More than a decade ago, the U.S. Navy’s submarine force was facing budget cuts that had the potential to bring submarine construction to a standstill. With the assistance of industry, the Navy began an effort known as the Acoustic Rapid COTS (commercial off the shelf) Insertion (ARCI) program that lowered the cost of building submarines and helped quicken the pace of technology refresh.
The Navy is now hoping to fend off a similar situation with its surface combatants, everything from destroyers and cruisers to large amphibious ships, by tackling open architecture before facing the threat of deep budget cuts. At the same time, service officials recognize there is also a need to create an open business model to increase competition.
This timely webinar will cover the following:
- Opportunities for medium and small size companies to take advantage of open architecture.
- What will the new competition mean to the Navy and the defense industry?
- Open Architecture vs Open Business?
- What are the operational, funding and cultural issues of OA?
- And much more.
