WWMCCS/Global Command and Control System
Abstract
Global Command and Control System-Army (GCCS-A): This project is the Army component system that directly supports the implementation of the Global Command and Control System Family of Systems. GCCS-A provides automated command and control tools for Army Strategic and Operational Theater Commanders to enhance warfighter capabilities throughout the spectrum of conflict during joint and combined operations in support of National Security. The GCCS-A developed software systems dramatically improves the Army's ability to analyze courses of action; develop and manage Army Forces; and ensure feasibility of war plans. In accordance with Army Command Post Computing Environment and Joint Command and Control objectives, GCCS-A was re-architected away from a scalable process architecture based server - thick client architecture to a virtualized server - web client architecture hosted on Battle Command Common Services (BCCS)/Tactical Server Infrastructure (TSI) and Mission Command Workstation. GCCS-A strategic tools for readiness reporting have been modernized and replaced with the Defense Readiness Reporting System - Army (DRRS-A), a suite of web based applications for Army Readiness, Force Registration and Force Projection. Army Joint and Strategic Command and Control (AJaSC2) is a modernization development effort for the Army's joint and strategic C2 capabilities. AJaSC2 provides the materiel solution in response to the Army Mission Command for Unified Action Capability Definition Package (AMCUA CDP). AJaSC2 enables Army operational headquarters to integrate with the Joint Force Commands and Unified Action Partners (UAP). AJaSC2 provides Army leaders: Joint Common Operating Picture (COP); Adaptive planning and execution capabilities for distributed, synchronous and asynchronous collaboration services to develop, revise, and execute their warfighting plans supported by theaterwide analytics; strategic Situational Awareness (SA) to coalition operations and other mission partners and Coordination and synchronization of Joint Execution Mission Management. Fiscal Year 2018 Base funding in the amount of $0.316 million supports GCCS-A 4.3 software updates and Army Interoperability Certification (AIC) testing of the GCCS-A Bridge Effort in conjunction with Common Operating Environment. Certification testing ensures that GCCS-A Bridge Effort software is successfully configured as a virtual machine on BCCS/TSI and is interoperable with Army and Joint Mission Command Systems. Fiscal Year 2018 base funding in the amount of $5.712 million will support the Army’s capability for unit readiness reporting, unit registration and force planning and projection activities to enable Title 10 reporting to Congress. Specifically the funding will provide program and acquisition oversight, technical development and training support to enable the readiness and force projection capabilities.
