  21. Why NCOIC is Good for Business • Provides direct access to broad global customer base at thehighest level, and entrée to others through NCOIC relationships • Provides access to potential partners, suppliers and competitors for NCO business • Illustrates global thought leadership & consensus with international stakeholders on NCO/NEC • No compromise of national or alliance interests • Industry consensus on NCO standards beneath the application layer reduces cost, provides for more efficient design and effective partnering • Certification program will validate interoperability of systems within defined parameters “Like organizations that pioneered the Internet, NCOIC sponsors innovative thought, conducts critical analyses, and demonstrates how a net-centric environment can bring interoperability to a broad range of sectors. In this way, NCOIC helps member companies to find new markets, evaluate their unique needs and explore ways to drive interoperability into those markets.” Terry Morgan, Cisco.

  23. Key Messages • NCOIC participation provides your business leaders direct personal contact with the key global leadersof your customer base in an information sharing environmen • NCOIC is analyzing mission threads and requirements to identify the standards and patterns required for mission execution. Members create opportunities to drive these standards and obtain early implementation insights. • NCOIC is engaging key government and civilian customers in identifying standards. Members interact with customers in a non-procurement setting, shaping requirements. • NCOIC is providing an architectural framework which allows COTS standards to be used in NCO. This influence will guide how standards will be used in future operations. Those who understand and help guide this framework will be better equipped to consult on NCO utilization. • NCOIC assessment & analysis tools -- NCAT™ and SCOPE™ -- allow customers to make accurate decisions on how to employ NCO capabilities.

  24. Customer Comments • We are a global society and the next series of potential problems—civil wars, scarce water, food shortages, pandemics, cyber warfare—cannot be resolved by one nation. To avoid catastrophic outcomes our only chance is to cooperate. We have incredible motivation to work together and NCOIC is making significant contributions to the technological foundation that will help nations collaborate. • Brett Biddington, Cisco Systems’Global Government Solutions Group. • We have used NCAT™ to assess levels of interoperability during NATO Response Force exercises. The Centre of Excellence found the tool to be very helpful and useful in establishing the level of interoperability. • Dutch Navy Commander Fred van Ettinger, section head at the Multi National Command and Control Centre of Excellence • Like organizations that pioneered the Internet, NCOIC sponsors innovative thought, conducts critical analyses, and demonstrates how a net-centric environment can bring interoperability to a broad range of sectors. In this way, NCOIC helps member companies to find new markets, evaluate their unique needs and explore ways to drive interoperability into those markets. • Terry Morgan, Cisco • From NCOIC members and senior government advisors, we continue to learn how to improve the world we know today. And we are overwhelmed with opportunities to see the way network-centric operations can shape the future. • USAF Lt.Gen. (Ret.) Harry Raduege, Chairman of the Deloitte Center for Cyber Innovation. • People who operate in one market segment adopt a model about how the world works--that can lead to a mental rut. But NCOIC members come from many sectors and have opinions that don’t always agree with your own. Within the context of such a collaborative environment, diverse thinking can be a catalyst for innovation. • Hans Polzer, Senior Fellow, Lockheed Martin. • Achieving interoperability among systems is huge work and there are national political barriers. When NCOIC members work together as transnational companies these obstacles diminish—even though the companies can only discuss non-sensitive issues— but they can focus on real technical difficulties. NCOIC is then by far the best forum for ongoing conversations about interoperability. Outside this forum, when national customers have more influence, such collaboration would be much more difficult. • Dr. Claude Roche, EADS Defence & Security and NCOIC Executive Council member. 24
