet/depot/test)
- Current and target configurations, plus any known upgrade drivers or constraints
- Information on existing documentation, training, and spares posture
- Any DLA / NSN, OEM, or SAR requirements the upgrade path must respect
