to the Tactical Edge
The Army has changed the way it supplies network systems and capabilities to operational units by incrementally aligning the delivery of new technology with the Army Force Generation (ARFORGEN) process. This effort will drive networked capabilities down to the small unit and Soldier level — those at the tactical edge who need these critical capabilities the most.
To ensure network capabilities are fielded in an integrated and synchronized fashion while ensuring Army acquisition practices keep pace with emerging technology, the Army has developed a Network Strategy that fundamentally changes how it develops, acquires and fields capabilities. For the first time, the Army is delivering network systems not on an individual basis, but as an integrated communications package that spans the entire formation, connecting the home station, the fixed command post, the commander on-the-move and the individual Soldier.
