Centralized Technical Support Facility (CTSF)
Abstract
Project C29 - Centralized Technical Support Facility: The Central Technical Support Facility (CTSF) is the Army's premier test and certification facility for System of Systems interoperability. It is the Army's strategic facility responsible for conducting engineering support associated with test integration of Army Mission Command architectures into the Army Interoperability Certification (AIC) system of systems environment, performing AIC testing and conducting configuration management for all operational and tactical level applications (individual systems, System of Systems, and Families of Systems) prior to fielding. The CTSF provides validated test data to the Department of the Army and Joint agencies to accredit interoperability certifications. The distributed test environment of the CTSF is accomplished through the Federated Net-centric Sites (FaNS) construct. This FaNS construct addresses distributed integration development and testing using the core infrastructure of the CTSF to harness AMC, Army, and Joint expertise/resources. Through these federated resources, the CTSF executes interoperability development and certification testing of the Warfighter mission areas, to include Network Evaluation spinouts, as they digitize and become part of the Army's LandWarNet.
