CORPORATE SPONSORED RESEARCH AT AEROSPACE CORPORATION IS SUPPORTING CONCURRENT ENGINEERING SIMULATION OF SATELLITE SYSTEMS USING AN INTEGRATED COMPUTER NETWORK. THE SOFTWARE PROGRAM, CALLED TEAM (TECHNIQUE FOR ENGINEERING ANALYSIS MANAGEMENT), UTILIZES COMMON DATABASE ARCHITECTURE AND ELECTRONIC NETWORKS. RESULTS OF THE INITIAL PROJECT DEVELOPMENT ARE EXPLAINED, THE RATIONALE FOR THE PROTOTYPE DEVELOPMENT AND ITS OBJECTIVES ARE HIGHLIGHTED; A CONCURRENT ENGINEERING EXAMPLE IS FEATURED TO DEMONSTRATE HOW TEAM MAY BE USED TO EVALUATE DESIGN CHANGES, MATERIAL CHANGES, SCHEDULE IMPACTS, VEHICLE PROCESSING ALTERNATIVES, AND FACILITY UTILIZATION. THIS PAPER DESCRIBES THE STRUCTURE, THE OVERALL TEAM MODEL, THE MANUFACTURING SIMULATION, AND LESSONS LEARNED FROM THE DEVELOPMENT.
