Command, Control, Communications, Computer, Combat Systems, and Intelligence Modernization Process (C5IMP) and Fleet Readiness (C5ISR)
Abstract
This project funds engineering assessments of proposed C5I capability modernizations to determine maturity for installation and risk associated with installs of equipment outside of normal modernization windows. This project is required to support the fleet C5I Modernization Policy (per COMUSFLTFORCOM/COMPACFLT Inst. 4720.3B), to manage operational risks associated with C5ISR modernization in both afloat and ashore units ensuring deploying units receive improved, interoperable, and certified warfighting capabilities in order to meet theater operational requirements. This is done by determining the maturity, through engineering analysis, of the critical linchpins needed to achieve interoperability for each proposed C5IMP capability improvement item to be installed in a ships baseline (Baseline Change), developing installation recommendations of C5I system upgrades for the Fleet Commanders, and researching and analyzing installation or operating problems. Failure to achieve required maturity can break the warfare system package installed on a ship and impact strike group capabilities. There is close coordination with the FLTCDRs and TYCOMs as well as other members of the C5IMP community to address, coordinate, and resolve C5IMP modernization issues thereby reducing risk and enhancing readiness and effectiveness of deploying ships and strike groups. Strike Group Engineers (SGEs) analyze planned C5I configurations of ships and Strike Groups; identify and analyze capability, interoperability, and modernization issues in a Strike Group context; assess impacts against requirements; and provide recommendations for resolution.
