  • What is S3000L?

    The ASD S3000L specification establishes a standardized process for defining and managing the support requirements of complex technical systems throughout their entire life cycle. The S3000L standard enables manufacturers and customers alike to maximize system availability, minimize life cycle costs, and improve collaboration across industry and defense programs. SLICwave LC’s S3000L offerings takes full advantage of the specification, allowing users to uniquely tailor product data structure, breakdowns, and meta data around real program requirements, all while retaining ability for standardized exchange between partners. With SLICwave LC S3000L, stakeholders can easily meet program goals, undertake IPS activities, and collaborate with program partners.

  • Support for Global Standards

    SLICwave LC S3000L, along with optional modules, offers compliance with current through-life product support standards, including:

    • ASD Specification S3000L, Issues 1.1 and 2.1

SLICwave LC module diagram with a focus on the S2000M section
  • What is S2000M?

    Widely used as an international standard for material management, S2000M defines the processes and procedures, general requirements, and information for data exchange that governs material management throughout product life cycle. S2000M material management includes illustration breakdowns, configurations, change management, obsolescence, and any other information related to material requirements. S2000M exchange formats and messages provide critical information about the material pertinent to specific provisioning projects in a standard way as this information must be integrated with the other IPS elements. With SLICwave LC S2000M, stakeholders can easily meet program goals, undertake provisioning activities, and collaborate with program partners.

  • Support for Global Standards

    SLICwave LC S2000M, along with optional modules, offers up-to-date compliance with current through-life support standards including:

SLICwave LC module diagram with a focus on the CM-PLM section
  • What is CM-PLM?

    The Configuration Management – Product Life Cycle Management (CM-PLM) Base Tool provides a user-friendly interface for consistent identification, accounting, and change control of a product’s configuration throughout various stages of life cycle. Capture product configuration information –such as parts, documents, drawings, and multi-level bills of material – during conception, design, planning, production, and ongoing support phases. Readily identify, track, and compare these characteristics throughout life cycle across product life cycle stages, from design to post-production support. Reconcile varying bills of materials to ensure they remain synchronized. This Base Tool offers compliance to MIL-STD-973/2549, ANSI 649, EIA-STD 859, and AP 203/232/ PDM Schema.
