Systecon's Andreas Viberg attended the conference NATO Life Cycle Management Conference in Brussels and gave a presentation entitled ”The Impact of a Design Change on Reliability, Maintainability and Life Cycle Cost”.

The presentation was divided in two parts and focused first on the importance that Life Cycle Management be carried out continuously as part of the business. Modelling and simulation is a powerful method when performing Life Cycle Management, for example to develop a basis for important decisions. The second part was an example on how Life Cycle Management can be implemented in practice and was about a project Systecon did for BAE Systems on the impact of Life Cycle Cost (LCC) when changing track systems from steel to rubber tracks on the Combat Vehicle 90.

The project was carried out together with BAE Systems and used Systecon's Opus Suite to build an LCC model to analyze the long-term economic effects of changing from steel to rubber tracks for Combat Vehicle 90.
