Precise Systems All-In Open Architecture(s)
Lexington Park, MD, November 6, 2024 – Precise Systems – a leading provider of mission-critical support and innovative solutions for the defense and government sectors and beyond – is thrilled to showcase and exclusively sponsor the launch of the new MOSA Editorial Book. The MOSA Ebook is published by OpenSystems Media, a well-respected group that brings to engineering audiences the Military Embedded Systems and Embedded Computing Design magazines, targeted webinars and conferences.
With growing Modular Open Systems Approach (MOSA) strategies in Tri-Service programs and upgrades, the momentum in the defense marketspace is rapidly changing the way the Department of Defense is developing the latest technologies. This is recognized even more so via ongoing collaboration from Industry rolling out new Open Architecture (and Open Standards) products.
Recently, Precise Systems expanded its own Open Architecture team of experts through the acquisition of TES-I, completed in August. TES-I added several Industry talents to the Precise Systems family; a valuable fit encompassing agile embedded and enterprise systems, software, and hardware engineering.
The new MOSA Ebook was distributed by OpenSystems Media to over 15,000 subscribers. It includes articles from leaders and influencers heavily involved in OA. Of special note is the interview by CAPT Jarrod Hair, Program Manager of NAVAIR PMA-209 on ‘NAVAIR leveraging MOSA in avionics systems’. All-in with OA resources and capabilities, Precise Systems remains firmly dedicated to supporting the warfighter by providing even stronger advantages against peer-on-peer adversaries.

Precise Attends First-Ever MOSA Industry & Government Summit & Expo
LEXINGTON PARK, MD, November 17, 2023 – On September 18th and 19th, 2023, the first-ever Modular Open Systems Approach (MOSA) Industry and Government Summit and Expo brought together more than 1,500 exhibitors, attendees, and partners representing federal offices, industry executives, and subject matter experts from across the DoD. Included in these attendees were members of our PMA-209 Avionics Architecture Team (AAT) and Common Mission Computers and Displays (CMCD) IPT Team – Sally Bixby Chris Slyfield, Jason Morris, and Bryan Stovall.
The two-day event included Leadership Keynotes and panels; technical and business sessions; and exhibitor product and capability demonstrations from a broad array of MOSA experts. The event also included a tech innovation challenge aspect which provided companies an opportunity to present their latest product(s) to a panel of judges from Tri-Services and Industry. The MOSA Summit provided first-hand engagement with top government offices on initiatives, as well as with leading Industry executives and authorities implementing MOSA.
Keynote speakers included HON. Heidi Shyu, Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering; HON. Nickolas Guertin, Director of Operational Test and Evaluation; Christopher Garrett, Technical Advisor for US Air Force Life Cycle Management Center; and John Whitley, Former Acting Secretary of the US Army. At the Expo, attendees engaged directly with US Army PEO Aviation, US Army DEVCOM C5ISR Center, US Navy NAVAIR Air Combat Electronics Program Office, and US Air Force Life Cycle Management Center at their individual booths.
The CMCD IPT Team within PMA-209 presented at the Army PEO Aviation booth and Jason Morris had the opportunity to participate in the Army Aviation Mission Computing Environment Panel session, which discussed the challenges of implementing Open Standards. This opportunity made it possible to discuss all the work the CMCD IPT has been doing within PMA-209, for over a decade, along with the recent collaboration with the Army PEO Aviation. The panel discussion included a synopsis of all the work the CMCD IPT has been doing to bring flexibility and interoperability within Naval Aircraft using Open Standards.
As part of this booth presentation, Bryan Stovall speaks of his experience, saying, “I was privileged to be a part of the first-ever MOSA Summit. It was great to see how so many DoD Vendors/Suppliers have embraced the concept of open standards. Understandably, the DoD would like to move away from ‘vendor-lock’ and moving to modular-based open standards will help to reach that goal. Based on my experience at the MOSA Summit, the vendors that attended do not see the move as a threat to their business, but rather as a logical progression to help strengthen our armed forces.”
At the AAT booth – in collaboration with the Army DEVCOM C5ISR Center and Air Force Life Cycle Management Center – Chris Slyfield and Sally Bixby, along with the PMA-209 team, put a spotlight on a coordinated mission built on common DoD Open Architecture Standards in real-time interoperability. Other AAT booth demo stations featured a new Technical Starter Kit – a complete package for Learning and Implementing a FACE™ Application; plus, the HOST/Hardware Open Systems Technologies framework V5.0 recently released; the new Data Modeling Video Series, and more.
Precise is proud to have such a well-rounded presence representing our Team at the first-ever MOSA Summit. We look forward to future attendance and gaining new knowledge to better innovate at the edge of our nation’s warfighters.
