Meeting Description:
In a presentation titled, “A Celebrating Digital Engineering Wins,” Mr. Daniel Hettema, Director of Digital Engineering, Modeling & Simulation (DEM&S), will describe how DEM&S and the Department is moving the Digital Engineering (DE) needle forward. This includes addressing challenges in transitioning to full digital implementation with the Defense Industrial Base. By recognizing and celebrating small wins, DEM&S aims to foster organizational change that will accelerate DE acquisition, delivering more effective solutions to the warfighter. In his presentation, Mr. Hettema will challenge attendees to take on the role of change managers to meet key initiatives in progress. The session will pinpoint critical transition points for analysis and operational efficiency, as well as identify potential gaps for future needs. To leverage the benefits of DE processes and tools for optimizing designs in the virtual world, each Service has developed implementation plans to realize the focus areas outlined in the National Defense Science and Technology Strategy (NDS).
