Abstract
This case study describes a user-centered system design process that was undertaken by a team of multidisciplinary engineers supporting the Joint Tactical Radio System Handheld, Manpack and Small Form Fit Program. Motivated by the need to manage the risk associated with designing a compact, software-programmable radio to meet the diverse needs of the joint forces, the team applied cognitive engineering methods at key points during the system development and demonstration phase of the acquisition process. To make sound, data-driven design decisions, the team conducted four research efforts with warfighters to understand their tactical communication needs and the impact that proposed designs would have on mission and individual performance. Key insights and lessons learned from the application of cognitive engineering methods during the process and their impact on system design are discussed.
