Abstract

2901 AAUSN IT DEPARTMENT OF NAVY TASKING RECORDS AND CONSOLIDATED KNOWLEDGE ENTERPRISE REPOSITORY (DoN TRACKER) Department of the Navy Tasking, Records and Consolidated Knowledge Enterprise Repository (DON TRACKER - formerly known as Enterprise Records and Task Management (ERTM)) is a single, auditable, compliant Records and Task Management process, implemented uniformly across all DON Divisions and Commands, and administered by DON/AA, to enable efficient and effective execution of Records Management (RM) and Task Management (TM) policy in compliance with statute. NMCI ENTERPRISE SERVICE TOOLS (NEST) The increase from FY18 to FY19 is due to the following major efforts: the Middleware Implementation, CDR Integration Implementation and ITPR/Demand Management. These efforts are focused on providing continuity of IT service lifecycle management processes during the transition from NGEN contract to NGEN-R contract(s). The NEST is comprised of the NMCI Enterprise Tool (NET) and Requirements to Award Tool (RAPT) user interfaces, which enables the consumption of services from NMCI IT service contracts. RAPT manages the requirements approval process via workflows and stores associated contract documentation. NET serves as the sole customer interface to the order-to-payment process for NMCI. NEST and its associated interfaces manage the lifecycle for NMCI IT services. ELECTRONIC PROCUREMENT SYSTEM (ePS) The increase from FY18 to FY19 is required for the start of the Limited Deployment (LD) phase of the ePS program and software hosting. Delivering required functionality to a subset of the DON, LD will involve 210 critical users from five sites and will include data migration, interface development, audit support, software configuration, software installation, test and evaluation, and gap closure. Limited deployment encompasses a contract award in January 2019, originally scheduled for end of FY18. Funding profile has been adjusted to account for shift in award date. ePS provides the Department of the Navy Solution for Electronic Contract Writing replacing the existing Standard Procurement System (SPS) and DoN Integrated Contracting Environment (DICE) capabilities and deficiencies. ePS aligns Contract Writing System (CWS) with Financial Improvement Audit Readiness requirements mandated by Congress and the Department of Navy's goal for an auditable link between financial management and contract writing system. It supports strategic sourcing and seamless exchange of data in addition to evolving to meet changing requirements. The improved capabilities will meet emerging data standards Procurement Data Standards/Procurement Request Data Standards (PDS/PRDS), in addition to complying with Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) Clause Logic Service. ePS meets the intent of the National Defense Authorization Act of 2013 by providing an electronic means to award contracts. DONAA IT The Modernization Initiative includes multiple projects with RDT&E requirements: Multiple Threat Alert Center (MTAC), Data Modernization & Analytical Tools, Knowledge Network (K-Net), Consolidated Law Enforcement Operations Center (CLEOC), and Data Modernization of the Secretariat Automated Resources Management Information System (SARMIS). RDTEN funding will optimize DONAA's capability to make necessary improvements to various Secretariat systems. This modernization will ensure compliance with continued financial emerging requirements. Enhancement of financial auditability will be in compliance with DOD security system requirements. MULTIPLE THREAT ALERT CENTER (MTAC) The Post-Cole Secretary of the Navy Anti-terrorism/Force Protection Task Force identified the need for NCIS to enhance the Multiple Threat Alert Center (MTAC). The MTAC provides key anti-terrorism/force protection products in response to Fleet tasking and is critical to Fleet protection during current Overseas Contingency Operations (OCO). This project provides funding for the development of an IT system to track the movement of NCIS special agents deployed in advance of DoN in-transit units. The ability to track and communicate with these agents is necessary in order to forward threat data to those forward deployed agents and to task them to respond to emerging threats. Funding is required for equipment and contractor support to modify COTS software. DATA MODERNIZATION & ANALYTICAL TOOLS NCIS data collection, filtering, and analysis infrastructure is unable to handle the increased flow of terrorism investigative and threat reporting of the Post 9/11 era. NCIS must revitalize its infrastructure and its data and investigation management capabilities to effectively counter current terrorist threats. The three main components of this portfolio investment are data modernization, knowledge management, and investigation management. KNOWLEDGE NETWORK (K-Net) K-Net is a Data Modernization & analytical tool being developed and soon deployed that greatly enhances NCIS's technological arsenal. K-Net implements an integrated NCIS approach for identifying, capturing, evaluating, retrieving, and sharing all of NCIS's knowledge and expertise. To that end, K-Net is a knowledge management system that improves NCIS's ability to search, analyze, fuse, and distribute both national intelligence and law enforcement information. The envisioned end state for K-Net is a secure, intuitive, web environment that