Concolidated Afloat Network Ent SVCS(CANES)-MIP

Abstract

CANES will consolidate and reduce the number of Navy afloat networks with state-of-the-art, high-speed networks and infrastructure. CANES will provide a robust, survivable, secure, scalable Afloat Core Services (ACS) enabled Common Computing Environment (CCE) for ships, submarines, and selected shore sites in addition to providing some proportional capability for aircraft. CANES will provide this ACS enabled CCE capability across all security domains from unclassified through Sensitive Compartmented Information (SCI). CANES is the physical single Program of Record (POR) replacement for the existing afloat networks PORs, Integrated Shipboard Network Systems (ISNS), Combined Enterprise Regional Information Exchange Systems Maritime (CENTRIXS-M), SCI Networks and Submarine LAN (SubLAN). In addition, CANES will provide functionality currently provided in the Video Information Exchange System (VIXS) and portions of Computer Network Defense (CND). CANES will field on a four year hardware baseline and a two year rolling software baseline providing application. The CANES vision is based on the overarching concept of reducing the number of afloat networks and providing enhanced efficiency through a single engineering focus on integrated technical solutions. This will allow for streamlined acquisition, contracting, and test events, and significant lifecycle efficiencies through consolidation of multiple current configuration management baselines, logistics and training efforts into a unified support structure. The primary goals of the CANES program are to: 1) reduce the number of networks through the use of mature, certified, cross domain technologies; 2) reduce the infrastructure footprint and associated costs for hardware afloat; and 3) provide increased capability to meet current and projected warfighter requirements. CANES will enable application developers to begin decoupling applications and services software away from independent, unique hardware stacks and host them on a common interoperable environment. This approach will incrementally deploy and will provide a basis for overall Navy Return on Investment (ROI) over the existing strategies. With the evolution of afloat network programs migrating into the CANES program, funding increases will provide even more comprehensive technology capabilities across the fleet. While the networks capabilities of the ISNS, CENTRIXS-M, SubLAN, Automated Digital Network System, and their associated personal computer hardware and software continue to be supported, CANES will reduce the infrastructure footprint and collapse a significant amount of Afloat Networks through the use of mature cross domain technologies. FY11 will focus on CANES System Design and Development (SDD), close out of the SDD phase for transition to Low-Rate Initial Production (LRIP) phase and LRIP contract development. Initiate acquisition and Capabilities Production Document (CPD) for Milestone (MS) C. Procure two Engineering Development Models (EDM) units in FY11. The EDM units function as pre-production units for Environmental Qualification Test and operational assessment, which require funding for necessary installation design and installation costs. FY09 funded in PE 0604231N, project 2307 and PE 0305208N, project 2174.

• Source ID: 0303238N_7_1319_PB_2011
• Change Summary Explanation: Technical: CANES Increment & Configuration Build (C(B)2) language have been removed and acquisition strategy has been modified to identify new versions as Technical Insertion (TI-1, TI-2, etc.). Schedule: Program initiation occurs at Milestone (MS) B, following pre-acquisition risk reduction efforts to refine the technological approach. CANES System Design and Development (SDD) contract award shifted one quarter to Q2FY10. Due to the delay of the contract award the schedule has moved to the right, following activities also were shifted to the right: Preliminary Design Review (PDR), Critical Design Review (CDR), Developmental Testing (DT), delivery of Engineering Development Model (EDM) . CANES Increment 1 and C(B)2 language has been removed and acquisition strategy has been modified to identify new versions as Technical Insertion (TI-1, TI-2, etc.) and Milestone B (MS B) for C(B)2 has been removed. FY11 from previous President's Budget is shown as zero because no FY11-15 data was presented in President's Budget 2010.
