Nuclear Planning and Execution System (NPES)

Abstract

Nuclear Planning and Execution System: NPES develops and delivers a software system to conduct nuclear command and control (NC2) adaptive planning and execution at fixed and mobile sites in real time. NPES an automated information system that supports all phases of nuclear conflict and provides for various levels of support of all command and control software engineering (C2SES) projects. NPES Legacy encompassed cyber related investments necessary for a successful operational application/system delivery, for fixed command centers, distributive sites and mobile platforms. NPES Recapitalization (Recap) succeeded NPES Legacy and provides communication interfaces with software development, data management, software re-engineering and operations to include requirements validation and training. NPES Recap modernizes decision support, knowledge management, information visualization, an integrated-fused depiction of global battle space, and common missile event picture. This is a Section 804 Alpha Phase rapid software prototyping effort. This effort includes decomposing system, functional and non-functional requirements in order to design, build, and field a new NPES application software baseline via agile, development operations (DevOps), and user-centered design principles. Further, the effort includes developing written artifacts to document system / software engineering elements appropriate for an Agile/DevOps software development effort. No FY 2023 funding requested; FY 2023 project efforts are detailed in PE 0608158F BA-08, Strategic Mission Planning and Execution System (SMPES). This program element may include necessary civilian pay expenses required to manage, execute, and deliver NPES weapon system capability. The use of such program funds would be in addition to the civilian pay expenses budgeted in program elements 0605826F, 0605827F, 0605828F, 0605829F, 0605830F, 0605831F,0605833F, 0605832F, and 0605898F.
