Adv Combat System Technology

Abstract

Funding is to fully implement the Naval Open (Systems) Architecture (OSA) strategy. The implementation of this strategy provides the tools and leadership for assisting programs and the Naval Research and Development Establishment through the technical, business and cultural transition to OSA. The primary tools and assistance is established through a limited set of technical reference frameworks, consistent contract language guidance, Intellectual Property strategies and improvements in transparency of design disclosure and information exchange on past and current investments to support portfolio management and cross-program reuse. The OSA transformation effort will be applied to programs of record. Those elements include ensuring that all naval systems, families of systems, programs and prototypes move to modular OSA in accordance with DoD Instruction 5000.01 of 7 Jan 2015 which mandates that all DoD programs utilize Modular OSA to field affordable and interoperable systems. This project facilitates a strategic shift in the technical and business methods to establish cooperation and cross-domain/COI business relationships. This improves innovation and economies of scale throughout the Navy and Marine Corps. This leadership effort has identified the business case and potential return on investment for moving the Navy towards an open systems approach, supported the development of open systems technologies, and integrated best business and technical practices for open systems development within Naval acquisition. Supports Systems engineering and acquisition services to deliver capabilities through acquisition, development, integration, production, test, deployment and sustainment of interoperable command, control, communication, computers, intelligence, surveillance reconnaissance, cyber, and information technology capabilities enabling Information Warfare; and other functions. Naval OSA ensures Navy-wide system architectures become extensible and scalable in function, capacity, and workload to meet Joint warfighting requirements. This also includes the identification and development of common software components, functions, reuse methodologies, and extensible product lines.
