The Operational Impacts of the Global Network Enterprise Construct

Abstract

The purpose of this monograph is to examine the operational impacts of the Army's transformation of network enterprise management on the signal community, particularly the impacts upon Division and Corps G6 personnel. The Global Network Enterprise Construct will dramatically change the manner in which the Army draws enterprise services; in order for the transformation to be successful in attaining its goals, the signal community must take into account the impacts the transformation will have on the war fighters. The methodology of this paper is to first examine the Global Network Enterprise Construct in the context of how the Army managed networks in the past. This study traces the governmental and Department of Defense policies that the construct supports. The study outlines how the signal community expects to complete the transformation by 2015. Finally, it examines the lone operational deployment of a brigade supported by the construct followed by what the possible points of future friction are for the signal community as they transform Army enterprise management.
