Army Global C2 System

Abstract

Global Command and Control System-Army (GCCS-A): This project is the Army component of the Global Command and Control System (GCCS) Family of Systems (FoS). GCCS-A provides automated command and control tools, including Force readiness, planning and movement, and situational awareness, for Army Strategic and Operational Theater commanders to enhance warfighter capabilities throughout the spectrum of conflict during Joint and combined operations in support of National Security. GCCS-A dramatically improves the Army's ability to analyze courses of action, develop and manage Army forces and execute war plans. GCCS-A links the GCCS-Joint Common Operating Picture with the Army Mission Command systems. In accordance with Army Command Post Computing Environment and Joint Command and Control objectives, GCCS-A is being re-architected away from a scalable process architecture based server - thick client architecture to a virtualized server - Battle Command Common Services (BCCS)/Tactical Server Infrastructure (TSI) and Mission Command Workstation. GCCS-A will transition into sustainment in FY19. The Defense Readiness Reporting System- Army (DRRS-A) is the Army's Authoritative Readiness Reporting System. This information technology system provides unit readiness reporting, unit registration and force planning and projection activities to enable Title 10 reporting to Congress. All Fiscal Year 2019 base funding will support DRRS-A. Specifically this funding will provide additional system enhancements and testing to support emerging developmental requirements to satisfy the Army's and Joint readiness reporting capabilities along with ensuring interoperability of Army and Joint Systems. DRRS-A is the Army's critical enabler which directly enables the Quarterly Readiness report to Congress.
