Brief Description and Purpose: During the Industry Brief given by the Naval Sea Systems Command at the Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC), Annapolis Detachment on May 4 and 5, 1993 the Advanced Surface Machinery Programs (ASMP) were presented and discussed. The approach of concurrent design and development (concurrent engineering) was emphasized. Since accurate computer simulation could be used advantageously in all stages of component and system design and development, simulation becomes a necessity if this type of engineering approach is to succeed. Since 1987, PC Krause and Associates (PCKA) had been involved in the development of computer models for the Navy (NSWC). The computer models which were being used by NSWC to design and investigate Navy related power systems were developed and originally coded in ASCL by PCKA. The need for simulation in the Navy’s concurrent engineering approach to the Advanced Surface Machinery Programs was made very apparent at the Industry Brief. Coupling this with the fact that (PCKA) was instrumental in developing the simulation capability of NSWC provided the impetus for this contract. PCKA had not become involved with the manufacturers other than through or with the Government agency. This enabled PCKA to provide an independent evaluation. As a result of this independence and the fact that PCKA had an excellent working relationship with industry allowed PCKA to play its first role as an honest broker.
