Abstract

2901 Navy Enterprise IT (formerly AAUSN IT) SECNAV PROJECTS IT SYSTEM MODERNIZATION The Department of the Navy Chief Information Officer, Technology Division (DONCIO IT) provides Information Technology (IT), Information Assurance (IA), Information Management (IM), Document Management (DM), Records Management (RM), Knowledge Management (KM) and other related support services to the Secretary of the Navy (SECNAV), Chief of Naval Operations (OPNAV), and the DON Secretariat. This support spans across over 24 organizations, covers nearly 6,000 individual customers, and countless worldwide end users. CIVILIAN HUMAN CAPITAL STRATEGY (CHCS) The new start CHCS enables the DON to access, curate, and engage the best civilian talent, taking into account the DON's unique mission and its global impact on U.S. national security. The Secretary of the Navy (SECNAV) directed the CHCS Task Force to develop the DON's CHCS as a commitment to provide the civilian workforce a world-class experience with opportunities for continuous learning and career mobility, augmented with consumer-grade digital platforms. The CHCS Task Force will provide expertise and innovation to catalyze change and drive enhanced performance of business operations. NMCI ENTERPRISE SERVICE TOOLS (NEST) The NMCI Enterprise Service Tools (NEST) is the NMCI IT service management system that supports the Navy IT service lifecycle business workflow. NEST includes the NMCI Enterprise Tool (NET),the Requirements to Award Process Tool (RAPT), and other applications, which enable and manage the business workflow. NET is a custom application that has been built and maintained by the DON to support ordering of IT services. RAPT manages the requirements approval process and stores supporting documentation for previously un-priced line items. RAPT provides NET with relevant identification information for the new orderable solution, which supports the creation of orderable services. NEST serves as the single point of entry for lifecycle management of IT services on the NMCI network. ELECTRONIC PROCUREMENT SYSTEM (ePS) 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. FLEET ARCHITECTURE INTEGRATION TOOL (FAIT) The Fleet Architecture Integration Tool (FAIT) provides the means by which the Department of the Navy (DoN) can develop a warfighting-focused budget leveraging digital technology enabled by machine learning and artificial intelligence algorithms. FAIT is an artificial intelligence (AI) enabled decision support tool that gives users the ability to: 1) View current investment plans pertaining to platforms, weapons, sensors, and C2 across the Department of Navy (DoN) enterprise with the aid of rich visualizations; 2) Create custom excursions for analysis and investment consideration; and 3) Validate effectiveness of investment choices nearly instantaneously through direct connection to AI-enabled, war-gaming technology. The Fleet Architecture Integration Tool (FAIT) assists DCNO and CNO level decisions on POM year investments by modeling future-year end strength and capabilities against anticipated peer threats based on current year funding decision options. This capability cannot be duplicated through use or modification of current budget analysis or system modeling tool sets. Starting in FY2022, FAIT's functionality is being subsumed by the Force Level Integration (FLINT) solution under the Warfighting Capabilility Assessment line. WARFIGHTING CAPABILITY ASSESSMENT - FORCE LEVEL INTEGRATION (FLINT) FLINT is a digital decision support solution that enables mass exploration of POM alternatives, positioning the Navy's POM programing process to evolve from a subjective human capital and document-centric process to a data driven, model-centric process that leverages automated frameworks and computing to serve as the analytical underpinning for developing the POM. FLINTs mission is to integrate the numerous and disparate tools, databases, models, simulations, analyses, and subject matter expertise necessary to facilitate and optimize Navy POM decision making. FLINT provides senior leadership with programming options that capture the fiscal trade-offs and their consequences to warfighting effectiveness when measured against defined criteria and enables relative valuation across all POM requirements. LIVE, VIRTUAL AND CONSTRUCTIVE (LVC) TRAINING DEVELOPMENT Under the Optimized Fleet Response Plan (OFRP) the IWC lacks a Live, Virtual and Constructive (LVC) capability or facility for basic unit level training or advanced/integrated training for Carrier Strike Group (CSG), Amphibious Readiness Group (ARG) and DESRON staffs. Training is also constrained by security limitations and an inability to replicate adversary tactics, techniques and procedures (TTPs) with a representative opposing force. The ability to participate in the Navy Continuous Training Environment (NCTE) facilitates the integration of IW capabilities into an existing training, with an end goal being to provide reconfigurable training modules to include classrooms, hardware systems, software, scenario generation teams, and debrief tools. Providing the Fleet with a scalable virtual environment to train and build proficient IW capable forces will strengthen our warfighting ability. 