MODERNIZATION AND ENTERPRISE COLLABORATION
JADC2 environment. ESI optimizes our life cycle engineering and sustainment functions across all elements of C5ISR, bridg- ing S&T and fielded systems.
KEYS TO SUCCESS Te center’s new structure provides the integrated approach necessary to achieve decision dominance while standardizing key processes and streamlining cross-organizational efforts in support of our S&T and lifecycle engineering missions.
Our support for the Integrated Visual Augmentation System (IVAS) is a good example of how this integrated concept is already working. Not only are we addressing the sensors and augmented reality components, we are also developing a conform- able, longer-running battery to power them. Passing that sensor data will be important, so we’re using our lab- and field-based
experimentation venues to evaluate industry radios being consid- ered for the IVAS Soldier network. Finally, we want our Soldiers to maintain situational awareness capabilities whether mounted or dismounted, so we’re using our prototyping and integration facilities to explore how best to integrate IVAS onto aircraft and ground combat vehicles to give Soldiers a better understanding of the battlespace before they enter it.
Before, the program of record would have dealt with up to six individual organizations to accomplish these tasks. Now, there is a single point of entry to the center that coordinates across our capabilities and expertise to provide quicker, streamlined, holis- tic support.
Our new structure also gives our scientists, engineers and busi- ness professionals the opportunity to expand their horizons, get involved in multiple functional areas and use their talents as broadly as possible. Tis will help us build a culture of greater collaboration, innovation and creativity, better supporting career development and job satisfaction for our employees while improv- ing capabilities that will ensure our Soldiers remain the most dominant land force in the world.
CONCLUSION We are committed to developing and maintaining a unified, inte- grated C5ISR culture and clear lines of communication within the organization. We also intend to simplify how our partners and stakeholders within the acquisition community, DEVCOM and industry interact with us.
Tere’s never been a better time to align to the future, and we are ensuring our organizational posture, structure, processes and culture are enabling us to deliver the best integrated capability possible to the warfighter. Te reshaped C5ISR Center is well positioned to address the Army’s modernization priorities and deliver capabilities supporting multidomain operations through 2035 and beyond.
