FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
RAMP Presentations Generate Interest in Egress Community
Mesa, AZ
RAMP’s initial introduction during the 2014 F-16 and Proven Aircraft Worldwide Review in Ogden, Utah, September 8-10, 2014, created a strong interest among many Foreign Militaries in attendance. The CAD/PAD Requirements and Management Program (RAMP), a software system tool, is specifically designed to efficiently manage Cartridge Actuated and Propellant Actuated Devices (CAD/PAD) used in escape systems, ejection seats, aircrew flight equipment, fire suppressions, and stores release systems. RAMP develops fleet requirement forecast and sustainment budgets with accuracy and ease, creating time-change maintenance schedules, managing and tracking inventory, and suggesting procurement (requisition) actions. RAMP offers increased aircraft readiness by assuring availability of critical CAD/PAD items.
RAMP was introduced to several Foreign Militaries with positive responses. It clearly shows a need for this new tool. The RAMP software was designed by David Howe, an experienced professional in the Egress and Escape Systems community with 39 years of experience at Hill Air Force Base executing DoD/USAF program objectives from major aircraft systems maintenance to program management on pyrotechnic and explosive systems. With the offering of the RAMP software tool Foreign Militaries can provide better support to its aircrew by providing current egress system components.
“Mr. Howe has experience in all aspects of egress systems within the USAF and the majority of systems in the US Navy. He has a unique familiarity with the processes of qualification and acquisition of pyrotechnic devices and systems, qualifying the design and development of RAMP for use in the egress community,” said Bob LaFrance, President and CEO of TASK Aerospace.