is the one stop shop where applications, data, and tools are easily accessible to all of NCIS users to effectively and securely fulfill their mission regardless of when and where they operate. CONSOLIDATED LAW ENFORCEMENT OPERATIONS CENTER (CLEOC) The Naval Criminal Investigative Service (NCIS) enhancement of CLEOC will enable meeting Law Enforcement (LE) reporting requirements, satisfy Congressional mandates for the Defense Incident-Based Reporting System (DIBRS) and improve functionality across the Naval criminal justice community. DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY CRIMINAL JUSTICE INFORMATION SYSTEM (DONCJIS) The Naval Criminal Investigative Service (NCIS) is the Executive Agent (EA) for the Department of the Navy Criminal Justice Information System (DONCJIS). This system provides a cradle to grave criminal justice and law enforcement information system. The system enables multiple communities within the DON to share criminal justice and law enforcement information. Funding is required for contractor support to develop, test, train, deploy and implement this application. 2903 NAVAIR IT JOINT CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEM (JCMIS) The Joint Configuration Management Information System (JCMIS) Program is Department of Defense (DoD) standard software system for complete and integrated configuration management (CM) of weapon systems from acquisition to disposal. JCMIS efficiently manages all product structure data, including complex interrelationship between assemblies and subassemblies, technical documentation and the parts that comprise the item. JCMIS is designed to manage and control configuration data to support the DoD business processes. Accurate, complete and accessible configuration data is critical to the successful operations of DoD weapon systems or tracked assets. Mission readiness and operational capabilities are enhanced by JCMIS, as instant consistent integrated configuration data is readily available to operators, maintainers and logistics personnel. This system is a CM tool available DoD wide to support all potential customers. JCMIS provides users with a common database infrastructure to ensure compatibility, quality, and consistency of CM processes and provides configuration managers and analysts the validated CM information necessary for accurate maintenance, spare procurements, reliability and safety analysis, and mission readiness. Funding is budgeted to support the services of re-hosting and testing of COTS upgrades to ensure objective performance of JCMIS is achieved. TASK FORCE CYBER AWAKENING (TFCA) Cyber Warfare consists of many different aspects to include sabotage of our weapon systems, networks as well as enablement of missions. Nation and non-nation state actors are acquiring and employing more advanced cyber-attacks in order to exploit our networks and aviation systems challenging our technological edge. The threats and capabilities are real and range from exploiting capabilities, overloading weapons systems and logistics supply chains, to jamming signals or taking control of weapons systems. We must defend against adversarial cyber-attacks while contributing to the exploitation of cyber warfare capabilities. Funding is a continued investment as part of Navy's Cyber strategic priorities to address emergent intelligence and increased cyber threat environment to Naval Aviation weapon systems readiness, survivability and mission assurance in cyber contested environments. Investments are focused on Naval Air Systems Command aircraft, weapons or support equipment, commonly known as Platform Information Technology (PIT) - Control systems, to ensure cyber resiliency and warfighting effectiveness. Investments will develop enterprise tailored solutions, infrastructure capabilities, procedures and customized tools necessary to increase the cyber resiliency of our aircraft, weapons and support equipment against advanced adversary threats in cyber contested environments. These efforts will strengthen our cyber posture by developing research, development, test and evaluation capabilities and solutions to deter, detect, and mitigate cyber threats and safeguard classified Naval Aviation systems and platforms from "cradle to grave." These solutions will be integrated into the acquisition of weapons systems to enhance security, increase lethality, and improve resiliency in the expected operational environments. Our weapon or control systems are unique in the aforementioned environments and mission, but also in the presence of numerous non-traditional access points and trusted cyber relationships. DIGITAL THREAD (DT) Digital Thread - Digital Thread (DT) is digital process integration with complete, secure and authoritative data. DT integrates the product life cycle, and includes all the processes that are needed to design, develop, test, produce, and support a product. By connecting these processes, and using a standardized set of digital tools and data, the DT accelerates the product development cycle and lowers costs for support and new capability integration. The Digital Thread solution also includes development and demonstration of cyber security architectures for sustainment information systems, and development of a digital manufacturing data architecture and repository. 