This support spans across over 24 organizations, covers nearly 6,000 individual customers, and countless worldwide end users. 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. NMCI ENTERPRISE SERVICE TOOLS (NEST) Next Generation Enterprise Network (NGEN) utilizes the NMCI Enterprise Service Tools (NEST) as an integrated set of tools that facilitate the full service lifecycle management (SLM) of customer service requests for IT services, including RAPT (Requirement to Award Process Tool), NET (NMCI Enterprise Tool), Task Order Management (TOM), and Enterprise Reporting. NEST is considered a Government Owned and Managed Ordering Defense Business System (DBS) that has a valid ATO. NEXT GENERATION ENTERPRISE NETWORK (NGEN) NETWORK ARCHITECHTURE DESIGN AND TESTING NGEN is utilizing a rapid, agile systems engineering and pilot approach, leveraging leading industry experts to design and execute a transformative architecture across the spectrum of services which drives towards the design and implementation of modern services. Modern services provide for better delivering on requirements with optimal cloud consumption, domain singularity, mobility, resilience, increased customer experience and enhanced security. These modernized services are on parity with industry, which is ready to meet changing mission needs and achieve competitive Naval advantage through a constant state of Information Readiness and outcomes will be measured via Worldclass Alignment Metrics (WAM). Navy's Digitization Journey is dependent upon the Navy's Enterprise Network. The modernized platform will meet today and future mission requirements. This multi-year effort and investment is needed to finalize and adjudicate a Target Enterprise Architecture (TEA), identify obsolescent technologies associated with Navy network platforms, and aid in the integration of users and services, implement enabling business processes and service management frameworks, and provide sustaining activity guidance for future investment areas across all classification levels and operating environments. NGEN will implement a new network architecture design, a technical enterprise architecture that integrates rationalized users and services, implements enabling business processes and service management frameworks and provides guidance for future investment areas across all classification levels and operating environments. This includes network modeling & simulation, performance-based prototypes and applied research in future technologies affecting network architectures to advance the state of networks across all domains. 2903 NAVAIR IT 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. Further, this line sustains Naval Aviation's Red Team capability to research, identify and validate nation-state exploitable cyber susceptibilities and vulnerabilities in both deployed and next-generation warfighting platforms. Through it, these efforts improve Naval Aviation's mission survivability by developing and demonstrating operational TTPs within the cyber contested environment. The team partners with Naval Aviation programs to certify theorized cyber weaknesses and thus to prevent denial, degradation or disruption of safety, readiness, and mission. The Red Team's assessment products support CYBERSAFE certification of platforms and systems, and likewise supports PMAs and OPNAV with validated threat data prioritizing systems security engineering (SSE) investments. The team leverages national-level cyber warfare experts, all-source intelligence, and technology research to assess NAE operational technology, fleet exercises, support equipment, enterprise logistics systems, and supply chain. Digital Thread (DT) - Funding provides a Naval Enterprise Solution to manage technical data required for weapons systems to promote workforce automation, resource optimization, and process standardization for program lifecycle management and to integrate acquisition with the warfighter. This will support future state for Logistics IT and enhancing Readiness in providing an enterprise solution with Naval Product Lifecycle Management (N-PLM). N-PLM is integral to Digital Log IT, supporting the Naval Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (N-MRO), Naval Supply Chain Management (N-SCM). Digital Thread (DT) is the capability providing 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. DT capability will benefit the speed to the Fleet with reduction of active legacy systems that stakeholders (PMAs, Squadrons, Depots, OEM, and Shipyards) are accessing for authoritative data. Digital Production Floor (DPF) - Initiative modernizes Navy Aviation Depots by removing paper from the Production floor and integrating key Quality elements to support a true digital North Star ensuring viability and alignment with broader Naval Logistics IT (LOG-IT) enterprise initiatives to realize a fully unified digital sustainment capability. This capability aligns and leverages ongoing Digital Thread /Aviation Product Lifecycle Management (AvPLM) efforts to transform our existing way of doing business and align us with commercial best practices for digitization of business processes. Current paper based processes have demonstrated inefficiencies and administrative delays in performance, degraded quality of product, and increased Depot level repair turnaround times. Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) - Digital tracking infrastructure enabling enhanced inventory and asset tracking capability with real-time or near real time visibility of fixed and rolling assets for accountability. Signed DD200s document lost tagged assets, therefore, each of these assets are large enough to be tagged. This capability will reduce the amount of DD200s by approximately 95%. By digitizing this capability, labor man-hours spent manually performing inventory tasking requirements will be reduced by ~33% overall. This initiative will provide the necessary foundational infrastructure and enable expansion to other use cases such as tool control, parts tracking, and HAZMAT tracking. Moving from manual, labor-intensive (~30 man-years) inventory method for fixed and rolling assets to an automatic digital method will provide real-time or near real time visibility into asset location throughout the facility, alerts when assets that are taken out of a geo-fenced location, and the ability to perform frequent inventory inspections; therefore, providing enhanced asset management. This will be accomplished by the implementation of compatible and integrated