Enterprise TRIMSEnterprise TRIMSSystemSystem


Enterprise TRIMS Major Components:

• TRIMS v4 (Standalone, Windows Application)

• WebTRIMS v1 (Web-based version of TRIMS)

Enterprise TRIMS System

A combination of tools, to handle divergent requirements.


TRIMS v4

• Mature & robust, with many features and capabilities

• Based on unique, process-based risk approach, that has proven itself for over 20 years

• Recognized & approved by AT&L

• Supports the Concurrent Engineering Model

• Version 4.2 supports classified data processing

Enterprise TRIMS Components

WebTRIMS v1

• Centralized, shared data storage (multi-user access)

• Secure (256-bit SSL) access

• User-validation required

• Role-based rights-management (Program Manager/User/Guest)

• Imports from/Exports to TRIMS v4 data format

• Real-time Feedback

A combination of tools, to handle divergent requirements.

Step 1: Design – Maximize WebTRIMS internal design compatibility with TRIMS v4 Element structure

Step 2: Initial Development – 2-part approach:

(1) develop a 2-way conversion capability that can load TRIMS v4 Element files into WebTRIMS, or export WebTRIMS Data to create TRIMS v4 Element files

(2) Develop main display and basic Template/Question/Risk editing code

Step 3: Develop Filtering code

Step 4: Develop Reporting code

Step 5: Develop Baselining and other support code

WebTRIMS Development Plan

With this approach, a usable system is available after Step 2.

90% of the effort involved in using a Risk Management system is Data Collection.

This involves many people, over many hours, and is the aspect of TRIMS with the greatest need to be web-based.

With the XML import/export capability, a Program’s Element file can be created

and baselined in TRIMS v4, then uploaded/converted into the web-based

system so data collection can begin.

When reports are needed, the Risk Admin can create a “snapshot” of the web data by exporting the WebTRIMS data to XML, and importing it into TRIMS v4. The Risk Admin can then generate any

needed reports using the TRIMS v4 program.
