Technical Capability: SPA provides top-level decision makers with timely and objective assessments that integrate the technical, operational, programmatic, and business aspects of national security.
Tasking: SPA provides engineering, analysis, and program management services for Government agencies and on a smaller scale, to private industry. Our expert engineering, scientific, and analytical staff consistently develops innovative approaches to problem solving for some of the nation’s most complex programs, including:
Operations Analysis - SPA conducts operations research and systems analysis on a wide variety of issues that impact national security decisions. Our experienced staff excels at developing automated tools that increase productivity and ensure timely and accurate acquisition and analysis of mission-critical information. Our services include force requirement studies, joint warfare assessments, cost effectiveness analysis, modeling and simulation, war game development and support, business process reengineering, physical security analysis, and systems effectiveness studies.
Systems Engineering - SPA provides technical trade-off analysis grounded in sound systems engineering principles. Leaders throughout the Department of Defense turn to us to help tackle their toughest challenges. Our work has included the Vertical Unmanned Aircraft System Analysis of Alternatives, strategic missile and weapon system characteristics definitions, analysis to support selection of strategic warheads for Trident II (D5), tactical missile effectiveness modeling, and technical assessments and recommendations for insertion of new technology into information and electronic warfare programs.
Acquisition Support - SPA expertise spans the program management disciplines, and our employees have first-hand experience with interpreting and implementing the latest Department of Defense Acquisition Policy, including all aspects of acquisition reform. SPA uses tested methodologies and tools designed to ensure sound management of programs. Our proven abilities include: program management/analysis, financial management, technology assessments, and force structure analysis.
Modeling and Simulation - Through analysis, modeling, and simulation systems engineers at SPA help decision makers identify problems, assess risks, optimize resources, develop strategies, and test and refine new ideas. SPA has a talented staff of engineers with experience in analyzing alternative and successor systems as well as conducting technical trade-offs for military and industry clients. Requirements analysis and definition is also a large part of systems engineering at SPA.
Functional Area(s): N/A
Past Performance:
N00024-01-D-7014, NAVSEA, Subcontract: SPA is supporting PEO IWS in R&D, design, engineering, analysis, acquisition and program support for all current and future Navy surface ship and submarine radar systems. SPA is involved in assessment of research and development of new radio-frequency (RF) semiconductors for active phased array radar applications. SPA’s support also extends to major radar acquisition programs for DD(X) and CG(X). SPA has provided modeling and simulation for CG(X) radar performance at various sensitivity levels against a variety of modern and projected threats to aid in the design of the system. In addition to Navy systems, SPA has been engaged in the complex acquisition of the Cobra Judy Replacement ship and radar system for the US Air Force ballistic missile treaty-monitoring mission. SPA has also been the key support contractor for all acquisition, contracting, and program office support for this key National-interest program. SPA also conducted future concept development for the submarine force including developing vision statements, CONOPS, experimentation initiatives, and developing and prioritizing technology development initiatives. Part of this effort included conducting platform capability trade studies to identify key capabilities that have the potential to greatly impact Navy warfighting performance. Government POC: Gene Warner, PEO IWS, 202-781-2267; Dan Goldstein, OPNAV N775, 703-601-0257; Larry Becker, PMS 450, 703-781-5590.
N00421-05-D-0006, NAVAIR, Subcontract: SPA provides PMA-264 with an Air Anti-Submarine Warfare Sensor Roadmap that will assist them with their overall sensor investment strategy and be available for incorporation into the U.S. Navy’s ASW Master Plan. SPA will effectively capture the overarching requirements of the current Maritime Patrol and Reconnaissance Aircraft (MPRA), the next generation Multi-Mission Maritime Aircraft (MMA), Broad Area Maritime Surveillance Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (BAMS UAV), and the MH-60R missions. SPA will integrate the Air ASW Sensor transformation into an Air ASW Sensor Roadmap. Government POC: Gordon Smith, PMA-264, 301-995-7643.
N00039-98-C-0101, SPAWAR, Prime: SPA provided broad spectrum of analytic support to OPNAV N81 assessment process, including operational analysis of naval forces and naval systems performance, special studies, cost and programmatic analyses, modeling and simulation tool development, and wargame support. SPA conducted analysis of naval force and system capabilities across the naval mission set at levels of resolution from system performance level to joint campaign level. Developed baseline naval forces capability and system performance for OPNAV campaign assessments. Supported OSD Analytic Agenda with DPG/MSFD scenario development/review, analysis data, and support for force level naval warfare modeling and simulation in OSD-sponsored studies. Conducted multiple force level analyses in support of OPNAV POM development, issue analyses, and special studies. Conducted analysis of USW system, platform, and force capability across a broad range of analytic scenarios in support of OPNAV warfighting and force structure analyses.
