FROM LEADERSHIP “...CAN THE SYSTEMS WE DEVELOP BE COMMONLY USED ACROSS ALL PLATFORMS? CAN THE COMMAND AND CONTROL SYSTEM USED IN ONE PLACE BE USED IN ANOTHER? ARE THE SYSTEMS WE DEVELOP INTEROPERABLE?” ADMIRAL GARY ROUGHEAD, FORMER CHIEF OF NAVAL OPERATIONS Global Mission vs Budget

Current Acquisition System 3 Warfighter’s Requirement Resources Provider Operational Test System vs SoS
4
A SoS Approach Is Possible The Right Investments Are Critical SoS System Engineering is Essential 4
5
But That’s Challenging 5

Pg 1 of 1200 Standards: complex and open to interpretation Different programs, contractors, and services creating stovepipes (minimum overlap) Independent Implementations x Coordinated Implementation Government Defined Implementation Coordinated Implementations 6

Challenges Paradigm shift from system to System of system Acquisition Process System Engineering More dollars associated with one program/capability Management complexity Development complexity Test complexity Etc etc But… better product at the end!!! 10
