This new process will maximise reuse in designs at all levels, from high-level operational concepts through to DO-178 certification evidence. It aims to achieve a step-change in quality, whilst reducing development cost and lead-time, through the introduction of Model-Based Product Lines for all on-engine software. Rolls-Royce Control Systems is implementing a development process transformation project, called ECOSIStem. Our Journey Towards Model-Based Product Lines He has held a variety of roles, including technical manager for Typhoon EJ200’s fuel control system, chief of technology for TRW Aeronautical Systems, quality and product safety director, director of programme management, Trent 1000 programme director, and vice president of strategy and business development.Ĭhris was on the UK Aerospace Innovation and Growth Team (2002–2003) that outlined the UK 20-year aerospace strategy, and from 2009–2011, he was a member of the Aerospace Technology Steering Group, integrating the UK equipment sector inputs for the National Aerospace Technology Strategy. He has worked on satellite cryogenic cooling systems, airframe electrical power generation, flight control actuation, and engine control systems. He has more than 29 years as a professional engineer and manager in space and aeronautical equipment systems, including new product introduction of mechanical, electronic and electrical systems, and products. in electrical engineering from the University of Idaho.Ĭhris is an engineering and technology executive for Rolls-Royce Engine Control Systems. in electrical engineering from Oregon State University and an M.S.