solutions via a blended technology approach (i.e. RFID, GPS, etc.) that is in direct support of the objective to realize a full Digital Production Floor at the Aviation Depots. Additive Manufacturing (AM) - Provides for the development of the Additive Manufacturing/3D Printing Process, Material Verification and Qualification to support deployment of Additive Manufacturing capability to Fleet Depot and Level II Maintenance level facilities, as well as provides for the Qualification, Validation, Testing and incorporation of private industry Additive Manufacturing initiatives across the Naval Aviation Enterprise to include NAVSUP and DLA. Additionally Additive Manufacturing funds Cooperative Research and Development Activities (CRADAs) support with Industry Partners and next generation AM studies. This effort will fund the development, test and approval of additional Polymer Material Data Curves, Polymer material certification for aviation applications and System Documentation/Training updates of additional high strength Polymers for use on deployed Additive Manufacturing systems. This will support deployed systems in producing Critical parts for Aircraft, Support Equipment and Aircraft Launch and Recovery Equipment, while enhancing Naval Aviation Readiness and Lethality allowing point of need part manufacturing to mitigate supply support shortfall, dramatically decreasing Mean Logistics Delay Times (MLDT) and increasing aircraft availability. 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 MyNavy HR MyNavy Human Resources (HR) Transformation - formerly known as Manpower, Personnel, Training & Education (MPT&E) Transformation -- will change how we recruit, 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 investing 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 anticipated Fleet 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. MNHR ITS 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. AUTHORITATIVE DATA ENVIRONMENT (ADE) The Authoritative Data Environment (ADE) is an enterprise information management system that will migrate the existing MyNavy HR 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 MyNavy HR eCRM solution integrates business processes, supporting systems, and authoritative data to manage the Navy's workforce. eCRM is a key component of the Navy Recruiting Command's (NRC) Applicant Relationship Management (ARM), Navy Personnel Command's (NPC) My Navy Career Center (MNCC), as well as Navy Education & Training Command (NETC) and other commands that manage the Navy workforce. The eCRM solution integrates business processes such as knowledge management, case management, performance management, and recruiting with authoritative data and automated workflows to support the Navy's recruiting efforts, manage the Navy's military workforce and their families from hire to retire and provide Sailors access to a 24/7 help center to answer HR related questions. eCRM has quarterly program increments (PI) with two planned capability deliveries within each PI. eCRM embraces continuous integration and continuous delivery of capability, so agile teams are actively involved in planning, development, testing, training and releases all year long. New capabilities, change requests, hot fixes and maintenance are included in each quarterly program increment to respond to customer needs. The eCRM solution is organized by the following three segments, with dedicated resources supporting each segment: 1.The Navy Personnel Command Organization which is comprised of: a.Human Resources Service Center (HRSC) - Supports the Navy's active, reserve, retiree and dependent communities around the world, with a state-of-the-art fully integrated telephony solution and 24/7 help center. b.Personnel and Pay (PERSPAY) - Supports the Navy's active, reserve, retiree and dependent communities in documenting personnel and pay actions. This occurs through direct application support and through integration and coordination with the HRSC. c.Physical Readiness Information Management System 2 (PRIMS2) - Supports the Navy physical fitness readiness through a system-of-systems leveraging MyNavy Portal (MNP), ICAM, eCRM, and ADE. 2.The Navy Recruiting Command Organization, which is comprised of: a.Applicant Relationship Management (ARM) which includes most of the tools the recruiters use each day. 3.The Learning Stack (LS) Organization, which is comprised of: a.A Curriculum Development System (CDS) supporting NETC. 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 - MyNavy Training (MNT) MyNavy Learning (MNL)/Learning Content Management System (LCMS) (formally known as Learning Object Repository (LOR)) MyNavy Learning (MNL): User Interface (UI)/User Experience (UX), Recommender Curriculum Data System (CDS) RRL Rating & Career Domain Continuum (RCDC) Student Information System (SIS) Enterprise Resource Scheduler (ERS) 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 develop and sustain 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 minimally-customizable vanilla configured 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 integrated, unified capability that includes MyNavy Portal (MNP), Mobile Applications, and Identity, Credential and Access Management (ICAM). It also includes integration with eCRM, LS, NP2, and ADE solutions. SPOE consolidates the Navy's HR portals, knowledge, and applications into a single simplified Sailor experience. Through a multi-phased modernization approach, SPOE provides an intuitive self-service capability for Sailors to view and manage their personnel and career information. It provides Active and Reserve Sailors with personalized interactive experiences and access to relevant information including learning content, HR applications, and career business processes. SPOE forms a foundational capability for the MyNavy Career Center (MNCC) by connecting its portal and ICAM functionality with eCRM. The Navy's strategy for transformation of its MyNavy HR capabilities relies on SPOE as the user-facing capability linking Sailors to modernized personnel and pay capabilities, MyNavy Training (MNT), and ADE. SPOE includes processes, capabilities, and functionalities, such as: 1. Integration of capabilities to include: My Navy Portal (MNP), Mobile Applications, CRM solution, and Identity Credential Access Management (ICAM) 2. MNP A. Serve as the My NavyHR's single point of entry to Sailors HR resource B. Provide capability to have a low bandwidth version accessible to Sailors operating in a restricted bandwidth environment C.

