DOD Architecture
Structure
Ausley Associates, Inc. (AAI) is committed
to the DoD's capabilities focused, effects-based business
model, and the guiding principle of viewing capital investments
from an enterprise perspective.
The DoD Enterprise Architecture is the overall
plan, and a living process for designing and implementing
Information Technology (IT) and National Security System (NSS)
solutions to serve our warfighters.
| The overarching objective of the Enterprise
Architecture is to promote interoperability and to reduce
the cost of providing IT and NSS capabilities across the
DoD. |
AAI has established a premier team to
support the DoD in defining and engineering future weapon
systems, and to assist Program Managers in positioning their
systems within the larger context of a Family of Systems.
| Thus achieving the interoperability focus
of the DoD's new business model. |
AAI supports Navy and Marine Corps organizations in
documenting and streamlining business processes, developing
information architectures, managing data assets, and integrating
today's legacy systems with tomorrow's warfighting capabilities
into one, Global Information Grid (GIG).
AAI supports the Battle Space Engineering (BSE)
team in an analytical capacity, our work in the Systems Engineering
and Architecture Analysis Environment (SEAAE) lab provides
an integrated and advanced engineering environment to conduct
the requisite complex analyses across the hardware, software
and human factor aspects of architecture development.
AAI is working with NAVAIR SEAAE to define the requirements
that will enable multi-disciplinary development teams to address
all architecture activities in a comprehensive and integrated
manner.
Our objective is to provide aviation program managers, and
their staffs, a "clearinghouse" for architecture
products to support the requisite acquisition documentation
and certifications (e.g., Information Support Plan, Initial
Capability Document, Capability Development Document, Capability
Production Document, Net-Ready Key Performance Parameters)
needed to achieve an Acquisition Decision.
Enterprise Architecture Team Clients:
Battlespace Systems Engineering (AIR-4.1)
- AAI assisted the Director, Battlespace Systems Engineering
(BSE) in establishing a naval aviation organization to function
as a change agent while the DoD transitions from a platform-centric
to an effects-based, capabilities-focused acquisition strategy.
AAI coordinates, facilitates and participates with
teams across the Sea Power 21 Pillars, SYSCOMs, PEOs, PMAs,
competencies, and the DoD services that convert joint and
naval operational mission needs into innovative, integrated,
interoperable, effective and sustainable naval air warfare
systems in the joint battlespace.
F/A-18 Hornet Strike Fighter (PMA-265)
- In an environment where systems are continually being developed,
deployed, migrated, and replaced, and concepts, doctrine and
threats keep changing, making allowances for unanticipated
interface requirements is essential.
AAI is working to ensure that the F/A-18 Program roadmap
is supported in the evolution of the Family of Interoperable
Pictures (i.e., the Single Integrated Air/Ground/Space and
Undersea Pictures) by participating in the development and
use of integrated architectures as the basis for assessment
and analysis to characterize interoperability needs.
Joint SIAP Systems Engineering Office (JSSEO)
- Eliminating false reporting of air tracks, providing extreme
targeting sensitivity and ensuring correct, unambiguous identification
of tracks are just a portion of the gauntlet "thrown down"
by OSD in assigning USJFCOM responsibility for the Single
Integrated Air Picture (SIAP).
AAI is working with JSSEO to define the DoD Architecture
Framework compliant views for identified system issues, and
creating use-case threads unique to the SIAP effort to interact
with these system issues in a behavioral model.
Air Combat Electronics (PMA-209) - AAI,
under the auspices of the Battlespace Engineering Office is
assisting PMA-209 in defining and architecting a set of capabilities
for the Joint Tactical Radio System (JTRS). The JTRS architecture
enables many legacy and newly developed radio waveforms to
use common system components (hardware and software) and coexist
in one box.
AAI is providing Program Management, Systems Engineering
and Logistic support to PMA-209, in coordination with PMW-780,
to ensure a successful development and seamless integration
strategy of the JTRS for the F/A-18 and EA-18G aircraft.
