OSCAM Navy


	OSCAM Navy

Developed to address operating and support costs for naval platforms and their sub-systems, OSCAM Navy comprises OSCAM (Ship) and OSCAM (Shipboard System).

Using System Dynamics, OSCAM Navy provides full O&S coverage based on the knowledge of subject experts and experienced cost analysts.

The architecture of the models are based on the US Navy VAMOSC database, providing a comprehensive range of historic datasets that are included as part of the installation, enabling rapid assessment of O&S estimates.

Modeled as a collection of inter-dependent sectors, the OSCAM Navy model provides a structured yet flexible approach to cost estimation. As well as access to historical data, the models can be rapidly populated with user defined data, or a combination of the two. Simulation runs can be carried out quickly, enabling users to build up a series of results to reflect alternative strategies across a range of scenarios.

Also included within the models are a number of additional features, including uncertainty and sensitivity analysis tools.

In common with the other models in the OSCAM group, the advantages of OSCAM Navy include issues relating to the modeling approach used, as well as the data structure and open architecture. For details, please click below.
