Enterprise Ground Services (EGS)
Abstract
Enterprise Ground Services (EGS) is envisioned to provide a robust enterprise ground architecture for Air Force space systems, which leverages mission commonality and automation to reduce sustainment costs and re-focus manpower on warfighting capabilities. In addition, EGS will enable a near-real-time common operating picture of enterprise-wide tactical health, status, indications, and warnings for Air Force satellites. The end-state will be a modern technical infrastructure which is cyber-secure and resilient against the Advanced Persistent Threat and employs streamlined architecting, acquisition, and operational processes. Through early architecture studies and prototyping, the government will establish clear ownership of the technical baseline to meet Better Buying Power principles as the EGS effort evolves through development. This effort provides focus and expertise for the development, test, certification and enforcement of standards and interfaces for all AFSPC satellite ground systems to enable transition planning for legacy ground systems, new capability demonstrations, and systems acquisition leading to an enterprise ground architecture for Air Force space systems.