2904 NAVSEA IT This program includes the funding for Information Technology (IT) support at NAVSEA for the development, support, and sustainment of maritime shore maintenance and includes multiple modernization efforts to insure effectiveness of Fleet maintenance systems as part of the current Navy Maritime Maintenance Enterprise Solution (NMMES). These efforts include retirement and/or replacement of costly legacy systems, transition planning and systems engineering for integration with national and enterprise interim and future solutions. These efforts align with direction to insure that proposed interim solutions support a planned, single maintenance solution end state, as well as direction to align with data center consolidation plans proposed across the FYDP. It includes the modernization of Naval Shipyard and Regional Maintenance Centers' Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) production tools. This includes modifications/enhancements to Shipyard IT systems, such as Advanced Industrial Management (AIM); Project Scheduling and Sequencing (PSS); Workload and Performance Systems; the COST and MAT systems, and other solutions such as the Electronic Technical Working Document (eTWD) Initiative. The goal of PMO-IT is to provide modernization, migration and consolidation of obsolete legacy systems to the next generation of centrally hosted tools supporting Fleet Maintenance and national systems for the Navy. 2905 BUPERS IT Research and Development Funds for MPT&E Transformation under PE 0604703N have been consolidated within PE 0605013N PU 2905 starting in FY19. This effort is the linchpin of the Navy's MPT&E (Manpower, Personnel, Training & Education) business IT Transformation strategy which stems from the decision to invest in programs that directly align with the Sailor 2025 vision. The current 70 year old business processes and 40 year old obsolete IT systems will not sustain Fleet anticipated growth and is not cost efficient nor effective. The Transformation strategy involves revolutionary change by rapid implementation of MPT&E business IT products using the Industry Best Practices Model (e.g., early investment for largest ROI, rapid prototyping, and vanilla COTS products usage.) Four projects are the cornerstones of the N1 Transformation strategy. The Navy Standard Integrated Personnel System (NSIPS) will become Navy Personnel and Pay (NP2) and includes personnel and pay modernization and the collapse of Legacy Manpower System functionality. Second, a Single Point of Entry (SPOE) for Sailor self-service is composed of My Navy Portal (MNP), Identity and Access Management (IdAM), a Customer Relations Management (CRM) solution, and a centralized and standardized customer service center (The My Navy Career Center (MNCC)). Third, MPT&E Core Learning Stack improves the accessibility, sophistication, and collaborative nature of educational outreach. Finally, the Authoritative Data Environment (ADE) will enable the collapse of 9 legacy data warehouses into a single, authoritative source of truth for Sailors and Navy decision makers. Additionally, ADE will enable modern data analytics and business intelligence capabilities, taking advantage of current state of practice cloud services, to be leveraged in addressing the Navy's current challenges. BILLET BASED DISTRIBUTION (BBD) BBD is a Sailor 2025 initiative aimed at modernizing distribution and order writing systems. The effort begins functional work and follow-on development to collapse Navy Reserve Order Writing System (NROWS), Navy Marine Corps Mobilization Processing System (NMCMPS), Enlisted Assignment Information System (EAIS), and Officer Assignment Information System (OAIS) into a single distribution system. The objective of BBD is to increase personnel readiness, improve fit and provide clear visibility to the impact on mission readiness at the billet level. BBD will facilitate maximizing the contributions of every member of the Navy workforce by delivering competency-based career paths. As part of the Navy's transformation initiative, BBD will be consolidated into the MPT&E Personnel and Pay System technology component. LEARNING MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - DISTANCE LEARNING (LMS-DL) LMS-DL is aligned with the Learning Stack (LS) technology component of the Navy's Transformation initiative. LMS-DL supports ready relevant learning, with a focus to align Navy learning, create a career learning continuum, and leverage evolving technologies to expand learning solutions when and where the Sailor needs them. The collaborative learning environment (CLE) is a key component within the learning IT strategy that leverages Commercial-Off-the-Shelf products to integrate the CLE with intelligent tutors, a multi-purpose reconfigurable training system (MRTS), electronic classrooms (ECR), trainers and labs, interactive multimedia instruction (IMI), instructors, and a virtual environment. As part of the Transformation holistic IT approach, ready & relevant learning requires the development of a Learning Management System that permits: (1) Mobile & flexible delivery of modular training to the sailor (2) Synchronization of work requirements with learning modules to ensure proper training is delivered at the right time This funding will develop and deploy new technologies for modularized training in fleet concentration areas to support the continuum of learning to include: (1) Development, modification or replacement of the current LMS platform (2) Integration