Applications Development

Abstract

Command and Control, Incident Management, Emergency Response Application (C2IMERA) is a C2 system that addresses installation commanders' and staff's ability to execute combat air operations. C2IMERA funds provide enhanced installation command and control to improve decision speed, quality, and lethality by incorporating direct user feedback, connecting people, automating daily operations, and integrating data from myriad systems. C2IMERA receives input from users and system interfaces and the data is displayed on the real-time, interactive COP. C2IMERA provides automated communications via COP, emails, notifications, and alerts, alleviating the need for briefings, meetings, and radio communication. As part of C2IMERA emergency management, Disaster Response Force Common Operating Picture (DRF COP) funds identify and/or develop, implement, and maintain a standardized, singular, and near real-time situational awareness COP for Air Force disaster response forces. DRF COP supports incidents or events at the tactical, operational, and strategic level, allowing information to be shared and exchanged across the Air Force enterprise and other relevant external agencies within the Continental United States (CONUS) and Outside the Continental United States (OCONUS) Air Force Installations. As part of the Command and Control Operations Career Field (1C3X1) requirements, which are synergistic with DRF COP, Command Post funds Installation Command and Control of Base Operations, Mission Management and Monitoring, Higher Headquarters Information Exchange Requirements (IERs), Emergency Action Messaging, and key enablers supporting the Wing Operations Center and Agile Combat Employment. C2IMERA FY22 funds will support the development of enhanced architecture to make C2IMERA more scalable and also to further integrate with other systems for machine to machine exchanges. This begins a transition of C2IMERA application functionality into Joint All Domain Execution System (JADES), which is a cohesive Wing C2 execution ecosystem that functions during Agile Combat Employment (ACE) operations in a peer conflict and during disconnected operations. This program is part of the overarching Kessel Run portfolio. This program element may include necessary civilian pay expenses required to manage, execute, and deliver C2IMERA weapon system capability. The use of such programs funds would be in addition to the civilian pay expenses budgeted in program element 0605831F. In FY19 $00.000M, in FY20 $00.000M, and in FY21 $00.00M was expended for civilian pay expenses in this program element. As directed in the FY 2018 NDAA, Sec 825, amendment to PL 114-92 FY 2016 NDAA, Sec 828 Penalty for Cost Overruns, the FY 2019 Air Force penalty total is 50.0M. The calculated percentage reduction to each research, development, test and evaluation and procurement account will be allocated proportionally from all programs, projects, or activities under such account. This program is in Budget Activity 7, Operational System Development because this budget activity includes development efforts to upgrade systems that have been fielded or have received approval for full rate production and anticipate production funding in the current or subsequent fiscal year.
