2 RLM - Commercial in Confidence JORN An Exemplar of
Science/Industry Collaboration in Delivering Cutting Edge RF
Technology Hypothesis Australian companies have a proven capability
to deliver large scale complex projects such as SKA Exemplar
Jindalee Over-The-Horizon Radar project - JORN - is a world class
HF surveillance system delivered by Lockheed Martin acting in a
joint venture arrangement with Tenix (in the decade 1993 to 2003):
RLM At its peak, the JV employed 650 staff in the key systems
engineering, software development and systems integration
disciplines A crucial ingredient for the success of JORN was the
ability of the company to access capabilities of the parent company
technologies including the assignment of 60 specialists into the
program

Concurrent integration/test across 4 radar sites Site shifts : Two
12 hour shifts/day, 7 days/week at each site Site rotations : 2
weeks on/one week off on RDO Effort required 12 teams of 3-4 people
Each shift required a lead, total of 12 shift leads Each site had 2
leads to coordinate the shift teams and between the sites Handover
between teams was sometimes only minutes at the airport Flights
very restricted, In on Tuesday, out on Thursday at WA Families not
allowed on site Many staff did site rotations for 3-4 years
Communication was difficult but essential for success!

Australia and the SKA Project 10 September 2015 37 Lockheed Martin
Proprietary Information Australian companies have a proven
capability to deliver large scale complex projects such as SKA
(JORN An Exemplar of Science/Industry Collaboration in Delivering
Cutting Edge RF Technology) Collaboration is essential - both
Australian companies and government organizations, and
international companies from the SKA Founding Nations A crucial
ingredient for the success of JORN was the ability of the company
to access capabilities of the parent company technologies including
the assignment of 60 specialists into the program to achieve the
delivery objectives SKA will need to do that also with specialists
coming from Founding Nations Lockheed Martin Australia would be
ready to again work closely with the specialist technology
organizations and international companies to provide project
management support (in Australia) to deliver an integrated
system-of-systems SKA.
