Documents may include block diagrams and basic system wiring schematics.

• System Design and Integration: Provide assistance to the Government in development of Engineering Change Proposals (ECP) and Time Compliance Technical Orders (TCTO). Execute system installations in accordance with designated ECPs/TCTOs. If deviations from the approved installation methods are required, these must be documented and updated in a follow-on ECP/TCTO.

• Perform system integration at the MSSL and assist as required at various other offsite locations.

• System Discrepancy Support: Perform service desk functions as they relate to Incident Management in support of unclassified and classified enterprise, client, and network services for USCG aviation assets.

Maintain IA oversight and functionality testing of C5ISR systems and provide technical, administrative, and operational IA support to the C5ISC MSSL Government Project Lead in analyzing and identifying Commercial of the shelf (COTS), Government Owned Technology solutions (GOTS), and Open-Source software applications to meet the requirements.

• Software Maintenance: Provide daily support to C5ISC that encompasses tasks necessary in software maintenance activities including scripting, testing, scheduled IA patches, asset software image storage, maintenance of software database, and on-site casualty repair services for fielded assets assistance to units.

• Provide daily support to the C5ISR aviation program in management and development of Virtual Machine (VM) and containerized environments. Some aviation systems have transitioned to running multiple tools as VM's (eg. Nessus Vulnerability Scanning).

• Use configuration management tools provided by the Government to enter and maintain configuration data as directed by the COR. Current tools in use include, but are not limited to, the Aviation Logistics Management Information System (ALMIS) and the Authorized Software List (ASL).

• Make use of static analysis tools (e.g., ACAS Nessus) provided by the Government to mitigate security vulnerabilities in software development.

• Use management tools (currently Enterprise Project Management (EPM) tool (based on Microsoft Project Professional and Project Server) for project management and tracking of resource hours) provided by the Government to record and track progress towards completion of assigned tasks. Keep track of average team velocity and include this metric in the monthly status reports.

• Make use of the Government provided Security Content Automated Protocol (SCAP) Compliance Checker and the Security Technical Implementation Guidance (STIG) viewer to capture compliance of C5ISC supported aviation C5ISR systems with DISA mandated STIG's.