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. SECNAV Projects (BCNR, CORD, Other) IT Modernization supports priority SECNAV IT System Modernization projects with RDTEN requirements, including the Council of Review Board's (CORB) eCase IT system. This system provides a single holistic integrated case management system that supports all review board activities at Board for Correction of Naval Records (BCNR) and CORB. The eCase platform will modernize all review board activities case management capability to include: workflow integration, business intelligence/analytics, online applicant portal, applicant notifications, file/records management, document generation, and future integration with supporting systems inside and outside the Naval enterprise. 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 Configuration Management System (CMS) - This program was originally identified as Joint Configuration Management Information System (JCMIS) to reflect the main software tool used for component tracking and Aircraft Configuration Management. However, as the available data sources from the fleet have expanded, the new name of CMS was chosen to better acknowledge the variety of information sources which are received, integrated, and compiled to give the most accurate component record data and aircraft configuration. CMS serves as the Program of Record (POR) to manage and control Navy and Marine Corps aviation component data reconstruction efforts. CMS compiles record data via fleet documentation of component updates and captures this information via a centrally managed database within the current software tool, Joint Configuration Management Information System (JCMIS). CMS efficiently manages product structure data, including complex interrelationships between assemblies and subassemblies, technical documentation and the parts that comprise the item. 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 CMS, as consistent integrated configuration data is readily available to operators, maintainers and logistics personnel. CMS provides users with a common database infrastructure to ensure compatibility, quality, and consistency of Configuration Management (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 Commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) upgrades to ensure objective performance of CMS is achieved. Navy Cybersecurity - 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. To meet these challenges and address the Chief of Naval Operations priorities and tasking, these R&D efforts are specifically focused on Naval Air Systems Command weapon or control systems and programs to ensure warfighting effectiveness as part of integrated / multi-platform kill chains. These research and development 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 required for operational environments. Digital Thread (DT)- Capability provides digital process integration with complete, secure and authoritative data, coordinated as part of approved Navy LOG-IT. DT integrates the product life cycle to provide universal access to authoritative data and workflow automation, enabling configuration management of data, implementation of closed loop quality, and consolidation of engineering products including digital enablement of additive manufacturing. Connecting these processes using standardized digital tools and data accelerates the product development cycle and lowers costs for support and new capability integration. The Digital Thread capability includes development and demonstration of cyber security architectures for sustainment information systems, and development of a digital/additive manufacturing data architecture and repository. 2904 NAVSEA IT This program includes the funding for the Information Technology (IT) tools utilized in shore maritime maintenance planning, execution, tracking, quality control, certification, closeout, employee qualifications, and payroll. This program supports ship, submarine, and aircraft carrier maintenance. The Navy Maritime Maintenance Enterprise Solution (NMMES) includes efforts for the development, support, and sustainment of maritime shore maintenance and includes multiple modernization efforts to insure effectiveness of Fleet maintenance systems. This includes the retirement and/or replacement of costly systems and applications, transition planning, and systems engineering for integration with current and future enterprise solutions. These efforts align with direction to insure that these solutions support a planned, single maintenance solution end state, as well as direction to align with multiple laws, regulations, policies, and guidance across the FYDP. It includes the modernization of Naval Shipyard, Regional Maintenance Centers, and Forward Deployed Naval Forces' planning, Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) production tools. This includes modifications/enhancements to Shipyard IT applications, for work execution management, critical chain scheduling, workload