Manpower Pers & Human Fact System

Abstract

This program is under RDT&E operational systems development because it encompasses engineering and development of new end-items prior to production approval decision and the upgrading and enhancement of existing Manpower, Personnel, Training and Education (MPT&E) decision support systems, tools and models. This non-acquisition category program provides funds for continued R&D for broader application of advanced technologies to transition successful research proof-of-concept demonstrations into operational use. This Program Element (PE) provides funding to support the transition of models and decision support tools from RDT&E funded to production and into the hands of analysts and program managers throughout the Manpower, Personnel, Training and Education enterprise. The PE also supports the application of proven industry models, tools and methodologies to Navy MPT&E problems where government-off-the-shelf (GOTS) solutions are non-existent. The second goal of the PE is to successfully implement 90% of the industry-standard tools that are attempted to be used in Navy applications. In this case the Naval War College procuring and modifying an integrated, state-of-the-art information management / knowledge-management (IM / KM) system that environment that supports the College's unique educational and research activities. Informed by IM/KM best practices, elements of this environment will enhance the Naval War College (NWC) ability to achieve objectives in its mission areas of education, research, cooperative / international engagement, and combat readiness. This effort will allow NWC to support the Chairman Joint Chiefs of Staff (CJCS) vision for education as a career/lifelong learning endeavors, Navy's education strategy and CNO's Sailor 2025 initiative by dramatically increasing NWC communication of research, gaming and education results to the broader military and Navy communities. Faced with complex challenges to efficiently and effectively attract, develop, and retain Navy Sailors, N1 has prepared an MPT&E Transformation plan to combat threats to mission readiness. The strategic vision and desired end-state of the endeavor is a holistic modernization of models, processes, and information technology, to dramatically improve the quality of MPT&E service delivery. There are too many Legacy IT Systems, an overly complex data management system, and limited Sailor-Self-Service options with no mobile access. The IT Transformation will focus on two primary strategies: maximizing the utilization of commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) technologies and the implementation of cloud based technologies. Together these two approaches will improve both the service to Sailors and to Fleet readiness, reduce our technology footprint and increase accountability and audit readiness. Research and Development funds for MPT&E Transformation under PE 0604703N have been consolidated within PE 0605013N Project Unit 2905 starting in FY19. In accordance with the MPT&E transformation plan, legacy systems will be replaced by modern and robust solutions that better support Navy's ability to execute its mission and efficiently allocate its resources. N1 will provide the access, schematics, and other pertinent information regarding the existing architecture, artifacts, and visualizations to enable this transformation. Migrating the data housed within these disparate systems to centralized, COTS-configured applications will reduce costs, eliminate redundancy, and streamline processes in accordance with the goals set forth in the transformational effort strategy. There are four key activities that set the foundation for holistic MPT&E transformation: 1) Navy Personnel and Pay System (NP2) includes Navy Personnel and Pay (NP2)Standard modernization and the collapse of Legacy Manpower System functionality; 2) 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)); 3) Learning Stack (LS) improves the accessibility, sophistication, and collaborative nature of educational outreach; 4) Authoritative Data Environment (ADE) will enable the collapse of 9 legacy data warehouses into a single, authoritative source of data truth for Sailors and Navy decision makers. Additionally, ADE will enable modern data analytics and business intelligence capabilities. All of the technology solutions will leverage hyperscale cloud based services in order to provide secure, accessible and cost effective business IT.
