NIE Test & Evaluation
Abstract
This project supports test and evaluation portion of Phase V of the Army's Agile Network Integration process. The project will conduct the actual Network Integration Evaluation at White Sands Missile Range, NM which evaluates the integrated soldier and weapon systems operational impact on the brigade to include DOTMLPF. The results of Phase V will address and answer senior Army leadership's questions about force makeup and effectiveness and provides Army leadership recommendations for improving operational requirements and enhancing technical specifications. The Army leadership will then determine which systems to procure and field in future Tactical Capability Sets to improve the Army's Network and Brigade Capability. This project includes government and contractor efforts to develop detailed test scenarios and evaluation criteria for field based evaluations of the Brigade Combat Team, and then conduct the evaluations and verifications of the Brigade as part of that NIE. As part of the evaluation process, this project includes the development of the data collection plans, the instrumentation of the systems in the Brigade, and also the data collectors and analysis of the test results. This project also includes the development and distribution of the detailed, technical evaluation reports which provides the ability to identify which equipment; needs further development, is ready for NIE participation, or is ready for integration into a future Tactical Capability Set. Lastly, this project includes all the costs for supporting the test, such as, but not limited to; SATCOM satellite time, MEDEVAC support during test, helicopter blade time, POL and other test support materials, equipment, personnel and facilities.
