EDUCATING ORGANIZATIONS AND EMPLOYEES
CAPABILITY MATURITY MODEL INTEGRATION (CMMI®) TRAINING

CLIENT:
A U.S Government organization that maintains software for military aircraft systems.

CHALLENGE:
While keeping their fleet serviceable and safe in today's dynamic military environment, our customer maintains software systems that are decades old. They needed Techrizon to help them make the transition from a Software Capability Maturity Model (SW CMM) Level 4 organization to CMMI Level 5.

SOLUTION:
Techrizon enhanced the knowledge base of our CMMI implementer and process improvement engineers by certifying them to teach introductory CMMI courses. In doing so, we developed an instructor base with a competency that was unlike anything else available in the industry. Having already implemented the model and been appraised at CMMI Maturity Level 5, Techrizon instructors provided far superior training at a competitive price. The demand and success of this program continues to grow through customer referrals as Techrizon instructors work diligently to improve and evolve coursework and training techniques.

VIRTUAL REALITY TRAINING SYSTEM (VRTS)
TRAINING JOINT MILITARY FORCES

CLIENT:
An American military unit, either deployed or preparing to deploy. This unit is responsible for training and sustaining its soldiers, sailors, airmen, and marines as Joint Fires Observers (JFOs) and Joint Tactical Air Controllers (JTACs). This training focuses on 1) employing fires and 2) the effects of those fires on major combats and on stability operations.

CHALLENGE:
To develop a fully immersive, photorealistic training simulation and combat environment. The simulation and environment must provide a very high degree of realism for the training. It must also be compatible with other virtual, live, and constructive individuals and units.

SOLUTION:
Techrizon offers a Virtual Reality Training System (VRTS) that has the ability to place military officers, NCOs, and enlisted personnel into a tactical environment identical to where they are being deployed. The result is a cost-effective training tool that ensures JFOs and JTACs are truly prepared to progress to live fire training. This ensures a better utilization of limited ammunition resources. VRTS is adaptable for Homeland Security, Law Enforcement, First Responders and other high-profile training environments.

VRTS simulates trainees' senses by creating a hauntingly realistic environment. Environmental and physical conditions can be altered to replicate specific geographical areas of the world. These replications include the climatic conditions, sounds, and threats service members are expected to face upon arrival.

During VRTS, the instructor executes a vignette. This is designed not only to task trainees but also to simultaneously monitor their progress, alter their training conditions and stress their decision-making abilities, all while the trainees execute the type of technical tasks required when engaging enemy targets with all aspects of lethal and non-lethal effects.

Upon completion of the exercise, the service members receive an after-action review of their performance. Everyone's actions are discussed and analyzed. When necessary, individual trainees return to VRTS for additional training and evaluation.

After participating in a VRTS, experienced soldiers at Fort Sill, Oklahoma, said: "If only we'd had this before we went to Iraq and Afghanistan." In addition, Middle-Eastern students attending school near Fort Sill were amazed at the level of detail provided in the VRTS that depicts a Middle-Eastern urban setting.
