Advanced Combat Systems Tech
Abstract
The Advanced Combat System Technology line is to evolve the technical and business practices for programs to change to an open architecture construct. The program was constructed to mature both technical and business model integration for C5I systems programs of record in an open architecture environment. The priority was incorporating the principles of modular design and design disclosure, reusable application software, interoperability and secure information exchange, lifecycle affordability and encouraging competition and collaboration. Project Unit 0324: Funding is to maintain a repository environment to improve transparency of design disclosure and to support the principle of cross-domain reuse. The other elements of the Naval Open Architectures (OA) transformation effort are to be realized as management efficiencies within programs. Those elements include ensuring that all Naval systems, family of systems, and programs move to modular OA in accordance with Department of Defense (DOD) 5000.1 dated 12 May 2003 which mandates that all DOD programs utilize open systems architecture in order to rapidly field affordable and interoperable systems. By direction of the Navy Service Acquisition Executive (SAE), PEO IWS is assigned overall responsibility and authority to direct the Navy's OA effort. That policy established a need to coordinate acquisition strategies, develop guidance, and develop analysis of alternatives to determine OA software reuse practices within and across all Navy Communities of Interest (COI - Surface, Subsurface, Air, Space, and C4I). This project is to work closely with the T&E and certification communities in defining regression testing and certification requirements for all OA upgrades and software reuse applications. This project seeks to create a strategic shift in the acquisition business process to facilitate cooperative competition in cross-domain/COI business relationships. This will improve innovation and economies of scale throughout the Navy. This development effort will identify the business case and return on investment for moving the Navy towards an open systems approach, support the development of open systems technologies, and integrate best business and technical practices for open systems development within Naval acquisition. Naval OA project ensure 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, and reuse methodologies. In summary, this funding supports the management of a reuse repository and to evolve business, systems engineering and cultural changes required across all Naval programs as they are migrated to function in a joint net centric warfare environment.
