A systems approach to creating a corporate internal information distribution system

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

The corporate internal information distribution system is designed using the systems engineering model. This system enhances the internal distribution of documents within Lockheed Martin. This distribution system is much timelier and more cost effective than the current means of distribution. Although unable to totally replace the current distribution systems, this system does save Lockheed Martin a considerable amount of money in distribution costs as a complementary system. The definition of need sets the stage for the design of this system. Advanced system planning provides operational requirements and a conceptual design. Function analysis helps to identify system components and facilitates requirements allocation. The detail design specifies the individual components, which make up the total system, and sets forth an implementation plan as well as a plan for test and evaluation of the integrated system.
