1. STATEMENT OF WORK – Army Leader Dashboard

1.1 Problem:

The Army lacks visibility into the vast amount of data, dispersed across the Army enterprise.

The Army requires a big data management solution and a tailorable solution that integrates, analyzes, and visualizes information from multiple disparate data sources, both classified and unclassified. The solution should present information in a way that is immediately understandable and actionable for an everyday end-user. The solution should be capable of integrating both current and historical structured/unstructured datasets, perform predictive analytics and forecasting. The product(s) shall be commercially available now.

1.2 Purpose:

This project will take advantage of Commercially Available software solution(s) to configure the prototype(s) as an Army Leader Dashboard (ALD) to allow user assessment of the initial capability for a decision-making, reporting and visualization capability. The dashboard shall enable Army Senior leaders and leaders at designated levels to easily navigate through information from multiple Army Authoritative Data Sources (ADS’s) in order to capture information to produce predictive analytics and facilitate real-time or near real-time decision making. This effort shall include an Agile Methodology for data integration and visualization responding to Senior Army Leader input. The solution shall have proven maturity to permit expansion of the user base and long term sustainment.

1.3 Scope:

The Solution must provide the ability to visualize the current and future state of the Army based on data generated by the thousands of systems that support the Army’s execution of its primary functions under Title 10 and Title 32, United States Code (USC) to organize, man, train, equip, and sustain forces. The solution must be able to collect, catalogue, manage, integrate, aggregate, analyze and visualize data from these disparate systems and other external data sources.

The solution must have the ability to scale data aggregation to thousands of current/legacy Authoritative Data Sources (ADS) and millions of data points (both structured and unstructured), and be able to secure data at the most granular level and authenticate by system and user.

Additionally the solution should account for and include all required integration to ensure the end-solution is deliverable. The integration should include but is not limited to data ingestion, management, analytics, cleansing and visualization and geospatial services. The visualization output should provide minimally-trained senior leaders an intuitive and configurable dashboard-style interface to visualize and present information in ways that are immediately understandable and actionable. Additionally, the solution shall demonstrate the ability to support real-time/near real-time senior leader decision making.

The solution must be capable of achieving Federal security compliance standards. The product shall be commercially available, demonstrable and take into consideration leveraging existing Army software investments to the greatest extent possible.

For the ALD prototype project, the term “commercially available” is a compilation of three definitions which can be found in file name App_001:

“Commercial component” means any component that is a commercial item.

“Commercial computer software” means any computer software that is a commercial item.

“Commercial item” means any item, other than real property, that is of a type customarily used by the general public or by non-governmental entities for purposes other than governmental purposes, and—

(1) Has been sold, leased, or licensed to the general public; or

(2) Has been offered for sale, lease, or license to the general public