and performance applications, the availability cost tracking, and material management applications, and other solutions such as the Electronic Technical Working Document (eTWD) initiative. The goal is to provide modernization, migration, and consolidation of obsolete legacy IT tools to a modern, supportable, and modular solution enabling Fleet Maintenance across Intermediate and Depot level maintenance activities worldwide for the Navy. 2905 BUPERS IT MyNavy Human Resources (HR) Transformation - formerly known as Manpower, Personnel, Training & Education (MPT&E) Transformation -- will change how HR services are provided throughout a Sailor's entire "Hire-to-Retire" lifecycle and improve fleet combat readiness. By streamlining processes and systems, MyNavy HR will improve the speed, accuracy, and quality of personnel and pay services, better positioning the Navy to equip and manage its people. This effort is the linchpin of the Navy's MPT&E Business IT Transformation strategy that 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 neither cost efficient nor effective. MyNavy HR involves revolutionary change by using agile delivery model to the greatest extent possible to implement business IT products using the Industry Best Practices Model (e.g., early investment for largest ROI, rapid prototyping, and vanilla COTS products usage.) MyNavy HR is a fully integrated portfolio of IT Systems organized into five distinct pillars: Navy Personnel and Pay (NP2), Learning Stack (LS), Enterprise Customer Relationship Management (eCRM), Single Point of Entry (SPOE), and Authoritative Data Environment (ADE). This portfolio of systems serves as the cornerstone of the OPNAV N1 MyNavy HR strategy. The impetus for building an adaptive family of systems is gearing MyNavy HR Transformation towards customer needs. The traditional waterfall delivery methodology of IT goods and services cannot meet the emergent requirements evolving from shortened technical obsolescence. Thus, MyNavy HR Transformation will employ an Agile delivery method that is highly structured, with a repeatable software development approach designed to quickly deliver usable capability to the end user. These capabilities are packaged as Minimum Viable Products (MVPs) which are routinely delivered to the customer for their use and evaluation. Favorably received MVPs are subsequently refined and integrated into a production baseline. Rapidly integrating a family of systems using an agile methodology necessitates an overarching system integrator and coordinator to ingest pilots and prototypes into a technical baseline. The Transformation Portfolio Coordinator & Production (TPC&P) contract is an IDIQ contract that will deliver a family of systems in support of MyNavy HR. This contract will provide the Global Design & Strategic Planning to baseline the "55 to 1" technical execution plan and will articulate the "system of systems" baseline release. Additionally, pilots and prototypes that have reached sufficient maturity will be integrated and deployed into the production baseline under this contract. AUTHORITATIVE DATA ENVIRONMENT (ADE) The Authoritative Data Environment (ADE) is an enterprise information management system that will migrate the existing legacy data warehouses into a central data repository that is composed of a data warehouse, data lake, data management tools and an Application Program Interface (API) Layer. ADE will provide an authoritative data-sharing framework, leveraging scalable and interoperable technologies as well as business intelligence and data analytic capabilities. ADE will need to interface and integrate with SPOE and all MyNavy HR transactional and business systems, including enabling 'plug & play' of new services, technologies, and system capabilities. Some of the key principles of ADE include: 1. Flexible architecture and scalable design. 2. Data Governance to produce authoritative, cleansed, conformed, consolidated, and calculated data. 3. Data Access to specified users. 4. Master Data Management (core elements, metadata tagging, business rules, standards, metrics, and tools). 5. Data analytics and business intelligence (descriptive, prescriptive, and predictive). 6. Identification, development, and maintenance of enterprise data policies. ENTERPRISE CUSTOMER RELATIONSHIP MANAGEMENT (eCRM) The eCRM solution will integrate business processes, supporting systems, and authoritative data in support of Navy Personnel Command's (NPC's) MNCC (My Navy Career Center), Navy Recruiting Command (NRC), Navy Education & Training Command (NETC), and other commands that manage the Navy workforce. The eCRM solution provides an approach to manage information on current and future Sailors, veterans, and their families. The eCRM solution is organized by the following segments: 1. Sales Management - recording all stages of the prospecting process to include contact management, leads tracking, forecasting and initial processing. 2. Knowledge Management - providing the tools for identifying, capturing, evaluating, retrieving, and sharing information assets. 