1 The Net-Enabled Future: An OCTANe Discussion Panel Topic Sheryl Sizelove, The Boeing Company Network Centric Operations Industry Consortium (NCOIC) 27 September 2006 Approved by Boeing Export. Authorization No. RLG081

2 What is Network Centric Operations (NCO)? an Information Age Transformation Getting the Right Information to only the Right People, at the Right Place and Time It s all about being More Effective

3 Fundamental Information Needs Where am I? Where are my friends? Where is the enemy? What is the enemy s intent? Where am I? Where are the airplanes? What is the weather enroute? What is the best route? Knowledge Learning Comfort, Pleasure Decision Support Situational Control Situational Awareness Safety/Protection Where am I? Where are the dangers? Where are my compatriots? What are the hazards? Where are we? Where are the kids? Where am I? When will I arrive? What is my schedule? Where am I? What is the weather? What should I apply to my crops? How are the fields?

4 Three Major Parts of NCO New capabilities and technologies that enable communication, information sharing and collaboration within and among communities Technology Describes how we organize and the protocol that defines how we Interact in a netenabled environment Operational Doctrine Culture Our willingness to change, trust, delegate and enable NCO characterizes new operational doctrine that leverages new capabilities, organizational structures and behaviors

5 Issues in Achieving NCO Stovepipe system design limits System-of-System capabilities Comms for existing systems are often point-to-point (non-networked) Transition from Integrated Performance-Oriented Systems to Service-Oriented Architectures (SOA) Security and Concerns over Control of Data Increasingly Joint & Coalition military operations Increasingly involving Civilian and Non-Government Agencies Limited Budgets: Having to Do More with Less Schedules: Too short to implement; Too long to obtain Cultural Resistance That s Not How We Do Things Turf concerns Fear of Change Technology is is a Challenge, but Cultural Change is is a Bigger Challenge!

6 NCOIC Consortium Vision: Industry working together with with our our customers to to provide a network centric centric environment where where all all classes of of information systems interoperate by by integrating existing and and emerging open open standards into into a common evolving global global framework that that employs a common set set of of principles and and processes. Primary tenets of the Consortium s vision: Work to identify and develop a Network Centric environment Provide assured technical interoperability Embrace, enhance, and encourage open standards Establish and educate on common principles and processes Mission: Mission: Facilitate Facilitate global global realization realization of of the the benefit benefit inherent inherent in in Network NetworkCentric Operations. Operations. We We seek seek to to enable enable continuously continuously increasing increasing levels levels of of interoperability interoperability across across the the spectrum spectrum of of joint, joint, interagency, interagency, intergovermental, intergovermental, and and multinational multinational industrial industrial and and commercial commercial operations. operations. We We will will execute execute this this mission mission in in good good faith faith as as a a global global organization organization with with membership membership open open to to all all enterprises enterprises in in quest quest of of applying applying the the vast vast potential potential of of network network centric centric technology technology to to the the operational operational challenges challenges faced faced by by our our nations nations and and their their citizens. citizens.
