Use & Relationship
The System/Software Integration Laboratory (SIL) Development & Management Plan describes the contractor's proposed processes for developing, implementing, and maintaining a SIL that will be used to support integration of aircraft subsystems, to conduct laboratory development testing that leads to aircraft ground testing, and to aid accident investigations. This plan will provide critical insight into the contractor's ability to develop, implement, and sustain such a system/software integration laboratory during the life-cycle of the aircraft. The SIL Development & Management Plan also supports military aircraft system development, aircraft testing requirements, and quick-reaction mishap investigations.

2FormatContractor-specified format is acceptable.
3ContentThe SIL Development & Management Plan shall describe the contractor's process for developing and implementing a SIL by outlining its overall laboratory structure and organization, company lab-related processes & procedures, security infrastructure, scheduling, and resource support. The SIL Development & Management Plan shall also include the description of SIL use, and the description of the plan for SIL maintenance.
3.1The SIL development and implementation description shall include
aProcesses used to plan, develop, and implement a high-fidelity SIL.
bManagement concepts related to systems development and integration laboratories.
cProcesses for integrating contractor's system/software development laboratory operations with the SIL.
dProcesses for integrating subcontractor/supplier software development laboratory operations into the SIL.
eProcesses to maintain configuration control within the SIL.
fProcesses/procedures used to ensure availability of qualified staff for the SIL that ensure minimal disruption of SIL operations.Include education, experience, and security clearance requirements for personnel assigned to the SIL.
gStandard security procedures proposed to protect government-furnished and contractor-developed classified materials that will be used in the SIL.Include processes used to ensure the SIL complies with applicable information assurance requirements (i.e., IA controls) as tailored from DoDI 8510.01.
hProcesses for scheduling the SIL that maximize utilization of this laboratory asset.
3.2The SIL use description shall include the following
aPlanned uses of the SIL in areas of aircraft system/subsystem development, integration, and testing.
bProcedures for evaluating software product reuse or commercial off-the-shelf software packages that are candidates for inclusion in the aircraft system.
cProposed procedures to support quick-reaction mishap investigations.
dProcedures to provide Level 1 training, as required.
3.3The SIL maintenance plan description shall include
aPlanned SIL-specific component maintenance and support processes/procedures that ensure high levels of availability for the SIL.
bProcesses for maintaining SIL concurrency with all aircraft version configurations within the Air Force (AF) inventory to include capability for handling aircraft software block updates and ensuring backwards compatibility.
cProcesses/procedures proposed for the SIL that will be used to maintain the software components making up the laboratory.Describe how routine software updates (operating system upgrades, virus definitions and algorithms, etc.) will be installed and tested to ensure minimal SIL operations disruptions.
dProcesses/procedures proposed for the SIL that will be used to maintain the hardware components making up the laboratory.Describe how preventive maintenance will be performed, and if there is a hardware failure, procedures to repair the defective part(s) to minimize SIL operations disruptions.