3. Case Management - supporting the automation of processes to formulate opinions, approvals, and fulfillment of case related requests. 4. Performance Management- supporting the performance of Navy Sailors. 5. Recruiting - eCRM capabilities provide several functions in support of the Navy's recruiting needs, to include: A. Provide personally identifiable information (PII) in a commercial cloud platform. B. Provide ability for users to access mobile platforms. C. Meet Navy Cybersecurity requirements to protect Impact Level (IL) 4 data and will achieve an Authority to Operate (ATO) from the Navy Authorizing Official (NAO). D. Support non-recruiting activities and address case management and knowledge management. Case management functionality supports tracking incidents, and knowledge management provides for sharing and collaborating across various business areas. LEARNING STACK (LS) The Learning Stack will provide a cloud-based material solution that will streamline learning management (course/content delivery and assessments), capture and record interactive learning experiences, enable curriculum authoring and development, provide student Sailor registration and administration, create and regulate course/student scheduling, and offer e-learning capabilities, such as distance learning. The Learning Stack is a delivery vehicle for the following core objectives of the Ready Relevant Learning (RRL) initiative: Learning Management System (LMS) with Assessments Learning Record Store (LRS) Curriculum Development System (CDS) Student Information System (SIS) Enterprise Resource Scheduler (ERS) Collaborative Learning Environment (CLE) The Learning Stack is one of three lines of effort that is the Navy's strategy for it learning continuum. The other two are RRL content modernization, and the Training Network infrastructure. Collectively, these three individual efforts will cultivate instruction content that meets Fleet validated needs (ashore and afloat), and provide keystone delivery mechanisms that will decrease training timelines, assimilate operational agility, and improve overall mission readiness. Additionally, the Learning Stack supports the MyNavy HR Transformation Program that includes yet expands beyond the RRL core initiatives identified above. In support of the broader MyNavy HR enterprise, the Learning Stack will provide a centralized, authoritative repository for Interactive Multimedia Instruction (IMI) courseware, officer and citizen development (NJROTC and ROTC candidate management), enlisted advancement exam development and distribution, enlisted degree completions, and tuition assistance authorizations. The RRL and MyNavy HR Transformation initiatives require the development of Learning Stack capabilities that permit: 1. Mobile & flexible delivery of modular training to the Sailor 2. Synchronization of work requirements with learning modules to ensure proper training delivery 3. Leveraging cloud-hosted capabilities to optimize the Learning Stack delivery model NAVY PERSONNEL AND PAY (NP2) 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 MyNavy HR 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. Navy Personnel and Pay (NP2) will sustain and develop the core system of systems architecture; executing pilot programs and iterative development of capabilities for Navy's MyNavy HR Transformation. The NP2 adapts and reengineers business processes to conform to the technical parameters of PeopleSoft 9.2 while integrating with the Direct to Treasury Pay Capability via Pay Modernization (Pay Mod). This combined effort will result in a 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 Defense Joint Military Pay 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. SINGLE POINT OF ENTRY (SPOE) SPOE is an information management concept that provides an intuitive self-service capability for Sailors to view and manage personnel and career information, providing Sailors with access to information including learning content, HR applications, and career business processes. SPOE will be the user-facing capability, enabling the MyNavy Career Center (MNCC), linking Sailors to modernized personnel and pay capabilities in NP2, providing Sailor training through the LS, and access to authoritative data, which holds their personnel and pay record information. SPOE consolidates Navy's Human HR portals, knowledge, and applications into a single, simplified user experience and will include processes and functionality, such as: 1. Integration of capabilities, to include: My Navy Portal (MNP), Mobile Applications, CRM solution, and Credential Access Management (ICAM); 2. MNP A. Serve as the My NavyHR's single point of entry to Sailors HR resources B. Provide capability to have a low bandwidth version accessible to Sailors operating in a restricted bandwidth environment C. Provide CAC-free access for Sailors accessing MNP via personal devices such as smart phones, tablets, personal laptops and computers. 