Preparation Instructions

1Format.The Human Engineering Simulation Concept format shall be contractor selected. Unless effective presentation would be degraded, the initially used format arrangement shall be used for all subsequent submissions.

2Content.The Human Engineering Simulation Concept shall contain the following information:

2.1Rationale and general description.The need for a mockup or simulation program shall be described. The overall simulation concept shall be described. Benefits to be derived shall be stated. The interrelationships between mockups, simulators, and other human engineering analysis, design support, and test and evaluation techniques shall be described.

2.2Techniques.Each simulation technique and procedure proposed by the contractor shall be fully described. Rationale for the selection of techniques shall be given. The specific contributions of each technique to human engineering analysis, design support, and test and evaluation shall be stated. Previous efforts conducted by the contractor or others to validate each proposed technique shall be described, including a discussion of results.

2.3Intended use.The intended use of each simulation technique shall be described with regard to each of the following:

2.3.1Human performance and workload analysis, test, and demonstration.

2.3.2System design development, test and demonstration.

2.3.3System effectiveness studies, tactics development, and verification.

2.3.4Development and verification of operator skill, knowledge, and other training data.

2.3.5Operator procedures development and verification, including degraded mode and emergency procedures.

2.3.6Training equipment design and verification studies.

2.3.7Development and verification of technical publications.

2.4Schedule.A detailed schedule shall be identified. Compatibility between the simulation schedule and the release of program analysis, design, and test products for each area of utilization described in paragraph 2.c. above shall be described.

2.5Facilities and special requirements.Simulation facilities shall be described. Any requirements to utilize government facilities, models, data, or other government property shall be identified. If the contractor requires participation by government personnel (e.g., as subjects in simulation studies), appropriate information shall be provided - such as number and qualifications of personnel, desired level of participation, and schedule of participation.

2.6Scenarios and mission descriptions.The scenarios and missions to be simulated shall be described. Information on mission objectives, geography, threats, weather conditions, or any other data relevant to system simulation shall be presented.
