Overview

Exostar provides the following services and applications to Newport News Shipbuilding (NNS) and their trading partners: 

• Using the Supply Chain Platform (SCP-NNS), Newport News Shipbuilding can more effectively receive supplier responses to orders and requests for quotes (RFQs). The supplier responds to the order or RFQ in SCP-NNS. The response is sent directly to NNS’s backend systems for more efficient processing and improved management of exceptions. 
  
  

• Information Manager - HII allows for the efficient routing of Supplier Scorecards, CVN78 Class Terms & Conditions (Appendices), File Drop – transmission of large data files (drawings, specs, etc), and PORA’s (Purchase Order Refresh Action).
  
  

• Federated Identity Service (FIS) facilitates the issuance of dual-factor, hardware-based digital certificates, which are required to access SCP-NNS and NNS IM.