3. ICAM A. Provide authentication and single sign on capability for access to the objective My Navy HR capability 4. Mobility Program A. Ability to host and manage mobile applications through the Navy App Locker B. Provide Mobile application management suite/platform C. Develop new MNP mobile application - native app for Sailors to access personal data and career life events 3167 JOINT TECHNICAL DATA INTEGRATION (JTDI) Joint Technical Data Integration (JTDI) Program - JTDI funding supports the evaluation, testing and integration to develop a JTDI Government Off-The-Shelf (GOTS) solution for installation on Carrier and Amphibious Assault class ships, the Consolidated Afloat Networks and Enterprise Services Network (CANES) and at other globally deployed Navy/Marine Corp aviation activities. JTDI is a digital technical data access, delivery and local Organizational & Intermediate level library management toolset. 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 a savings Return on Investment of 2.5:1. JTDI also provides deployed maintenance personnel with 24x7 collaborative reach-back/tele-maintenance capabilities so that Fleet Support Teams/Engineering Technical Services can remotely diagnose problems and assist with repairs, 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) 3432 NMMES-TR The NMMES-TR is an Information Technology (IT) acquisition program that will provide a sustainable enterprise IT solution leveraging Commercial, Off-The-Shelf (COTS) technology and business processes for shore maritime maintenance. Unlike the uniquely custom designed status quo toolset, the NMMES-TR solution will not implement extensive product customization to match the current maintenance business processes; but rather, maintenance business processes will be modified to match the software solution, thereby adopting industry best practices. Accordingly, the solution will be more flexible to the BPR process, and more agile to capitalize on efficiency improvement opportunities and innovations. This will facilitate alignment with the Optimized Fleet Response Plan (OFRP) by assisting the maintenance activities with accomplishing assigned tasks as planned in order that submarines, aircraft carriers, and surface ships can properly train and deploy on schedule. NMMES-TR will also provide a modern solution that will be more effective and efficient in combating cybersecurity threats, and capable of continuous monitoring. 9406 MAINTENANCE DATA WAREHOUSE Maintenance Data Warehouse funds the Naval Aviation Enterprise (NAE) Sustainment Vision (SV) 2020 digital transformation which is a critical component of improving readiness. It will be executed in a fully agile manner providing continuous fleet readiness improvements across the FYDP. The initial SV 2020 configuration will be supported with an agile Minimal Viable Product (MVP) as the foundation for continuous capability introduction. The Aviation Logistics Environment (ALE) will provide the seamless environment to support the integration of the other capabilities developed in Maintenance Data Warehouse. Aviation Data Warehouse/Decision Knowledge Programming for Logistics Analysis and Technical Evaluation (DECKPLATE) program is the next generation data warehouse containing over 30 years of aircraft maintenance, flight, components, and usage data. Through the use of web-based, commercial off the shelf software for data load, analysis, query, and reporting tools, the user has the capabilities to effectively obtain readiness data in a near real-time environment, as well as providing historical data for long range planning, trend and records analysis, records reconstruction, and compliance with technical directives. DECKPLATE supports the mission of the warfighter who requires a single source of near real-time aviation data in which to base critical readiness decisions. DECKPLATE collects data from authoritative sources, such as the fleet maintenance systems, into a data warehouse. Because the warfighter only needs to access one database, the time consuming task of collecting various pieces of data from various sources will be reduced and ultimately eliminated. This also accomplishes a reduction in legacy systems mandated by Office of the Chief of Naval Operations. DECKPLATE manages total inventory for two major categories of assets, Aircraft (General Equipment) and Engine/Propulsion Systems/Modules (EPSMs) (Operating Materials & Supply). DECKPLATE is comprised of the transactional Aircraft Inventory and Readiness Reporting (DECK-AIRRS) and the Engine Transaction Reporting (DECK-ETR) subsystems which provide the complete lifecycle for aircraft and Engine/ Propulsion System/Modules (EPSMs). DECKPLATE has been identified as a level 1 financial feeder system due to the value of the aircraft and EPSM's managed in the system, and continues to respond to audit compliance and Cyber Security mandates. DECKPLATE is a core feeder system to numerous NAVAIR efforts. Condition Based Maintenance Plus (CBM+) solution is an initiative which provides Naval Aviation Enterprise with common enabling capabilities which deliver timely data-driven, decisional information to optimize aircraft availability and materiel readiness by incorporating health and usage leading indicators into the failure mode mitigation process, enabling the Warfighter to more efficiently