More on the DoD to Amazon.com Analogy

DoD partnering on a global scale could lead to more effective mission and business operations

• Low cost of entry (Services are free or very low cost)• No special access permissions needed

• Amazon drove data standards (COI of 1)• Usage directly translates to financial rewards for Amazon

and its affiliates

We are Net-Centric Pioneers• Together we are pioneering agile information

sharing in the DoD & Intelligence Community• Some of it we know how to do

– Model after successes on the World Wide Web– Use open standards

• Some of it is HARD– Cultural change– DoD and IC specific needs– Streamline capability delivery for responsive operations

• We’ve had some successes– DoD & IC Net-Centric Strategies– Net-Centric Core Enterprise Services – Increasing Partnerships (e.g., DoD & IC)

CIO Resources• DoD Net-Centric Data Strategy (NCDS)

– Outlines the vision for managing data in a net-centric environment by ensuring that it is visible, accessible, and understandable

• DoD Net-Centric Services Strategy (NCSS)– Builds upon the NCDS goals and establishes services as the preferred

means of sharing data and information.

• DoD Instruction 8320.02, Sharing Data, Information, and Information Technology (IT) Services in the DoD– Establishes policies, assigns responsibilities, and prescribes procedures

for securely sharing electronic data, information, and IT services and securely enabling the discovery of shared data throughout the DoD, in accordance with DoD Directive 8000.01, DoD Net-Centric Data Strategy and DoD Net-Centric Services Strategy.

– Facilitates the shift from the transport medium to a focus on content and guides the use of resources to implement the secure sharing of data, information, and IT services within the DoD Information Enterprise (IE) and with mission partners.
