A Shifting focus


s the Warfighter Information Network-Tactical (WIN-T) program transitions into the production phase, WIN-T Increment 2 Product Manager LTC Lamont Hall faces a challenge: changing the focus from the agile, process-oriented model used for development and test-


ing to a disciplined, sequential approach for the large-scale effort of fielding, training and maintaining the equipment in the field.


“Instead of focusing on a single brigade combat team’s [BCT] development and testing, we’re now fielding and training up to 10 BCTs per year and maintaining the current force of 14 fielded BCTs and three division headquarters,” said Hall.


Hall noted that he’ll use a three-pronged approach to address that challenge: continuous and focused command emphasis, organizational adjustments for the project manager and the prime contractor, and implementation of new reporting and monitoring processes for production activities.


What do you do in your position, and why is it important to the Army or the warfighter?


I am responsible for the research, development, integration, testing and fielding of WIN-T Increment 2. I also manage all life-cycle aspects of the program to ensure that they are in compliance with the approved cost, schedule and perfor- mance baselines. As we transition into the production phase of the program, we are focused more than ever on fielding fully supportable systems and capabilities that meet reliability, availability and maintainability requirements.


After 22 years, the greatest satisfaction for me is still the privilege and honor of being a Soldier and the opportunity to work with, teach, train and mentor some of the great Soldiers and civilians we have in the Army and the AL&T Workforce.
