future implementation decisions. Instead of having to procure, field, sustain and modernize equipment on its own for every unit and every mission, SaaMS will enable the Army to lease these capabilities at the point of need. Tis business model would be scalable to expand or contract as missions change, helping to reduce on-hand inventory, satellite airtime and cost. SaaMS would ensure bandwidth is allocated at the right place and time to support data exchange in a wide variety of mission sets.
CONCLUSION It can’t be overstated that underpinning all the Army’s efforts to increase network capability, capacity and resiliency is the need to increase simplicity, since more and more Soldiers going to the battlefield are not signal trained. Teir primary mission is to shoot, move and communicate.
Balancing the need for increased capabil- ities with the need to reduce complexity is a difficult job, but as commercial technol- ogies continue to evolve and mature, the Army will continue to partner with indus- try to ensure capabilities become simpler to use.
