space service infrastructures" Dr. ing. Marco Lisi
Skoltech, Skolkovo, Russian Federation April, 2016
Objectives • To recognize the importance of services in today’s
world economy (including the aerospace sector); • To explain what a service-oriented, large and complex
system means; • To introduce a systemic approach to the engineering of
service systems and enterprises; • To suggest that beyond the obvious technological and
technical challenges, a service provision perspective requires a conceptual paradigm shift much more difficult to accept than that required by systems engineering: moving from technologies/products to capabilities and services;
• To propose an innovative Through-Life, Integrated, Concurrent Engineering (TICE) approach, merging Project Management, Systems Engineering, Operations and Logistics. 3
Introduction
• Services are becoming more and more important in today’s world economy;
• Service-oriented, large and complex systems are often critical infrastructures of our society;
• The engineering of service systems and enterprises requires systemic approach, holistic view, customer focus and life cycle perspective;
• New acquisition and contracting schemes are also required;
• A service provision perspective requires a conceptual paradigm shift: moving from technologies/products to capabilities and services.

Service-Oriented, Space-Based Infrastructures
• To achieve the goal of an effective service-oriented, space-based infrastructure a radical (mostly conceptual) paradigm shift is needed: from a technology/mission focused approach
to a service approach
• We need to start from the end, asking ourselves the following questions: – What capabilities do the users need? – How can we make an effective use of existing resources, on
ground and on orbit? – How can we plan for future more flexible and interoperable space
infrastructures?
What do we mean by "service"? • By the term “service” we mean the guaranteed and
committed delivery of a capability to a community of potential customers/users;
• Focus on “commitment” (continued over time) and on
“customer satisfaction”; • “Technical performance” is an essential prerequisite,
but not an objective; • NOTA BENE: services are not alternative to (or in
competition with) technology and goods production. On the contrary, advanced, high value-added services need state-of-the-art technological products and systems to be provided. Examples: – Internet – Wireless communication networks – Electric power distribution infrastructure
18
What is a Service System (Infrastructure)?
• Service (or service-oriented) systems are systems meant to provide value-added services through the use of technology (mainly information and communications and technologies, ICT);
• A “service system” has been defined as a
dynamic configuration of people, technology, organizational networks and shared information (such as languages, processes, metrics, prices, policies, and laws) designed to deliver services that satisfy the needs, wants, or aspirations of customers.
19
Characteristics of Service Systems
• Large and complex systems • Software intensive (several million lines of code) • Capability-based rather than product-based • Organization and governance (human factor) • Technical performance is a prerequisite for
production and delivery of services, not a final objective
• In the definition of the Quality of Service (QoS), requirements related to operations and logistics, in addition to technical ones, assume a very high relevance: Reliability, Availability, Continuity Safety Flexibility Security Expandability Resilience Maintainability Interoperability

21
Why Large, Strategic and Complex Systems?
• The increasing needs of our developed society ask for systemic solutions;
• Capabilities and services, rather than just products, are required (e.g. not cars, trucks, trains, railways, stations, but an integrated transportation system);
• Systems providing advanced capabilities and services are: Large, i.e. geographically distributed and network-centric; Strategic, i.e. providing essential services and
constituting the backbone of our advanced economy; Complex, i.e. based on advanced technologies, highly
software-intensive and requiring sophisticated Concepts of Operations
23
Large and Complex Systems (1/2)
• A large and complex system is a system composed of a large number of interconnected elements, often developed and deployed worldwide, which interact dynamically, giving rise to emergent properties
• Examples of complex systems for civil applications include: global satellite navigation systems air traffic control systems railway control systems space systems such as the International Space Station or
space transportation and exploration vehicles surveillance, Earth observation and Homeland security
systems electric power distribution systems telecommunication systems complex computer networks, including Internet.
24
Large and Complex Systems (2/2)
• A complex system often integrates existing systems (or parts of them) in an overall large-scale architecture containing a large number of interfaces and implementing multiple modes of operation, in a highly dynamic environment;
• Large and complex systems require extensive
logistics and maintenance support capabilities; • Large and complex space-based systems (e.g.
Galileo) are conceived to be in service for a long time; in this case the evolution of the system (up-gradings and modifications) and its obsolescence have to be taken into account from the beginning.
Specifying a Service System
• Functional and technical performance: System Requirements Document (SRD)
• Operational requirements and scenarios: Concept of Operations (CONOPS) document
• Expected service behavior and non-functional performance: Service Level Agreement (SLA)
• A typical SLA defines Key Performance Indicators (KPI’s) and Key Quality Indicators (KQI’s), with target values and target ranges to be achieved over a certain time period.
25
Through-Life Capability Management
• Through-Life Capability Management (TLCM) is an approach to the acquisition and in-service management of a capability over its entire life-cycle, from cradle to grave;
• TLCM means evaluating a capability not just in the terms of a
single piece of equipment, but as a complete system or “system of systems”;
• TLCM recognizes the value of concurrent engineering, being
aware that the initial purchase cost (and risk) of a system is only a small fraction of the total cost of procurement;
• The adoption of a TLCM approach implies the evaluation of all
the costs involved in the utilization of a capability over its entire life-cycle, a.k.a. Total Cost of Ownership.
28
Total Cost of Ownership
• Operators, including government establishments and commercial entities, are emphasizing reduced total cost of ownership of large and complex space systems;
• The Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) approach asks for cost
trade-off’s throughout the total life cycle; • An optimum balance must be found between non-recurring
(CAPEX) development and integration costs and operating (OPEX) costs;
• Scalable architectures, design for reliability/
maintainability/supportability, interface standardization (physical and protocol levels) and SOA (Service-Oriented Architecture) technologies are promising “best practices” to achieve the total cost of ownership reduction goal.

