1 USING SYSTEM READINESS LEVELS TO IMPROVE RELIABILITY PREDICTIONS DECISIONS Mark London (1) Thomas Holzer, D.Sc, (2) Dr. Tim Eveleigh (2) Dr. Shahryar Sarkani (2) (1) PhD Candidate, George Washington University, Engineering Management and Systems Engineering (2) Adjunct Professor, George Washington University, Engineering Management and Systems Engineering This presentation was developed in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Doctor of Philosophy degree from the Department of Engineering Management and Systems Engineering at the George Washington University.

2 1) Purpose of Presentation 2) DoD Reliability and System Readiness Levels 3) SRL Applied to Reliability Growth 4) SRL Applied to T&E Investment 5) Results and Conclusions 2 13 Nov 2013 GET CONNECTED to LEARN, SHARE, and ADVANCE
3 Problem Statement Since 1998 nearly one-half of DOD systems failed reliability requirements using legacy reliability growth models that do not use system maturity metrics. Purpose of Presentation Demonstrate a correlation model of System Readiness Levels (SRL) and Reliability Growth Models. General Approach o Develop Monte-Carlo Optimization model o Correlate SRL model output to Reliability parameters Nov 2013 GET CONNECTED to LEARN, SHARE, and ADVANCE
4 The 2012 Director of Operational Test & Evaluation report suggests nearly 50% of DoD programs from did not meet reliability requirements. Fraction of DOD programs meeting reliability requirements at IOT&E from FY97-FY12 [Gilmore 2012] Nov 2013 GET CONNECTED to LEARN, SHARE, and ADVANCE
5 Numerous method of system maturity assessment have been developed. (1) Manufacturing Readiness Level Integration Readiness Level Technology Readiness Level TTRL MDA Checklist AD2 RD3 System Readiness Level (UK) System Readiness Level (Sauser) TRRA ITAM We will focus on the Sauser SRL. (1) Azizian (2009) 5 13 Nov 2013 GET CONNECTED to LEARN, SHARE, and ADVANCE
6 SRL Combines Technology and Integration Readiness Levels SRL developed in mid-2000s (1). SRL assesses system readiness for subsequent phases. Early SRL used matrix math to combine Technology and Integration Readiness Levels. Several SRL calculation methods in literature. Technology Readiness Level Integration Readiness Level System Readiness Level (1) Sauser et al, Nov 2013 GET CONNECTED to LEARN, SHARE, and ADVANCE
7 TRL assess the maturity of Critical Technology Element technologies USING SRL TO IMPROVE RELIABILITY 1980 s NASA uses to asses space technology Selected for use in DOD TRA assessments. 2000s Used with IRL to Develop SRL metric.

(4) Component/Breadboard ~ Lab Env. (3) Analytical/Experimental Proof-of-Concept (2) Technology Concept (1) Basic Principles (1) DOD TRA Deskbook, TRL Hardware definitions (1) TRL TRL TRL TRL TRL TRL TRL TRL TRL TRL TRL Nov 2013 GET CONNECTED to LEARN, SHARE, and ADVANCE
8 IRL developed as a new measurement tool to complement TRL (1, 2) IRL Scale IRL Scale Description 9 Mission Proven through successful mission operations. 8 Mission Qualified through test and evaluation 7 Verified and Validated with sufficient detail. 6 Integration can Accept, Translate and Structure information 5 Sufficient Control to establish, manage, and terminate the integration. 4 Sufficient detail in Quality and Assurance of the integration. 3 Compatibility between technologies is established. 2 Interaction of technologies is characterized. 1 Interface between technologies is established. (1, 2) Sauser et al., 2008 & Nov 2013 GET CONNECTED to LEARN, SHARE, and ADVANCE
9 Applying SRL to Reliability Growth model parameters Step #1: Optimization Model Monte-Carlo model evaluates SRL parameters over time Eventually develop a full Constrained Optimization model Step #2: Correlation of SRL and RGM parameters SRL and RGM parameter relationships are NOT causally related! Correlation analysis supports SRL integration with RGM evaluations 9 13 Nov 2013 GET CONNECTED to LEARN, SHARE, and ADVANCE
10 Step #1: Optimization Model Prior research (1, 2) applies SRL to program cost/schedule. We expand SRL applications to Reliability Growth. SRL Model Parameters Sample SRL system and Reliability Growth Model parameters. Reliability Growth Model Parameters 3-Component TRL system Monte-Carlo model for TRL & IRL TRL & IRL transition probabilities P[TRL+}, P[IRL+] Exponential data Component reliability increases with increased system complexity Series-Reliability System model assumed (1, 2) Ramirez-Marquez et al., 2008 & Nov 2013 GET CONNECTED to LEARN, SHARE, and ADVANCE

11 SRL Monte-Carlo Model Model run: 100 time steps. TRL & IRL = t = 0. P(TRL+) = P(IRL+) = SRL changes over time. SRL(t) t t Nov 2013 GET CONNECTED to LEARN, SHARE, and ADVANCE
12 Step #2: Correlation of SRL and RGM parameters Optimization model provides SRL parameters for Correlation analysis. MIL-HDBK-189C (1) provides selected RGM parameters. SRL and RGM parameters for correlation analysis. SRL Parameters Selected RGM Parameters (1) SRL vs. time - SRL(t) SRL Growth - SRL dt (t) SRL Growth Potential - SRL GP (t) = 1 SRL(t) MTBF Growth Rate - MTBF dt (t) MTBF Growth Ratio - M o /M I (t) MTBF Growth Potential - MTBF GP (t) = 1 - MTBF OBJ (1) MIL-HDBK-189C (2011) Nov 2013 GET CONNECTED to LEARN, SHARE, and ADVANCE
13 Correlation Analysis of SRL & RGM parameters. Consider the same system but from a Reliability perspective TRL-1 IRL [1,2] TRL-2 IRL [2,3] TRL-3 SRL system definition using a Series Reliability system assumption Equivalent Reliability system definition Nov 2013 GET CONNECTED to LEARN, SHARE, and ADVANCE

14 Notional System Mean-Time-Between-Failure Data MTBF increases as IRL & TRL increase (1,2) Assumes Exponential failure rates (3) Equally weights components (1) Ramirez-Marquez (2008). (2) Ramirez-Marquez (2009). (3) Kececioglu (1993) Nov 2013 GET CONNECTED to LEARN, SHARE, and ADVANCE
15 Applying SRL to T&E Investment Literature considers problems of resource allocation for development costs (1, 2) Resource priorities directed to less mature systems and components Test Hrs. 5to6 6to7 7to8 8to9 Total TRL TRL TRL IRL-1, (PRIMARY IRL OPTION) IRL-1, (SECONDARYT IRL OPTION) IRL-2, SRL [ ] Totals Totals (* SECONDARY IRL OPTION costs less!)

16 Results Provided a Monte-Carlo SRL correlation model for Reliability Growth Demonstrated strong correlation of SRL and Reliability parameters Positive correlation of MTBF SYS (t) vs. SRL(t) = Positive correlation of MTBF GP (t) vs. SRL GP (t) = Negative correlation of MTBF GP (t) vs. SRL(t) = Negative correlation of MTBF SYS (t) vs. SRL GP (t) = Suggested application of SRL to T&E resource allocation problems. Conclusions Extend SRL models to Reliability and T&E resource allocation Expand SRL mathematics beyond current approaches Real SRL and Reliability data needed for full analysis Nov 2013 GET CONNECTED to LEARN, SHARE, and ADVANCE
