2020-06-17: Resilient Hospital Reference Model (RHRM) MBSE Project - An Update (Pafford)
Mike Pafford gets a Chapter Caffeine Delivery System and a Certificate of Appreciation from our Programs Director, Clinton Hilliard.
Date: Wednesday, June 17, 2020
Speaker: Mike Pafford, a 22-year INCOSE member, and past Chesapeake Chapter President, is giving this project update presentation as a member of the volunteer Resilient Hospital Systems Engineering Team (RHSET) that has been working together on this RHRM MBSE project since 2017. Team members include MBSE practitioners from INCOSE, IEEE, and FBI/ InfraGard, as well as domain experts from across the national, regional, state, and local healthcare communities. The project was recognized with a 2018 Collaboration Award at the 2019 INCOSE International Workshop.
Mr. Pafford introduced and gave an update to an ongoing project by a volunteer cross-domain team (INCOSE, IEEE, FBI/InfraGard, and Medical Experts) to apply model-based analysis, engineering, and evaluation methods to develop a Resilient Hospital Reference Model (RHRM). Outcomes from this project include a model-based decision support capability that hospitals can use to enhance catastrophic event preparedness (protection, prevention, response, mitigation, recovery, evaluation, and reporting). The initial scope of the project emphasizes developing a resilience reference framework for hospitals to use in preparing for, handling, and learning from a prolonged power outage.