meet mission requirements through automated analysis and decision making processes. The CBM+ initiative increases readiness through streamlined maintenance processes which provide the sustainment base with timely, actionable logistics/engineering data and integrated analytics not previously available, enabling engineers and acquisition professionals to support system improvements based on CBM+ acquired data and analytic results. CBM+ provides the enabling infrastructure and storage solutions within an Enterprise common environment needed to store and analyze weapon system sensor data to extend the life of current and new acquisition aircraft, realizing savings from reductions in field (organizational and intermediate) maintenance actions, reduced functional check flight hours, mishap mitigation, and reduced parts usage. Aviation Logistics Environment (ALE) provides a global logistics enterprise solution, delivering capabilities via a net-centric, shared data environment that supports shore-based, afloat, and expeditionary operations. ALE consists of three components; Ground Station, Aviation PLM, and Enterprise Service Bus (ESB). The Maintenance Engineering Ground Station for Aviation (MEGA) is the Naval Aviation Type/Model/Series (T/M/S)-agnostic ground station. MEGA is currently under development using Government off-the-Shelf (GOTS) software and PLM/ESB is configuring Commercial off-the-Shelf (COTS). The Aviation Product Lifecycle Management (Aviation PLM) capability will provide the digital thread of aviation logistics data for allowable and as-configured Repair Bill of Materials (R BOM) sustainment, technical bulletins, technical directives and engineering change proposals, and reliability centered maintenance and maintenance planning. The Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) capability will provide the digital backbone for data connections to and from authoritative data sources. ALE consolidates aging, near-end-of-life systems and applications and aligns Information Assurance (IA) and cybersecurity requirements. Vector (formally Integrated Logistics Management System (ILSMS)) supports the development of a common logistics analytical application which uses a disciplined approach to Business Intelligence (BI) architecture by combining products, data, technology and methods aimed at key Naval Aviation Enterprise (NAE) business processes. Vector provides a single view of the data to focus on aircraft readiness, maintenance, supply, cost, and man-hours. Vector provides naval aviation with a common view of approved key performance metrics and the capability to perform multi-system analysis of Ready for Tasking (RFT)/Ready Basic Aircraft (RBA) Gap drivers, 'Top-Down' aircraft systems analysis down to the component level. Vector identifies system performance trends early to mitigate future readiness and cost impacts to the fleet. -Dynamic Scheduling optimizes aircraft (BuNo specific), engine and component maintenance through task sequencing based on reliability and failure data, and asset utilization vice calendar directed maintenance. Dynamic Scheduling will have insight to demand across the NAE and can affect maintenance across all levels of maintenance. Dynamic Scheduling IT system capability will interface with authoritative source systems providing and consuming operational demand, man power, training, supply and others. Near term Dynamic Scheduling capability is planned for NALCOMIS OOMA and future state DS capability is planned for NAMS implementation. Both material and non-material changes implemented along with the DS IT system will provide capability that overcomes the challenges faced by the as-is state to include: Advanced scheduling capabilities interfaced with current future MRO system to enable system assisted scheduling, optimization and opportunistic maintenance. -Insight and the ability to collaborate and affect schedules across all levels of maintenance and MRO systems. -Capture and analysis of RCM mitigations strategies with the ability to quickly implement changes to maintenance tasks and periodicities. -The ability to package Technical Manuals for serial number specific, scheduled event tasks at the point of maintenance. -The ability to provide additional point of maintenance technical data and support to enable the maintainer of the future. Optimized Scheduled Maintenance and Dynamic Scheduling IT system capabilities will contribute to the reduction of MMHs and increase in operational availability objectives by positively affecting the efficiency of maintenance at the O, I & D-Levels of maintenance across the NAE. Future state OSM IT system capability may be provided by the Aviation Logistics Environment (ALE)/Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) solutions. Dynamic Scheduling IT capability is schedule to be developed as an interface to NALCOMIS OOMA in FY 19 timeframe. Future state version of Dynamic Scheduling IT capability will interoperate with Naval Aviation Maintenance System (NAMS) and other future state system such as Naval Data Repository (NDR), ALE/PLM, and Navy Depot Management System (NDMS).
