Logistics Advancement Through Open Architecture Application - Flipbook - Page 2
Document overview
This document presents the Precise Systems perspective of the future of Open Architecture (OA). Our experts have been at the
forefront of OA development for over ten years, including key OA initiatives of the USA, USA/International partner agreements,
NATO and of the United Kingdom.
It is our perspective that the application of OA in the development of all military systems should primarily have a focus on mission
requirements and military capability.
In order to maintain operational momentum and execute mission objectives swiftly, it is essential that all assets of the force are
in the correct location and have the resources that they need. There is signi昀椀cant risk to both the War昀椀ghter and overall mission
success if objectives cannot be met or enemy activity cannot be mitigated effectively. Many of the Precise Systems team are retired
War昀椀ghters and understand the harsh reality behind seemingly banal terms such as ‘operational risk’ and ‘attrition’. Through our
Advanced Engineering Core Capability, Precise Systems aims to support our War昀椀ghters in providing a real advantage against a
peer-on-peer adversary.
In this paper we introduce OA, and present how it can be applied to deliver enhanced logistics capability. To avoid any classi昀椀cation
issues or program speci昀椀cities we do not aim to provide solutions in this paper, but rather explain at a high level how the application
of OA to logistical aspects directly correlates to mission success by delivering the highest capability to our War昀椀ghters
