POTUS: “DoD Will Be Agile”

“The United States is going to maintain our military superiority with armed forces that are agile, flexible and ready for the full range of contingencies and threats.” - President Obama

“The US joint force will be smaller and leaner. But its great strength will be that it will be more agile, more flexible, ready to deploy quickly, innovative, and technologically advanced. That is the force for the future.” - Secretary Panetta

Defense Security Review, 5 Jan 12

DoD Net-Centric Data Strategy (9 May 2003)

• Purpose– Describes a vision for a net-centric environment and the

data goals for achieving that vision– Defines approaches and actions that DoD personnel will

have to take as users—whether in a role as consumers and producers of data or as system and application developers

• DoD Instruction 8320.02 (signed Aug 5, 2013) directs the implementation of the DoD Net-Centric Data and Services Strategies

“The…DoD Net-Centric Data Strategy provides a key enabler of the Department’s Transformation by establishing the foundation for managing the Department’s data in a net-centric environment…. The strategy also introduces management of data within communities of interest (COIs) rather than standardizing data elements across the Department.” - John P. Stenbit (former DoD CIO)


DoD CIO

DoD Net-Centric Services Strategy (4 May 2007)

Purpose:– Describes the DoD’s vision for establishing a Net-

Centric Environment that increasingly leverages shared services and Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA)

– Expands upon the DoD Net-Centric Data Strategy by connecting services to the Data Strategy goals

“The Department of Defense (DoD) Net-Centric Services Strategy (NCSS) reflects the recognition by the DoD that this services oriented approach can result in an explosion of capabilities for our warfighters and decision makers, thereby increasing operational effectiveness.” - John G. Grimes (DOD CIO)

• Pre-determined “point to point” connections within systems and applications on disparate networks

• Producer “pushes” information to pre-defined consumers

TodayToday FutureFuture• Systems and applications are web-

enabled to expose their information• Authorized known & unanticipated

consumers “pull” or “subscribe to” what they need regardless of who produced the information

What is a COI?

Cross-Component

Cross-Service

Cross-Agency

Multi-National

“A collaborative group of users who exchange information in pursuit of their shared goals, interests, missions, or business

processes, and who therefore must have shared vocabulary for the information they exchange.”—CNSSI 4009, 26 Apr 2010

“A collaborative group of users who exchange information in pursuit of their shared goals, interests, missions, or business

processes, and who therefore must have shared vocabulary for the information they exchange.”—CNSSI 4009, 26 Apr 2010

“COIs … come together to address a specific

information sharing mission or challenge that

the COI can solve by exposing and sharing

data.”—DoD 8320.2-G, April 12, 2006

DoD Instruction 5000.02 Calls for Pilots

• DoDI 5000.02, Operation of the Defense Acquisition System, states:

– 5.d.(4)(b)2.a. …Risk reduction prototypes will be included …

– 5.d.(4)(c) … Multiple technology development demonstrations may be necessary …

Post Milestone-B programs (Development & Demonstation Phase) can (and should) spend current-year funds on pilot demonstrations

to define the next increment!

More on Funding…

• COIs succeed through active engagement and commitment of members and leadership to solve a specific information sharing problem

• COIs don’t directly control resources but COI members and leadership do– COI Authority comes from its membership and leadership

• Data producers (i.e., programs) should pay to expose their data on the DoD Information Network (DoDIN)

• The only “COI funding” is administrative overhead

DoD CIO

16

What do COIs do?

• Solve mission-specific information sharing problems

affecting their communities– Increase information sharing volume, speed, and

reach to known and unanticipated users– Provide a user forum to drive the Net-Centric approach

forward• Provide information exchange vocabulary

stewardship• Foster collaboration within and across communities• Build trust• Identify and help resolve enterprise issues

The COI Process

• Identify information sharing problem• Join existing COI or form new COI

• Identify and prioritize capabilities• Address information sharing problem increment

• Obtain user feedback• Make recommendations to Components and Mission Area

Leads

• Disband when appropriate

Key COI Lessons To Date • Cultural change is hard, technology is easy

– Willingness to share; TRUST; Optimize for the enterprise

• Cross-organization participation is essential– Strike COI: UK/Coalition involvement has enhanced community

– MDA COI: Active collaboration among DoD, DHS, IC, and DoT

• Pilots are an effective means to reduce risk– Clearly define scope, expectations, and resource commitments up

front; Document information sharing agreements early

– Must engage Resource Sponsors for year of execution funds

• Scoping is vital– Clearly defined so COI members have clarity of mission and unity of

effort; Tackle in achievable increments

• Incentivizing Net-Centric delivery is needed– Consider entire enterprise including unanticipated users

COIs expose Net-Centric barriers so they may be taken on as something to be changed

Conclusions• Widely recognized need for Net-Centric Operations• DoD Net-Centric Data and Services Strategies are

key enablers for Enterprise transformation– COIs facilitate DoD Transformation– COIs provide an opportunity to address Joint, inter-

agency, and coalition information sharing challenges• But challenges remain – we are pioneering Net-

Centric transformation and need your help to:– Implement the things we know how to do– Address the remaining challenges– Continue to innovate as technology changes and

needs evolve

Progress is being made but your help is needed to achieve effective military and government operations

COIs Support Portfolio Management

• QDR 2006 moved DoD toward the use of “joint capability portfolios” to change how the department does business

• DoD Deputy’s Advisory Working Group (DAWG)– A body of the Department’s senior civilian and military leaders co-

chaired by the Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (CJCS) and the Deputy Secretary of Defense (DSD)

– Established four pilot portfolios to evolve the Department’s business practices and methodologies

• COIs and COI pilots address information sharing problems and– Continuously refine the Department’s business processes– Inform acquisition programs to make them more effective

“The goal is better effectiveness and, through it, better efficiency – we have to do the right things, and we have to do them right. I can tell you that our work is still not finished. The DAWG is continuing to debate and refine our approach.” - Gordon England, DSD

SESGG Vision and Purpose• SESGG Vision

– Ensure that the DoD and IC Net-Centric Environment (NCE) evolves to an enterprise services-based architecture that improves the joint community’s ability to respond to evolving operations and mission through increased information sharing and agility.

• SESGG Purpose– To drive a DoD and IC implementation of a joint Net-Centric Services

and Data Strategy in support of mission requirements– Ensure that recommendations on data and enterprise services policies,

implementation guidance, standards, and processes align with interoperability and information sharing objectives and are made in the best interests of the joint Enterprise

– An advisory body to the• Director, Information Policy (IP), • Office of DoD Chief Information Officer (CIO), and the • Deputy Associate Director of National Intelligence for IC Enterprise

Architecture, Office ADNI Chief Information Officer (CIO).
