CommIT hosted a senior level meeting for the Office of Secretary of Defense (OSD) Acquisition, Technology and Logistics (AT&L), Networks and Information Integration (NII), Program Acquisition and Execution (PA&E), and the Joint Staff (JS).  The subject discussed through this meeting encompassed Enterprise Management and the interdependent value of Portfolio Management, Resource Management, Communities of Interest (COI), and Net-Centric Data Strategy has across the DOD Enterprise. 

As noted during the discussion, these topics are of high priority in many venues – especially the Department of Defense. During the past 8 years great strides have been made to “unify” and promulgate the Joint vision and fundamentally change the way the Department operates for the betterment of the Warfighter and National Security. The traditional institutional thinking is to solve big problems by spending big dollars. The underlying methodology, briefed by CommIT, can link disparate domains – with no “apparent” cultural change to the user (but will provide richer cross domain content viewpoints for the analyst and the Executive) and will enable those dollars to be expended more efficiently with the added assurance and fidelity of a superior decision making environment. CommIT’s approach is a Transformational enabler which at the end of the day helps ensure that the Warfighter has the needed capabilities to carry out the Mission.

CommIT has been maturing this advanced analytical capability supporting The Space and Naval Research Systems Center - Charleston (SSC-C) for several years. 

Subsequent joint workshops will be used to identify appropriate points for this methodology to be implemented to foster and enable the alignment enterprise needs of the DOD.
