COMMAND POST COMPUTING ENVIRONMENT (CPCE)
Abstract
The Command Post Computing Environment (CPCE), one of the six computing environments under the Common Operating Environment (COE) initiative, provides a Common Infrastructure and Common Services for Warfighter capabilities. The resulting operating environment will allow twenty-six (26) products/systems to leverage the CPCE's Common Core Software Baseline and Hardware Configuration, simplifying future development efforts and enhancing interoperability and data sharing. The CPCE enables Command and Control (C2) capability development at tactical echelons that span from the company to all Army Service Component Commands (ASCC) and thus, is the most employed and critical computing environment developed to support the command posts and combat operations. Operationally, Army formations encounter a variety of complex environments where boundaries between tactical and strategic levels of war have merged. This requires a computing environment capability that will simplify operations, enhance the Common Operational Picture (COP), provide integrated applications and data, enhance communications in disconnected, intermittent, and limited bandwidth (DIL) environments, and automate software updates. Additional CPCE goals include: Multi-Echelon reach (ASCC thru Battalion), Cross Cutting Capabilities (CCCs), C2 on the Move (C2OTM), Strategic and Tactical Operational and intelligence data sharing, Unified Data on a Common Map, and Sharing Data to Other Computing Environments (Mobile Handheld, Mounted, Sensors, etc.). Acquisition Goals of the CPCE include: Acquisition Agility, Open Architectures, Reduced Life Cycle Costs, and a Cyber-Hardened Foundation for applications and services.
