The Agile Planner: Configurable C2 on the Move

Current Army C2 systems cannot integrate “come as you are” capabilities into operations making it difficult to combine participants into a cohesive force. This paper describes the Agile Planner concept developed by BAEAIT as robust approach for configurable C2 “on the fly”. With an Agile Planner, participants declare their capabilities when they register into the system. Once they do so, an Agile Planner can assemble a system architecture from these declared capabilities and determine how to employ the participants to accomplish a mission. The Agile Planner concept is illustrated with a case study showing its ability to robustly build Missile Defense from “come as you are” assets.
