Business Opportunities

• Integration of 14 Navy systems including MFOM, ASI, NAVSUPP, REMAD, Readiness Suite, SHIPS3M, COSAL, NLL, PDREP, Deck Plate and ERP within the complex network.
• Bi-directional data exchange required to exchange CSMP (Current Ship Maintenance Project) information using JTDI (Joint Technical Data Integration) and SDIF (Standard Data Interface Format) standards.
• Real-time updates of ship configurations for mission readiness required

Features

• Maintaining data consistency and operational integrity across diverse Navy IT platforms.
• High-frequency updates implemented with daily, weekly, and bi-weekly deltas to keep data updated.
• Meeting specific ship and data variation needs, encompassing data formats such as JSON/REST and Fixed Width Flat files.
• Integration of systems into the digital backbone using eQube^®-DaaS connectors and Remote Adapters, regardless of location (on-premises, cloud-based, hybrid, or network-separated environments).
• Maintaining accurate configuration management.

eQube^® Benefits

• Smooth transition from NAVESEA CDMD-OA (Configuration Data Managers Database - Open Architecture) to Windchill-based MBPS (Model Based Product Support), provided data access for the Navy, vendors, contractors, and government systems, capable to integrate new systems.
• Real-time configuration tracking made possible for naval assets, surpassing native Windchill capabilities and ensuring mission-critical readiness.
• Complex data integration achieved across 600+ Navy platforms in secure, mission-critical environments.
• Informed decision-making with accurate and up-to-date configuration data across the US Navy's fleet made possible.
• Data integration accomplished across multiple sources of data including PLM, ERP, and File Systems, to present information in the desired format for each participant integrated system.
• Data from diverse sources like Navy enterprise applications, whether homegrown, commercial off-the-shelf (COTS), or government off-the-shelf (GOTS) was mashed together. This was made possible by creating composite APIs to give a single source of truth. This made the solution flexible and extensible to maintain.
• Performed ship configuration delta calculations across multiple enterprise applications as per need basis per interface integration.

eQ Process

• Orchestrated a responsible retirement of the legacy CDMD-OA system with a focus on data retention.
• Developed a data integration strategy to handle complex network infrastructures within Navy systems.
• Implemented a system that allows for the continuous assessment of fleet readiness and mission capability.