of Manpower, Personnel, Training and Education (MPTE) management tools to support end to end business processes (billet information, assignment, distribution, student management, learning management, personnel information, advancement) that will be impacted by changes to learning delivery and career profiles via Progressive NECs (e.g. Legacy systems: TFMMS,NSIPS, Learning Assessment System, Navy Training Management Planning System and future transformation systems: NP2 and ADE.) The Learning Management tools and supporting IT infrastructure must also be modified to support management of training into the Delayed Entry Program, the growing use of demonstration videos, social media, student and learning management for MPTE mobility efforts, gaming and simulation technology as it is brought on-line. LMS-DL will also introduce the Learning Continuum Pilot, a risk reduction effort that develops proof of concept alignment of sailor training requirements with learning content delivery. MY NAVY PORTAL (MNP) MNP is aligned with the single point of entry (SPOE) technology component of the Navy's IT Transformation initiative. MNP is an integrated web portal that consolidates the Navy's Human Resource portals, knowledge, and applications into a single and simplified user experience. Through the use of a multi-phased development approach, MNP will provide an intuitive self-service single point of entry (SPOE) for Sailors to view and manage their personnel and career information. MNP provides Active and Reserve Sailors with personalized interactive experiences and allows access to relevant information including learning content, human resource applications, and career business processes. ANALYSIS OF ALTERNATIVE/ECONOMIC ANALYSIS (AOA) The Navy will conduct multiple AoAs and studies to analyze viable alternatives in order to determine the most efficient and effective solution to address the modernization of elements of the Navy's Manpower, Personnel, Training and Education (MPT&E) IT portfolio. AOA will assess operational effectiveness, suitability, and costs of non-tactical systems to meet emerging capability requirements. NAVY STANDARD INTEGRATED PERSONNEL SYSTEM (NSIPS)(will become NP2) The NP2 increase in FY19 supports the de-customization of the Navy Standard Integrated Personnel System (NSIPS) and integration of Direct to Treasury Pay Capability via Pay Modernization (Pay Mod). This combined effort (named NP2) will result in an integrated, vanilla Commercial Off the Shelf, cloud hosted, integrated personnel and pay solution that will provide the navy with an IT system that is modern, highly automated, auditable, and more efficient. FY19 efforts include: 1. Continuation of the second Field Test including agile development of Treasury Direct Disbursing (TDD) and Active Component / Reserve Component (AC/RC) Permeability. 2. Migration of field test to a secure and accredited commercial cloud hosting solution. 3. Completion of Legacy NES and OPINS consolidation efforts. 4. Integration of Bi-Service PeopleSoft license with NSIPS personnel and pay modernization solution. A 2015 analysis of alternatives for integration of personnel and pay capabilities recommended the use of Oracle PeopleSoft 9.2 with Global Payroll for achieving the Navy's Personnel and Pay IT needs. Follow-on analysis conducted as part of the MPT&E transformation efforts in 2016 and 2017 indicated that the most cost effective approach to achieving the Transformation goals of modernizing HR Business System IT consistent with industry best practices was de-customization of the Navy Standard Integrated Personnel System (NSIPS) which uses Oracle PeopleSoft as its core technology, integration with Global Payroll, use of General Ledger to maximize auditability and accounting functions and hosting of the integrated solution. This combined effort (named NP2) will result in an integrated, vanilla Commercial Off the Shelf, cloud hosted, integrated personnel and pay solution that will provide the navy with an IT system that is modern, highly automated, auditable, and more efficient. Implementation of NP2 will result in several key benefits: 1. Improved accuracy and auditability of personnel and pay transactions. 2. Treasury Direct Disbursing eliminating Navy reliance on the sunsetting DJMS system. 3. Improved permeability of Active and Reserve Components to improve accuracy and eliminate delays in pay processing when a member moves between components. 4. Increased automation of common personnel and pay transactions 5. Integration of functionality currently spread across 55 different adhoc and outdated HR Business Systems. Efforts in FY19 are focused on system development, testing and delivery of core components associated with Military Pay, Personnel Transactions that effect Pay, Auditability, Accounting, and Treasury Direct Disbursement. Beyond F19, development will continue and will bring continued integration of legacy systems such as those used for detailing and distribution, management of Sailor performance, and talent management and matching. NAVY MANPOWER REQUIREMENTS SYSTEM (NMRS) NMRS will modernize obsolete software and incorporate a wide array of enhancements (expanded capabilities based on sponsor's approved Functional Requirements Document) of new capabilities in support of Manpower Requirement efficiencies. NMRS is a key tool which Navy manpower managers rely on to