NSF Workshops to Identify Educational Requirements of the Future Ocean Technical Workforce

about a year ago

The National Science Foundation (NSF) anticipates increased investments in future ocean observing systems, ocean renewable energy systems, and other blue economy industries. Development of new instrumentation, maintenance of and improvements to equipment related to ocean-based systems, and data management efforts to ensure the quality and accuracy of the data and the analysis of large data sets generated by these systems all require a workforce with specialized training in ocean sciences, engineering, manufacturing, and data science. However, there are few academic programs that prepare students with the skills required for the expanding needs of the ocean technology workforce. Therefore, the NSF Directorate for Engineering (ENG), Division of Engineering Education and Centers (EEC) and Division of Civil, Mechanical and Manufacturing Innovation (CMMI); the Directorate for Technology, Innovation and Partnerships (TIP), Division of Innovation and Technology Ecosystems (ITE); the Directorate for Geosciences, Division of Ocean Sciences (OCE); and the Directorate for Education (EDU), Division of Undergraduate Education (DUE) are encouraging proposals for workshops that will engage industry and academia in discussions that identify skills needed and curriculum changes that are required to prepare students to participate in the current and future ocean technical workforce.

Enterprise Parts Management System (EPMS)

about 2 years ago

The Department of Defense (DoD) is seeking a prototype that establishes the capability to manage electronic parts across the enterprise. The purpose of this prototype is to grant visibility into the supply chain, enable better supply chain risk management, allow aggregation of demand, improve purchasing power, enable collaborative solutions to obsolescence and other parts related issues, reduce the risk of counterfeit parts, and enable more DoD wide design modernization. EPMS will enable better microelectronics-focused parts selection and management throughout the entire life cycle of an acquisition program. By aggregating part data at the Service and DoD level, the EPMS will provide unprecedented insight into supply chains enterprise wide. Such insight will lead to improvements in traditional and cyber supply chain risk management, hardware assurance, collaborative solutions to obsolescence and other parts related issues, counterfeit prevention, and DoD wide design modernization. In addition, the demand consolidation made possible by EPMS will increase DoD’s purchasing power through economies of scale.
