Raytheon Certified Architects Honored at Recognition Dinner
Raytheon honored its certified architects earlier this year at a special recognition dinner in Boston. They were officially recognized as Raytheon Certified Architects after completing the multiyear Raytheon Certified Architect Program (RCAP). Chairman and CEO Bill Swanson; Vice President of Engineering, Technology and Mission Assurance Taylor W. Lawrence; and other members of the company leadership team were on hand to personally congratulate them.
RCAP is a rigorous certification program nearing external accreditation that formally recognizes the company’s top architects through standardized Raytheon Enterprise Architecture Process-based training, external architecture certifications, leadership skills, full lifecycle engineering, architecting practitioner experience, and an orals certification in front of the Raytheon Architecture Review Board.
The program was established in 2004 to ensure that Raytheon produces architectures to meet customer needs and standards, and to foster the expertise required for the company to excel as a Mission Systems Integrator (MSI).
Systems architecture is a fundamental core competency for an MSI. Raytheon Certified Architects provide the company with the specialized engineering skills necessary to lead architecting activities in key areas such as customer future-state visioning, joint initiatives, system-of-systems design, mission systems integration, and reference architecture development.