set, implement, and execute manpower requirements. Recommendations for improving data bases and the Navy's mobilization capacity rely on NMRS to make strength determinations. The planned effort also includes technical evaluation and integration of products produced by the Simulation Toolset for Analysis of Mission, Personnel and Systems (STAMPS) program. As envisioned by the Navy's Transformation initiative, NMRS will eventually be consolidated into the MPT&E Personnel and Pay System technology component of the transformation. RISK MANAGEMENT INFORMATION (RMI) The RMI program is a consolidation of DON risk management requirements into a single Program of Record (POR) to provide modern safety reporting and management capabilities for both active and reserve Navy and Marine Corps commands. RMI enables agile responses to business rule changes, automation of routine actions, improved data integrity, and facilitates self-service for organizations and individuals. RMI is being developed in three increments of capabilities: Streamlined Incident Reporting (SIR), Safety Program Management (SPM), and Analysis & Dissemination (A&D). A fourth requirement, Single Point of Entry (SPOE) integration, will be accomplished as part of the development of the three RMI increments since each will be built on the same Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS) platform. Each of these capabilities will be acquired as individual Abbreviated Acquisition Programs using an incremental development approach for reengineered business processes, while consolidating five legacy systems Web-Enabled Safety System (WESS), Enterprise Safety Application Management Systems (ESAMS), Portsmouth Occupational Accident and Illness Reporting System (POAIRS), Medical Mishap and Compensation (MMAC), and Injury Tracker (INJTRK). AUTHORITATIVE DATA ENVIRONMENT (ADE) ADE is part of the Navy's MPT&E IT Transformation initiative aligned directly with the Authoritative Data Environment technology component of the transformation. ADE is aimed at transitioning the current project based ADE into a full enterprise solution that is based on modern IT service models and cloud hosting technology. This will advance data analytics and visualization capabilities, and add common platform services in a big data environment that is consistent with private industry. This acceleration toward a true Navy-wide personnel authoritative data environment is a transformational increase in capability for decision support and improving personnel readiness. As part of the Transformation strategy, the Chief of Naval Personnel has directed expansion and improvements of the ADE in making MPT&E data more available to commanders, sailors, business owners and fleet executive leadership. The ADE provides infrastructure, operations and sustainment of the Navy MPT&E Authoritative Data Warehouse(ADW), enterprise service bus, and web support services. The capabilities delivered by this funding include: (1) Completed "golden record" expansion increments - Data quality - Governance - Security - Data standardization (2) Increased capabilities for MPT&E supply chain & business operations - Data discovery - Advanced visualization tools - Predictive analytics (3) Enhanced architecture to support unstructured data and "big data" analytics (4) Improved support for future identity management & access for mobile device capability APPLICANT RELATIONSHIP MANAGEMENT (ARM) ARM provides automated support of the management of recruiting information. ARM enables all levels of recruiting to have real-time access to timely and accurate information. ARM provides managers with decision-making support by consolidating Navy Recruiting Command (NRC) legacy application systems. The complete ARM Systems Dev/Mod effort will incorporate biometrics and paperless implementation across all lines of business systems to gain additional efficiencies. Included in the ARM program is the Self Service Accessions Application (SSAA). Phase II of this effort will build the SSAA application into the ARM system. SSAA is a mobile device-based software application. SSAA supports a change in the NRC business processes from a recruiter-driven business model to an applicant self-service business model. This "app" will be used by applicants to collaborate with recruiters anytime & anywhere to more efficiently and effectively navigate the recruiting process. As envisioned by the Navy's Transformation initiative, ARM will eventually be consolidated into the SPOE Customer Relations Management (CRM) System. 3167 JOINT TECHNICAL DATA INTEGRATION (JTDI) JOINT TECHNICAL DATA INTEGRATION (JTDI) Increased funding for development of JTDI Data Transport Battlegroup Survivability Enhancements ensuring Tech Data is available for fleet users in degraded mode networks or during complete loss of access to land-based top tier servers. It will be used to develop the JTDI Standard Data Repository providing a Big Data Storage and access solution enabling an advanced Enterprise Common CBM+ data analysis solution. Funding supports the evaluation, testing and integration to develop a JTDI Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) solution for installation on a Carrier (CV) and Amphibious Assault (L) class ships and up to 104 Navy/Marine Corp aviation activities. JTDI is a digital technical data access, delivery and local O&I level library management toolset and telemaintenance