Defence Acquisition System (DAS) DEFINITIONS in DoDI 5000.01 – DAS
• [Performance-Based Logistics]: PMs shall develop and implement performance-based logistics strategies that optimize total system availability while minimizing cost and logistics footprint. Trade-off decisions involving cost, useful service, and effectiveness shall consider corrosion prevention and mitigation. Sustainment strategies shall include the best use of public and private sector capabilities through government/industry partnering initiatives, in accordance with statutory requirements.
• [Systems Engineering]: Acquisition programs shall be managed through the application of a systems engineering approach that optimizes total system performance and minimizes total ownership costs. A modular, open-systems approach shall be employed, where feasible.
• [Total Systems Approach]: The PM shall be the single point of accountability for accomplishing program objectives for total life-cycle systems management, including sustainment. The PM shall apply human systems integration to optimize total system performance (hardware, software, and human), operational effectiveness, and suitability, survivability, safety, and affordability. PMs shall consider supportability, life cycle costs, performance, and schedule comparable in making program decisions. Planning for Operation and Support and the estimation of total ownership costs shall begin as early as possible. Supportability, a key component of performance, shall be considered throughout the system life cycle. 34
Affordability, Supportability, Sustainability
• Future space service infrastructures will be large complex systems, requiring large initial investments, very expensive to operate and maintain, meant to last for long periods of time (decades);
• Three features will then become key to the success of future space service infrastructure projects: – Affordability
– Supportability
– Sustainability

Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) • KPIs are tools that may be used by an organization (in
our case, a service enterprise) to define, measure, monitor and track its performance over time toward the achievement of its goals;
• KPIs must be quantitative and quantifiable; • KPIs need to be tailored to the specific organization
priorities and performance criteria. So a service organization, based on a large, complex, high-technology system infrastructure, will look to KPIs that measure areas of performance such as Availability, Continuity, Mean Time to Repair (MTTR), customer satisfaction indices, etc.;
• KPIs are often of statistical nature: they can be evaluated over fixed or rolling time periods.

in one word:
CONCURRENT ENTERPRISE
Concurrency is the simultaneous involvement by all stakeholders in product development decisions from the outset and throughout the life cycle so that the entire value chain is reciprocally integrated—from idea to customer and back.
1. The bulk of costs are committed at early steps of a development cycle even though not expended until later
2. The cost of fixing faulty upstream decisions at late stages is exponentially greater than at earlier one
3. The opportunity costs of being late to market are very high, e.g., lower share, lower margins
4. Cross-functional teams typically provide a better quality solution to complex, dynamic product development problems than solo individuals—especially at early stages
5. Early simultaneous involvement in product development by cross-functional teams using structured development processes saves time and cost over the life cycle, especially if the design is novel.
Axioms of Concurrency
Opportunità di riduzione del costo del prodotto
Il costo delle modifiche di un progetto aumenta in modo inversamente proporzionale alle possibilità di ridurre il costo del prodotto; è evidente che occorre progettare il prodotto con obiettivi di costo chiari e definiti sin dalle prime fasi della progettazione

Services and "Spirit to Serve"
“Real Power is Service” Pope Francis
“I slept and dreamt that life was joy. I awoke and saw that life was service. I acted and behold, service was joy”
Rabindranath Tagore
“We serve our interests best when we serve the public interest” T. Watson, Jr.
“Joy can be real only if people look upon their life as a service, and have a definite object in life outside themselves and their personal happiness” Lev Tolstoj
Conclusions • Our economy is more and more depending on large,
strategic and complex service infrastructures, based on large, strategic and complex systems;
• The design of a complex service enterprise requires a wide range of skills and expertise's, covering organizational, engineering, social, legal and contractual aspects;
• The acquisition and contracting strategy in the Aerospace & Defense sector is evolving towards service and capability oriented schemes;
• The advent of a services economy imposes a radical conceptual paradigm shift: moving from technologies/products to capabilities and services;
• A Through-life Integrated Concurrent Engineering (TICE) approach is needed, integrating such paradigm shifts as concurrent engineering, design to cost, design for producibility and testability, design for maintenability, modular approach to design, total quality management;
• The “spirit to serve” (call it “customer focus”, if you prefer) is at the basis of all services.
