The Vision for Space Exploration
THE FUNDAMENTAL GOAL OF THIS VISION IS TO ADVANCE
U.S. SCIENTIFIC, SECURITY, AND ECONOMIC INTEREST
THROUGH A ROBUST SPACE EXPLORATION PROGRAM
Implement a sustained and affordable human and
robotic program to explore the solar system and
beyond Extend human presence across the solar
system, starting with a human return to the Moon
by the year 2020, in preparation for human
exploration of Mars and other destinations Develo
p the innovative technologies, knowledge, and
infrastructures both to explore and to support
decisions about the destinations for human
exploration and Promote international and
commercial participation in exploration to
further U.S. scientific, security, and economic
interests.

Integrated Collaborative Environment
ICE is web-centric environment which will be used
by industry, academia and government for
sharing, collaborating, integrating, accessing
and controlling management information and
product data defining all of the products which
are part of Exploration Systems.

• Single source access to all ESMD data
• Integrated programmatics
• Accessibility from anywhere in the world

ICE is the authoritative source for all program
data

ICE Major Components

• Product Life Cycle Management w/ Integration Bus
  enables access to all sources of authoritative
  program data resident in multiple data sources.
• Programmatic Management Management of all
  programmatic data (cost, schedule, performance,
  risk) as well as providing a single view into
  information allowing users to develop earned
  value metrics and risk mitigation plans.
• Project Collaboration Application for sharing
  and teaming among all ICE constituents that
  provides access control, discussion forums,
  resource management and project reporting.
• Process Automation (Workflow) automated process
  management ensuring consistency across programs.
• Visualization web-centric capability providing
  2D and 3D visual collaboration, mock-up,
  prototyping, review and study as part of the
  product development process.

ICE Integration Options CEV RFP

• Option 1 Use NASA ICE as contractor work area
• Option 2 Deploy an Agent to a Single Repository
  of all Contractor Data
• Option 3 Integrate with ICE using an
  integration layer

Why ICE?

• ICE Compresses ESMD Program/Project Delivery
  Schedules By
• Enabling simultaneous development and
  synchronized releases of multiple independently
  developed systems as a deployable package to NASA
• Acceleration of alternative designs and systems
  for ESMD
• Providing a single collaboration environment
  enabling the compression of numerous critical
  process life cycles.
• ICE Reduces ESMD Program/Project Performance Risk
  By
• Providing better program visibility, control and
  decisions throughout the program life cycle
• Enabling assessment and review of ESMD
  Program/Project components throughout the
  development life cycle
• Enabling virtual test and evaluation of digital
  representations of systems
• ICE Reduces ESMD Program/Project Cost By
• Better and faster selection and incorporation of
  technologies
• Reduction in travel costs and paper based
  communication costs
• ICE Improves Mission Assurance and Mission
  Safety
• Ensures availability of all data related to ESMD
  products during ESMD operations key lessons
  learned from Space Shuttle Station

Summary

• ICE is the authoritative source of all ESMD data.
• ICE compresses ESMD program/project schedules
  reduces risks reduces costs and improves
  mission assurance and safety.
• ICE is more than a data repository. ICE enables,
  supports and integrates business processes.
• ICE is more than Windchill. ICE will be a set of
  tools integrated together and accessed through a
  single interface.
• ICE will be the means by which contractors
  deliver data to the NASA.
