Automated Application Distribution Deployment

SOLUTE will mature the capability created during the last SBIR Phase II.5 to prepare it for successful transition into multiple PEO C4I Programs of Record. During the last Phase II.5 SBIR, SOLUTE modified the A2D2 prototype to be more scalable and transitioned it into an enterprise software capability that utilized trusted, scalable tools and infrastructure. SOLUTE worked with the GCCS-M Development Team to perform a proof of concept development and demonstration capability utilizing A2D2 to remotely deploy GCCS-M software in a lab environment. Testing in an actual operational environment will help validate the development assumptions and identify areas where additional development is required. To reduce risk and increase the likelihood of transition into PEO C4I PoRs, three primary objectives must be met: 1) remove legacy automation code from the GCCS-M v4.1.2.0 Software Baseline, 2) integrate A2D2 with GCCS-M v4.1.2.0 Software Baseline, and 3) harden capability using Cyber Security and Information Assurance Tools. This Phase II.5 effort will bring the core A2D2 functionality to a level of maturity suitable for transition into a Navy PoR. Therefore, SOLUTE will market and target transition across multiple PEO C4I PoRs and pursue a commercialization path for other areas of the Navy.
