This work requires an in-depth understanding and execution of an accepted

industry standard Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI) for the entire

development and progress monitoring using reporting procedures and

measures of performance in accordance with best practices indicated by the

selected CMMI. The work will also require an understanding of the evolving

Technology (IT) architectures, and publish-and-subscribe IT infrastructures.

other

contractors supporting the IC2IE Division to ensure seamless operations from

system development through fielding, support and restoration.

for various operational communities employing imagery, intelligence,

operational planning, and system/network security capabilities in direct and

indirect support of combat and training operations. Variants of these systems

are installed in Navy, Joint, and National Command Centers worldwide.
