SAIC Solutions for Department of Defense Joint All-Domain Command and Control (JADC2) Joint all domain command and control, JADC2, Department of Defense, DOD, C2, warfighting, sensors, battlespace management, advanced battle management system, ABMS, C2 modernization, kill chains, multi domain command and control, joint all domain operation

Joint All-Domain Command & Control, or JADC2, is the Department of Defense (DoD) effort to produce a singular command and control (C2) network that links all sensors and actors in the U.S. Army, Navy, Air Force and Marine Corps and across all warfighting domains during a conflict

Joint All-Domain Command & Control, or JADC2, is the Department of Defense (DoD) effort to produce a singular command and control (C2) network capable of linking all U.S. sensors to all U.S. military fires, across all domains, in any conflict region. JADC2’s unifying connection of platforms, systems, and weapons from all the armed services branches will allow commanders to receive and send distributed inputs and decisions, respectively, creating rapid and most advantageous kill chains. JADC2 will drive command-and-control modernization as well as domain integration for the DoD in an ever-changing threat environment with near-peer adversaries and novel threats. With the JADC2 architecture integrating C2 data and knowledge across multiple warfighting domains, the DoD will accomplish joint all-domain operations with ubiquitous access to data, AI-assisted data transport and decision-making, and compatible, flexible, and resilient communications pathways, among many more capabilities. SAIC is working closely with the DoD to move current, service-unique, and multi-domain C2 plans to the future JADC2 state without interrupting operations. We are a leading technology integrator with extensive partnerships with commercial solutions providers and experience in adaptive military solutions, unattached to any Original Equipment Manufacturer or proprietary software and hardware. This and the diversity of our talent and mission expertise in the areas of Digital Engineering, Model-Based Systems Engineering, System Engineering & Integration, Cyber, Advanced Analytics, and Digital Transformation make SAIC uniquely objective and qualified to realize DoD’s vision of weaving together the many technologies and capabilities to make JADC2 a reality.

Director, Command and Control (C2)/ Advanced Battle Management System (ABMS)

Jon “BigDogg” Rhone has been one of the USAF's go-to Battle Management Command and Control (BMC2) SMEs for two decades. He led and commanded battle management and C2 communities for 24 years, to include Group and Squadron command. He was instrumental in developing the initial USAF Multi-Domain Command and Control (MDC2) concepts and his combat experiences, expertise, and MDC2 vision are force multipliers. He is well-known and respected for his contributions to the advancement of MDC2 concepts and capabilities throughout the United States Air Force and Defense Industrial Base.

Advanced Analytics

Predictive analytics sits at the core of JADC2 in order to deliver relevant information to decision-makers quickly. Managing incoming data from massive and complex sensor networks will require adaptive artificial intelligence and machine learning.

Cyber

With cyberspace as one of the JADC2 domains, operators will need to protect their own data while simultaneously seeking to overwhelm adversaries’ resources.

Digital Engineering

Digital engineering is our set of execution services and digital ecosystem of connected design and analytic tools for complex systems engineering. The backbone for effective mission engineering thread analyses, SAIC digital engineering gives DoD customers time and effectiveness advantages in tying together the right connections of platforms, sensors, weapons, and systems for their multidimensional problem sets. Our data-first strategy, employing digital twins and fluidly integrating the data they produce with actual operational data, tells customers about gaps that need addressing and supports all platform life-cycle activities within the JADC2 environments.

Edge Services

Connectivity and computing at the tactical edge will be vital in JADC2. SAIC’s investments in digital twins, Internet of Battlespace Things (IoBT), mesh computing, 5G, and other edge technologies give every asset in the battlespace the best possible information, resulting in timely warfighting decisions and greatest effectiveness.

Model-Based Systems Engineering

As our customers model evolving networks, they will need to determine what shooters and assets are within a network at any given time. Data is key. Model-based systems engineering helps examine all those nodes and figure out what weapon is the right effect to control to the right target and what sensors to use.

Systems Engineering and Integration

JADC2 requires communications between many systems and platforms, many of which don’t exist yet, and focuses on connectivity more than on hardware and software. JADC2 is going to connect more sensors and more systems, and enable the connection of new and yet-to-be invented sensors. Our engineering prowess and experience working with complex systems of systems will make things talk to other elements across domains and commands. We have been advocating for the use of ontologies and semantic technologies to bridge multiple disciplines and domain environments, which also allows the use of intelligent machine systems to help with the engineering. We have made investments in developing a systems engineering ontology that will be the foundation of our solution.
