New Handbook explains "Network Enabled Capability"
See here.

What a load of bollox!! Rant switch to safe...
|
Yeah that's what I thought. Management gooblededook, which tries of give an excuse for cuts.
|
I was taught that Service Writing should be concise and brief. Thus:
Go to work. Achieve the task. Kill as many of the bad guys as possible using weapons effectively. Look after the good guys. BZ Why are we subjected to all this pseudo-corporate-babble-crap-speak. I'm so pissed off at being over-arched, underpinned and outside the box. Concur: utter bollox. |
Am full of sympathy for the poor staff who made up those 24 pages of drivel.
|
Consonant please Carol. And another. And a vowel. And a consonant...and finally another vowel.
SHETI hmmmm |
The problem here, apart from all the Staff Bo!!ox, is the word 'Enabled'. As far as I understand it, it means that: 'you could have it have it when you need it, but not yet'. That means you wont be able to train with it, so you wont trust it, so you wont be able to use it properly - so it wont bl00dy work properly.
You need it long before you NEED it, so to speak. |
Breath deeply!! count back from 10
10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, COMPLETE BO**OCKS!!!! |
It lost me as soon as I read that "We must ensure that we stay ahead of the curve.." :yuk: WTF does that mean?
And which numpty decided to adopt the acronym 'CND' for Computer Network Defence? Weren't they that gang of duffle-coated weird beards and dodgy vicars in sandals wandering about Berkshire in the 1960s? Thank heavens I don't have to bother with such turgid bolleaux any more! |
Perhaps we need a Roadmap to find the Integrated Maingate Project conceptual Breakout thingy?

When asked how he explained how black boxes work to aircrew, a sage old engineer replied, "I just tell them it takes wiggly amps in and puts wiggly amps out. Everything in between works using FM or WMM".

Luddites?
Three-decker shipss? They'll defeat the turrent
Rifled barrels? Never work. Telegraph? No, too much information. Cavalry, that's the way ahead. Moncoque construction? No, stay with wood and fabric! Submarines? Damn'd un British! Effects Based Operations (the sharp end of NEC) is the way ahead to provide the timely and accurate delivery of State violence. Do you think that other organisations would eschew technology - especially information sharing? CC |
Read it and think it should be called Working And Network Knowledge
:8 |
try implementing it for real - security regulations based on office buildings and software based upon Windows (what safety case)

Translating it into Jive makes it much more understandable ...
Many sucka's in Defence and da damn Armed Fo'ces gots'ta heard da damn term "Netwo'k Enabled Capability" (NEC) - but do we all dig it whut it means? De NEC Handscribblin', published on 2 February 2005, aims t'make sho' nuff dat everyone gots'ta some common dig itin' uh whut NEC is, whut it means, and where it be goin'. Aldough some complex and far-reachin' concept, NEC be essentially about enablin' sucka's wid de help uh robust processes, developin' technology and resilient netwo'ks t'betta' 'sploit info'mashun, resultin' in mo'e timely decisions, mo'e agile acshuns and mo'e precise effects. NEC is, dig dis: about da damn coherent integrashun uh senso's, decision-makers, weapon systems and sdownpo't capabilities t'betta' deliva' military effect; about gaderin', managin', sharin' and 'esploitin' info'mashun better, bod widin Defence and da damn Armed Fo'ces and across Government and wid our coalishun partners; crucial t'de future conduct uh military opuh'shuns, wid implicashuns fo' and applicashuns in mos' every area uh Defence activity; and, a co'nerstone uh de transfo'mashun which defence be undergoin' t'meet da damn security challenges uh de 21st Century. Slap mah fro! As Vice Chief uh de Defence Staff (VCDS) and 2nd Permanent Unda' Secretary fo' Defence (2nd PUS) say in deir fo'ewo'd t'De NEC Handscribblin': "NEC be not some pipe dream. 'S coo', bro. It be shapin' our current and future fo'ce structures and requirements... and it needs t'be implemented, coo'dinated and sdownpo'ted across all aspects uh Defence activity if it be to realise its full potential." De NEC Handscribblin' 'esplains whut Netwo'k Enabled Capability be all about and how it gots'ta develop ova' de next two decades. It be aimed at MOD and Armed Fo'ces sucka'nel, as sheeit as de Defence Industry and sucka's in oda' Government Departments. De scribblin'let also seeks t'stimulate active and constructive dought, discussion and engagement t'help roll and stea' de development uh NEC. Electronic copies uh de handscribblin' are available on bod de MOD Website. What it is, Mama! |
Engineer(retard),
We´re working on it at a bit higher level than that. e.g. NITEworks JETTS Acquisition for Network Enabled Capability |
Certainly makes more sense in Jive but I note that even the world's most powerful translation computers cannot deal with tripe like "robust processes" and "resilient networks".
|
As a retired RAAF CAS once put it; 'NEC is simply an up-to- date tool of the ongoing Command & Control process; the plethora of yuckspeak used to describe it is tiresome'
|
NEC in Action - 3 Commando Brigade during Operation TELIC In their Post Operation TELIC Report, 3 Commando Brigade stressed the importance of being able to fuse the information from a number of sensors in order to achieve an effect and that no one sensor or system proved decisive. On one occasion when 42 Commando came under fire from a battery of Type 59-1 130 mm towed guns, the firing point was located by the Weapon Locating Radar ARTHUR. This information was passed to a RN Sea King Mark 7 Airborne Early Warning helicopter equipped with Searchwater Radar, which was able to track the gun battery’s hasty withdrawal from its firing position. This information was then passed to an Army Phoenix Ground Control Station, which re-tasked an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). This located the gun battery and tracked it to a fall back position near Al Basrah. Using the target data gathered by the UAV, coalition aircraft were able to attack the gun battery, whose destruction was confirmed afterwards by the UAV. |
JTD - hear hear!
To translate - We were shot at, but survived. We used our kit to find out who had shot at us, then we shot the crap out of them. They didn't survive. ;) |
