Net-Centric Enterpise Services (NCES)

Abstract

The Program Executive Office (PEO) for Global Information Grid (GIG) Enterprise Services (GES) continues to expand their portfolio of services that currently includes the capabilities delivered by the Net-Centric Enterprise Services (NCES) Program, the deployment and sustainment of capabilities provided through the Vice-Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff initiatives, and the transition and operationalization of local services into the larger Department of Defense (DoD) enterprise. Critical Warfighter, Business, and Intelligence Mission Area services within the PEO GES portfolio include an enterprise Collaboration capability supporting over 300,000 DoD users, User Access (Portal) supporting two million users, Enterprise Search that exposes data sources throughout the DoD, and Service Oriented Architecture Foundation (SOAF). The PEO GES portfolio also includes the Strategic Knowledge Integration Web (SKIWeb) providing decision and event management support to all levels of a widespread user-base that ranges from the Combatant Commanders to the Joint Staff to Coalition partners on the SIPRNet. The individual suite of capabilities within the portfolio of services provides the user with the flexibility to couple the services in varying ways to support their mission needs. This flexibility provides unprecedented access to web and application content, critical imagery, intelligence and warfighter information, and stores critical data in a secure environment. The PEO GES portfolio of enterprise services delivers tangible benefits to the Department by providing capabilities that are applied by U.S. Forces, Coalition forces, and Allied forces to produce Net-Centricity and support full spectrum joint and expeditionary campaign operations. These benefits include: •Enhanced collaborative decision-making processes; •Improved information sharing and integrated situational awareness; •Ability to share and exchange knowledge and services between enterprise units and commands; •Ability to share and exchange information between previously unreachable and unconnected sources; •Knowledge exchange to enable situational awareness, determine the effects desired, select a course of action, the forces to execute it, and accurately assess the effects of that action; and •Improved ability to effectively operate inside the most capable adversaries’ decision loop. The portfolio contains capabilities that are also key enablers to the Defense Information Systems Agency’s (DISA) mission of providing a global net-centric enterprise infrastructure in direct support of joint Warfighter, National level leaders, and other mission and coalition partners across the full spectrum of operations. This support is outlined in the DISA Campaign Plan as “Enhance core Application Level Services”.
