Systems Development

At Bearfield and Bartsch Consulting, we have perfected an approach to systems development (not just IT systems) that addresses challenges head-on. Using a systematic business process, we define precise requirements for each system. This ensures a solid foundation for optimal design, engineering, development, and even sustainment. We will lead your team through our process to develop and deliver:

System Design
System Architecture
Requirements Traceability Matrix
An accurate Bills of Materials
Accurate timelines and project schedules
Definitive resource needs
Comprehensive management and evaluation criteria
Statement of Work (for outsourced functions)

We have consistently applied this methodology across numerous initiatives, achieving a proven track record of 100% success in meeting time, budget, and functionality or quality goals for every project we have supported.

Getting The Project Back on Track

While we weren’t involved in the initial planning of every client’s project, we understand that even well-structured initiatives can encounter unforeseen challenges. If a project is losing momentum, facing unexpected roadblocks, or falling behind schedule, acting quickly is critical to prevent wasted time and resources. This is where we excel. Our expertise goes beyond setting up successful projects—we specialize in course-correcting those that have veered off track. By identifying root causes, realigning objectives, and restoring focus, we ensure your project regains momentum and gets back on the path to success.

Ongoing Management & Sustainment

Once we have your system up and running there are numerous ongoing operations and maintenance actions that must be taken to keep the optimal performance of the system. This can include analysis of your systems and creating the following:

Concept of Operations
Operational and Maintenance Plans
Lifecycle Sustainment Plans
Sparing Plans
Manpower and Personnel Plans
Training and Knowledge Management Plans
Organizational Development

Failed Systems

Even the best-designed systems will encounter failures that can significantly impact operations and diminish the value delivered to customers or the company. These issues can often be exceptionally complex and challenging to troubleshoot, diagnose, and resolve. Ideally, when our team is engaged before a system failure occurs, we can leverage predictive analysis to proactively:

Develop Troubleshooting guides
Conduct Failure Modes Effects Analysis

Identify single points of failure
Significantly reduce downtime and outages
Improve System Uptime
Increase System Efficiency and Effectiveness
Evaluate Logistics and Vendor Support
Identify areas of improvement

Additional Support

There are instances when we are called upon to go beyond analysis and offer direct, hands-on support to our clients throughout the development and implementation of systems. For these clients, we have provided comprehensive project management and technical expertise, ensuring seamless system deployment and ongoing operations. In some cases, we have also delivered life cycle management support, overseeing the entire system life cycle from inception to sustainment. For these clients, our services have included:

Project Management Support
