Abstract
AbstractThis paper1 discusses how a parametric life cycle cost model (LCC), SEER‐H with Total System Vision (TSV) and SEER‐SEM software estimation model, are used to facilitate the cost impact assessment of Systems Engineering labor and materials for a Major System of Systems project containing both hardware and software components. The main purpose is to introduce the underlying methodology and demonstrate the flexibility of the cost model for developing System Level Costs at the System of Systems Level. Readers are introduced to the model, its premise, and how engineers use it to obtain system level engineering labor and material estimates on a Constellation of 18 earth orbiting Optical Satellites. The system includes the launch vehicles and services, mission control and a world wide tracking antenna sites as well as operational and support costs.
