9BAE Systems(Provided by Michael D’Ambrosa, the BAE Systemsrepresentative to the IPRC)BAE Systems has a proud heritage that dates back to manned flight andearly wireless communications. From the early days when pioneer A.V.Roe built his first airplane that flew little farther than the Wright Brothersat Kitty Hawk to the wireless telegraph operators who saved hundredsby getting the distress signal out from the Titanic to the perilous WorldWar II missions over Europe in Lancaster bombers to the inaugural flightof the world’s first vertical takeoff fighter to the total systems integrationsolutions today’s civil and military customers need, BAE Systems’ heritageof evolution and mergers has created a global leader that has a proudpast and an eye toward the future.Today BAE Systems is an international company located primarily inthe UK and US engaged in the development, delivery, and support ofadvanced defense and aerospace systems in the air, on land, at sea, andin space. The company designs, manufactures, and supports military aircraft,surface ships, submarines, fighting vehicles, radar, avionics, communications,electronics, and guided weapon systems. It is a pioneer intechnology with a heritage stretching back hundreds of years.It is at the forefront of innovation, working to develop the next generationof intelligent defense systems.We are proud to be a corporate sponsor of the International <strong>Process</strong><strong>Research</strong> Consortium (IPRC). It reflects our continuing interest in processimprovement, as reflected on our emphases on internal researchand development, our training programs that include partnering withvarious universities, and our relationship with the SEI and other processfocusedorganizations. We have developed a Virtual University to ensurea coordinated and integrated approach to education and skills-capabilitydevelopment within BAE Systems and to maximize leverage from ourpartnerships in education and academia.We have an Advanced Technology Centre with a focus on systems engineeringconcerns. It delivers frontline research and technology to BAESystems, its joint venture organizations, and customers. Its role is toidentify and develop technologies, systems, concepts, and processes thatwill maintain BAE Systems’ position as a leading edge organization andenable future growth. Its world-class scientists, technicians and researcherswork across a wide range of disciplines including micro and nanotechnology, deep space telemetry, human-machine interfaces, materialsproperties, mathematical modeling, and electronic sensors.94 Scenarios | IPRC <strong>Framework</strong>
