Alana Depew ~ Aug 2000 thru Feb 2002:

Initial responsibility was to quickly review an existing design and perform FMEA of the communication buss module (ASCB) used in the Hawker Horizon, Secondary Power Distribution Assembly (SPDA). The ASCB FMEA was drafted in about 10 weeks and I then assumed Lead RMS responsibility for the 3rd Generation SPDA (new-development pgm). Responsible for coordinating all FMEA activities and making a positive impact on the design by attending design reviews, interfacing with engineering and vendors, performing trade-off studies (directed and self-initiated). When drawings were released, I began working off-site to complete the 3SPDA Analog I/O, ASCB, ARINC 429 FMEAs.  All tasks were compliant / supporting FAR/JAR 29.1309 certification

(Following from HS website:)  

The SPDAs distribute, control and protect electrical power using solid-state power controllers (SSPCs). The SPDAs are designed such that redundant micro-processors and I/O allow them to perform utility management and remote data concentration functions as well. Both the PDAs and SPDAs are being developed as modular assemblies, significantly reducing the time required to remove and replace components. In addition, each SPDA has the ability to host third party utility modules from other suppliers, or to integrate their utility functions entirely within the SPDAs embedded common hardware to perform a variety of control functions, including those of hydraulic systems, fuel systems, and air management systems.
