1 The ESA Concurrent Design Facility: Concurrent Engineering applied to space mission assessments CDF ESA/ESTEC Noordwijk - NL CDF Info Pack 2011 Slide 1 CDF: what is it? The ESTEC Concurrent Design Facility is an Integrated Design Environment (IDE) available to all ESA programmes for interdisciplinary and interdirectorate applications, based on Concurrent Engineering methodology The implementation started in Nov.1998, on an experimental basis with initiative (and support) of the General Studies Programme (GSP) Initially conceived for the assessment and the conceptual design of future space missions, i.e. internal pre-phase A / feasibility studies Featuring: Team orientated concurrent engineering Integration of tools, project data, mission and system models Simultaneous participation of all mission domains, incl. Programmatics/AIV, Operations, Cost Engineering, Risk Analysis, CAD, Simulation CDF Info Pack 2011 Slide 2

A Launch SPEC. s Review SPEC. s Review SPEC. s CDR FDIR Lessons Learned CDF Info Pack 2011 Slide 3 Why do we need Concurrent Engineering? 1. To overcome the communication gaps between the designer (who produces design information) and the user (who utilises the design information) Sequential Design ( over-the-fence approach) CDF Info Pack 2011 Slide 4

3 Possible approaches to system design Centralised design Concurrent design CDF Info Pack 2011 Slide 5 CDF: the approach (Organisation dependent) 1. Re-organization of existing tools and human resources in a more effective (i.e. concurrent ) way Technical Domains Engineering Tools & DBs Domain Specialists Interfacing Group System Perspective Data Sharing Team Engineers Integrated Design Environment CDF Info Pack 2011 Slide 6

4 CDF: the achievements Activities performed 130+ (potential) future missions studied and designed internally at pre-phase A, conceptual, system level 3 System of System studies and the integration of SoS software into the CDF 7 new launcher concept design 11 complex payload instrument design (IDA), incl. platform, system, mission 25 reviews of Industrial Phase A studies (internal + Industry) and Phase B Joint studies with NASA/JPL/PDC-Team X (Distributed Concurrent Engineering), CNES CIC, Industry, Academia Anomaly investigation for later project phases Educational, training, promotion and standardisation activities Spin-off Transfer of CDF know-how and software to national Agencies, Industry, Academia CDF Info Pack 2011 Slide 7 Payload & P/L accommodation Advanced launchers Diverse range of space missions Crewed vehicles for exploration preparation programme ROSITA instrument on Columbus External Platform Socrates Heavy Lift Launch Vehicle S5P Human Missions to Mars ExoMars Telescopes and Technology FIRI ISS Internal Payload Science Requirements Definition IMPACT facility inside an ISS rack WiFLY Laplace Moon Lander CDF Info Pack 2011 Slide 8

5 New CDF application - System of Systems architecture Service oriented Example: GIANUS 1. Architecture and integration of independent space assets and systems to provide a layer of global services (e.g. security) 2. Collaboration among ESA programme directorates and other Agencies 3. Support EU and national authorities dealing with Civil Crisis Management (ref. EC-EDA-ESA workshop - 16 Sep on Space for Security and Defence) CDF Info Pack 2011 Slide 9 System of Systems Architecture Activities Evaluated set of architectures (based on customer preferences/priorities) Identification of potential additional service(s) CDF Info Pack 2011 Slide 10

Performances (typical pre-phase A study): a. Study duration (Design phase): 3-6 weeks (cp. 6-9 months!) b. Factor 4 reduction in time c. Factor 2 reduction in cost (for the Customer) d. Increased nr of studies per year, compatibly with max 2 parallel studies 2. Improvement in quality, providing quick, consistent and complete mission design, incl. technical feasibility, programmatics, risk, cost 3. Technical report becomes part of the specs for subsequent industrial activity, Cost report remains the ESA independent reference 4. Capitalisation of corporate knowledge for further reusability 5. CDF: an essential tool for the ESA Decision Making and Risk Management processes CDF Info Pack 2011 Slide 12
