Abstract: An application is used to assist an engineer with the creation, editing, storing and submission of a statement of work for an engineering project to be completed by an external or global source. The application is used by the engineers to create, edit and store standard statements of work for global sources, to create, edit and store preliminary or draft statements of work for internal use and to create, edit and store “blanket” statements of work that cover a broad work scope of several small projects over a longer period of time. In addition, the application can be used to audit a standard or blanket statement of work and any related documents and technical data for content and compliance with export and business controls before the statement of work is submitted to a global source.

Abstract: A risk management application permits users to create and store their project's risks and abatements. The risk management application is available over an organization-wide network such as an Intranet or Extranet and is accessed from a common starting point using a web browser. All the information entered by a user into the risk management application is stored in a common database that can be accessed by all users. The risk management application can also be used to generate standardized reports, plots and scorecards on risk management for an individual project or a series of projects. Finally, the risk management application has features that assist a user in entering information such as automatic entry of previously entered information and auditing capabilities to check if all required information has been entered by the user.
