Alion Science and Technology will move systems U.S. Air Force personnel use to manage emergency responses into a service-oriented architecture, the company said Wednesday.
Base commanders, emergency managers and first responders use the Installation Command and Control system to make decisions regarding incidents.
Alion will move IC2’s integrated information management system into an SOA environment by designing, developing, coding, demonstrating, testing and documenting software.
“By migrating IIMS to a SOA, we can make the incident management and IC2 systems more agile, to facilitate the Air Force's command and control common operational framework,“ said Chris Amos, senior vice president and manager of Alion's technology solutions group.
The company intends for the IC2 system’s new code to support the Defense Threat Reduction Agency's global strike concept of operations by adding sensor management, communications management and sensor fusion.