collaboration process enabler. It improves accuracy and timeliness of technical manual and other technical data delivery and minimizes the Fleet's library management burden. JTDI reduces maintenance work hours with saving Return on Investment (ROI) of 2.5:1. It facilitates the transition of the Joint Distance Support and Response (JDSR) Advanced Concept Technology Demonstration (ACTD) for telemaintenance and provides for process efficiencies to support ongoing Aviation Fleet Technical Representative reductions. MARINE AVIATION LOGISTICS ENTERPRISE INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY (MAL-EIT) Increased funding to accelerate the deployment of MAL-EIT 3.0 to meet the new deadline of FOC in FY19 as well as begin development of MAL-EIT 3.1. Funding supports the evaluation, development, testing and integration of software and hardware solutions across all US Marine Corps Aviation activities to be used in the planning and execution of geographically distributed, expeditionary Aviation Logistics (AVLOG) chains in support of deployed USMC Air Combat Element operations. The Marine Aviation Logistics Enterprise Information Technology (MAL-EIT) Program is one of four programs contained within the Marine Aviation Logistics Support Program (MALSP) modernization program known as MALSP II. Legacy MALSP is nearly 25 years old and grossly inadequate in IT capability to meet the informational, planning, and C2 needs of a dynamic, geographically distributed nodal AVLOG system. MAL-EIT is a Defense Business System Abbreviated Acquisition Program that will develop and deliver the required IT capability necessary to eliminate the IT related gaps existing in the legacy MALSP. 3185 JOINT AIR LOGISTIC INFORMATION SYSTEM (JALIS) JALIS is an operational scheduling and aircraft management system that facilitates real-time data analysis. JALIS is a critical element in the management of DoD air logistics assets. JALIS allows: (1) DoD Service Personnel to submit airlift requirements for DoD Personnel and cargo (2) Air Logistics Flying Units to communicate their aircraft availability in a real-time graphic display (3) Designated Scheduling Organizations to compare airlift requirements with available aircraft (4) Designated Scheduling Organizations to create mission assignments JALIS informs applicable users of mission details and modifications by using a combination of system displays and email updates. JALIS is geographically distributed and has a user base in excess of 4,000 members. JALIS facilitates the movement of thousands of DoD Personnel and tons of cargo annually in support of the following: (1) Navy Unique Fleet Essential Airlift (2) Army's Operational Support Airlift Agency (OSAA) (3) United States Transportation Command (USTRANSCOM) (4) United States Marine Corps (USMC) 9406 MAINTENANCE DATA WAREHOUSE The Aviation Logistics Environment (ALE) program is the Naval Aviation Information Technology (IT) solution to deliver full lifecycle weapon system logistics and maintenance capabilities to the functional Naval Aviation Support Process (NASP). It will deliver these capabilities via a net centric, shared data environment that supports shore based, afloat, and expeditionary operations. The ALE integrates IT services plane-side and interfaces with infrastructure systems where necessary. ALE is a major logistics enterprise solution and a part of the total enterprise solution architecture. ALE is designed to structure IT services so that they can connect with other parts of the enterprise solution set, thus enabling an interoperable end-to-end business process. ALE consolidates Naval Aviation data into an integrated data environment for high level analysis. The purpose of ALE is to integrate, organize, and develop an underlying infrastructure and analytical capacity across the NASP in order to generate a holistic timely picture of readiness and condition for all T/M/S. ALE will be providing modern Product Lifecycle Management (PLM), Decision Support (Predictive Analytics), Planeside Interfacing, and the Enterprise Infrastructure to support the NAE. The ALE program is a "system of systems" that will provide a common, integrated data environment that will enable NAE Vision 2020 data transparency across the Naval Aviation Enterprise; end-to-end process view to enable both consuming and providing on-demand information to stakeholders; a capability to view "digital twins" of all T/M/S for both allowable and as-configured states; a consolidation of aging, near-end-of-life systems and applications to modern technology and cost efficient support infrastructures; consistent and accurate weapons systems technical and CAD engineering documentation to support additive manufacturing capabilities; standardized metrics, algorithms, and business analysis tools; an architecture that enables migration to the cloud; and alignment to Information Assurance (IA) and Cybersecurity standards, and Risk Management Framework (RMF) compliance. Vector (formally Integrated Logistics Management System (ILSMS)) supports the development of a common logistics analytical application that uses disciplined approach to Business Intelligence (BI) architecture that combines products, technology and methods aimed at key Naval Aviation Enterprise (NAE) business processes providing a single data source which focuses on aircraft readiness, maintenance, supply, cost, and man-hours.
