Lockheed Martin Space Picks ESTECO’s VOLTA for Framework

ESTECO announces that Lockheed Martin Space has selected VOLTA as the integrated analysis tool for its Total System Model (TSM) framework, as part of its overall digital engineering transformation. 

Developed by ESTECO, VOLTA is a server-based, enterprise platform for Simulation Process and Data Management (SPDM) and design optimization. Its advanced data management and collaboration capabilities will help support Lockheed Martin Space’s initiative for an integrated digital tool ecosystem, the companies report.

Their TSM framework is being built to support the company’s product development efforts and accelerate the delivery of engineering artifacts to downstream consumers. This “ecosystem” is composed of a mix of heritage tools—internal and COTS. The TSM will be the single source of truth for design information in which model data are available and integrated across disciplines. This enables continuous design evolution and synchronization while model data drives the delivery of engineering scope across the full program life cycle, the companies report.

Modern and secure, VOLTA was chosen as the platform that weaves together the digital models, operational procedures and engineering practices that create an integrated digital thread.

“VOLTA’s modern web interface allows for real time collaboration on integrated analysis and multidisciplinary design optimization,” says Roel Van De Velde, vice president of Aerospace and Defense for ESTECO. “Through its tiered access, it’s easy to version control, share and re-use data across teams or between individuals. We are looking forward to supporting Lockheed Martin Space in their Digital Engineering transformation journey.”
