The air force is shifting its networks from Major Command-centred islands to secure, unified, consolidated enterprise-centric networks to form a part of the air force’s portion of the Global Information Grid.
The system support will help USAF in meeting its goals by upgrading and establishing the communications infrastructure for a centralised Command and Control capability and core IT services.
The work will begin in August 2009.