LOG-IT systems must be able to operate in disconnected environments with modern, cyber-secure and auditable systems that Compress the Kill Chain. The MBPS program is major authoritative data source for LOG-IT. The MBPS program modernizes ship / submarine readiness modeling, technical data management, and configuration management IT systems to enable advanced digital twin and readiness analytics capabilities. MBPS provides capability directed by ASN RDA (IAW ASN RDA Acquisition Decision Memorandum of 5/25/2021) in support of Digital Transformation to migrate legacy LOG IT applications into an integrated Navy Product Life-Cycle Management (N-PLM) environment to include both maritime and aviation support. It will be hosted in a Government-approved commercial cloud environment and used on a 24/7 basis by over 200,000 personnel assigned to 286 ships/submarines, all aircraft and over 700 shore-based activities, impacting a yearly $6.5B investment in product sustainment. Additional resources are required to complete MBPS capability to execute the replacement of legacy LOG IT systems into N-PLM to support Planned Maintenance, Modernization Planning, and Operational Availability reporting. Use of RDT&E funding allows for performance of engineering development, design testing, data integration, training development and cybersecurity requirements and award capability development via Other Transaction Authority or via PTC development contract to complete MBPS MVPs and align efforts with NAVAIR under PEO MLB to transition to a single Navy PLM beginning in FY23. 3167 JOINT TECHNICAL DATA INTEGRATION (JTDI) Joint Technical Data Integration (JTDI) Program - Funding provides an enterprise common data transport solution to support the future state for Logistics IT and Readiness: Naval Product Lifecycle Management (N-PLM), Naval Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (N-MRO), Naval Supply Chain Management (N-SCM), and Integrated Data Environment (IDE). In addition to transporting authoritative technical data to maintainers in the ashore, afloat, and expeditionary environments, JTDI also automates the movement of CBM+ data generated by smart weapon systems deployed around the globe, consolidates and makes platform sensor data available for automated ingest into the Standard Data Repository, which provides modern, highly integrated analytic capabilities to enable condition-based maintenance processes. JTDI is a digital technical data access, delivery and local Organizational & Intermediate level library management toolset that improves accuracy and timeliness of weapon system repair manuals and other technical data delivery, minimizes the Fleet's library management burden, and reduces maintenance work hours with a Return on Investment of 2.5:1. 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 Corps activities. JTDI is aligned with NAVAIR LOG IT digital transformation objectives and Navy Digital Roadmap. Marine Aviation Logistics Enterprise Information Technology (MAL-EIT) - MAL-EIT 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 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. MAL-EIT is a family of IT solutions to be developed and delivered in three increments. These increments are depicted below: Expeditionary Pack Up Kit (EPUK): Provides Expeditionary Supply Operations to include business administration, inventory, and customer service operations. Next Generation Buffer Management System: Provides buffer management in a time domain, and buffer sizing analysis. Logistics Planning Tool and Optimizer Tool: Provides capability to develop tailored Remote Expeditionary Support Packages, consumption forecasts, and Nodal Logistics Lay down designs. 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 Maintenance Data Warehouse funds the Naval Aviation Enterprise (NAE) components, in coordination with Navy LOG-IT, of digital transformation, which is a critical component of improving readiness; giving Navy users access to authoritative truth data and automating inefficient manual processes. It will be executed in a fully agile manner providing continuous fleet readiness improvements across the FYDP. The initial 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 Logistics Environment (ALE) provides the Naval Aviation Enterprise (NAE) components, in coordination with Navy LOG-IT, of digital transformation, which is a critical component of improving readiness; giving Navy users access to authoritative truth data and automating inefficient manual processes. It will be executed in a fully agile manner providing continuous fleet readiness improvements across the FYDP. The initial 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 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. 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. To provide the warfighter with a common view of Logistics IT data, the time consuming tasks of collecting, extracting, transforming, and loading source data will enable an federated data view that will reduce and ultimately eliminate duplicative and manual processes, while providing visibility and access to trusted data for decision support. 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+ technologies, acquired data, and business process integration of 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. Vector supports the development of a common logistics analytical tool suite, which provides a single view of data and insights focused 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. This is critical for fleet understanding of readiness degraders and issue resolution.
