Sector Focus - Defence: What Fulcrum IT Strategy Means for Warfighters and the Future of Defence What can we learn from the US Department of Defence's new IT strategy. "The Department of Defense’s new Fulcrum IT Strategy marks a pivotal shift in modernising its technological approach, prioritising user experience and interoperability for enhanced warfighter support." “Success is defined by the user experience — ensuring that decisions are made with the warfighter in mind.” This strategy exemplifies a forward-thinking approach, focusing on agility and the strategic use of emerging technology. Broadly, the Fulcrum strategy is structured around four lines of effort that the document states represent “a strategic shift that embraces technology as a mission enabler.” They include: LOE 1: Provide Joint Warfighting IT capabilities to expand strategic dominance of U.S. Forces and mission partners. LOE 2: Modernise information networks and compute to rapidly meet mission and business needs. LOE 3: Optimise IT governance to gain efficiencies in capability delivery and enable cost savings. LOE 4: Cultivate a premier digital workforce ready to deploy emerging technology to the warfighter. 123.EXPERT’S TAKE: Clearly the Fulcrum strategy could easily provide a framework for any organisation. Sales and/or marketing are warfighters to some extent, in the battle for market dominance.

Monolithic architectures work well in some cases. But agility, flexibility, and speed are essential to compete. How do we embrace the best of both worlds? Let’s talk next week at the US Army Technical Exchange Meeting 12.

How can the United States Department of Defense and the US Army accelerate decision making? Simplify the user experience? Bring new life to legacy software systems? Let's connect THIS WEEK at the US Army Technical Exchange Meeting 12.

Delivering information to the decision-makers who need it -- from the DoD to the battlefield -- reliably, securely, and at the speed of relevance is crucial. Let's talk at TEM. At the upcoming US Army Technical Exchange Meeting (TEM) 12, “The network is the Army’s number one transformation priority.” That means getting information where and when it’s needed, in a simple and intuitive way for users. Kinetic Data’s Digital Experience Platform (DXP) separates the front-end user interface from complex back-end IT infrastructure, integrating with virtually any system or data source in place today—as well as what will be in place tomorrow. It enables process owners to rapidly develop built-for-purpose user-facing applications using a backend-as-a-service (#BaaS) approach while future-proofing the Army’s network of the future. This isn’t our first mission. Over the past decade, we’ve implemented solutions for the US Army JLTV, US Army EITaaS, US Army CHS, Army National Guard, the Defense Information Systems Agency, the Defense Innovation Unit (DIU), and more. Connect with us at the US Army’s TEM 12 event, May 28-30 at the Marriott City Center in Philadelphia, PA.

Military groups from across the nation continue to leverage NSIN Bootcamp to learn innovative methods for problem-solving and to put those methods into action to deliver organizational change. Hanscom Air Force Base (Mass.) recently leveraged Bootcamp to decide how they might use technology forecasting to make more informed decisions. Four teams comprised of individuals from across the organization pitched solutions including adopting automation to increase capacity, developing a virtual assistant to act as a force multiplier, leveraging homomorphic encryption for secure calculations, and implementing a “checkmate” acquisition method to ensure emerging technologies and active threats are proactively considered.

Lt. Gen. Paul Stanton recently spoke about the importance of the Defense Information Systems Agency’s industry partners developing adaptive and capable solutions that support the DODIN and enable efficient decision making, stating that “Making a better and faster decision than our enemies is central to how we execute.”  AT&T Public Sector can support the United States Department of Defense with advanced network solutions, AI capabilities, and seamless connectivity, enhancing operational efficiency and decision-making. Our secure, high-speed global network, flexible on-demand services, and AI-driven threat detection ensure timely information delivery and reliable communications for mission success. As the technology landscape evolves, it’s critical for #DOD leaders to instill a mindset of continuous modernization to support our nation’s warfighters. At AT&T, we’re always innovating and thinking ahead to support our nation’s military with innovative, reliable and secure #connectivity solutions that advance our warfighters and achieve mission success. I look forward to collaborating with Lt. Gen. Paul Stanton as he looks to leverage private sector partners to provide robust, resilient, and affordable commercial solutions to meet the mission. https://lnkd.in/eVDvAAse
