Colorado Springs, CO - April 3, 2005 - Futron Corporation, headquartered in Bethesda, MD, will be participating at the 21 st National Space Symposium, April 4-7 at The Broadmoor in Colorado Springs. Visit us at Booth #109 in the Exhibit Center for information and demonstrations of our products and services. Exhibit highlights include:
- Our most recent White Papers: "Probabilistic Risk Assessment as a Decision Tool for NASA's Exploration Systems Enterprise. " This White Paper demonstrates how implementation of a PRA strategy to assess safety and reliability can play a key role throughout the entire life cycle of major projects in order to achieve mission objectives." Vulnerability Assessment: The Methodology of Choice for Homeland Defense and Critical Infrastructure Protection, " applies Futron's Vulnerability Assessment methodology to the area of critical infrastructure protection for the national security/defense community. This novel approach accomplishes Futron's goal without the need for quantification and without the presence of uncertainty in the results.
- VISION: A demonstration of VISION, a customizable Project Health Management Information System (PHMIS) that allows executives to analyze and assess the state of health of individual projects and portfolios of projects and provides them with appropriate data and information from which to make key decisions.
- FCC Filings.com: A demonstration of FCC Filings.com, the satellite industry's source for business and technical information. The FCC Filings.com service provides users access to every satellite-related application, comment and licensing document filed at the FCC.
- IRMA: A demonstration of IRMA (Integrated Risk Management Application), a risk management database application that works with our Risk Management and Analysis services to identify, control, track, and communicate risk. Versions are currently deployed for the International Space Station, Space Shuttle, and the NASA Engineering and Safety Center.
- Space Art: Stop by our exhibit booth each day to view a unique painting created by Phil Smith, a Futron employee in attendance at the Symposium. His paintings seek to convey how dramatic space is without over-dramatizing the subject. His objective is to render environments in space as places people can call home. We are hoping that this display will provoke thought and stir the imagination about human's future in space.
