8 Operational Benefits Operational effectiveness gains: Increase the availability of IT services Enhance the Business Continuity (BC) Enhance Disaster Recovery (DR) posture Enhance the Information Security posture Increase operational agility & flexibility Universal access to services and data Increase mobility and flexible working Metered usage - transparency of costs Standardisation Levels of performance Training Efficiency gains: Reduce the manpower required to provide & maintain services Better sustainability Reduce life-cycle costs 8

11 Implementation Depends on Three Pillars PEOPLE PROCESS TECHNOLOGY Operational Users ICT is a people intensive business. Finding, attracting, developing and growing the right talent pool within an effective organizational structure is key Effective organizations implement and refine business process to ensure repeatable operational behaviors. The development, documentation, training and implementation of effective processes is a key step in maturing the organization NCI Agency Technology continually offers new opportunities NCI to improve the quality of service and support we deliver to our clients. It is our responsibility Agency as the innovator to bring new technology to improve service to NATO 87% Savings 13% Savings 11

15 As-Is (Conceptual) Site data centres/server rooms Client Device Consumer Network servers of over 100 different types, and becoming obsolete Data Centre/Server Room Client Device Site 2 Multiple operating systems and multiple versions of each Application/project specific resources WAN Data Centre/Server Room Site N Data Centre/Server Room Consumer Network server utilization rates between 9% and 30 % Locally managed Three supported domains Consumer Network NU Client Device NR NS 15

16 To-Be (Conceptual) Standardised resources Data Centres Local Computing Facilities Access Gateways Consumer Networks Client Devices Resource pooling Centrally managed Two supported domains NU/NR NS 16

17 Supported domains IT modernisation will make provisions for two networks on different security levels as indicated below Protected Business Network Up to NR In support of majority of administrative business processes; appropriate operational processes; and processes requiring interaction over the Internet. NATO Secret Operational Network Up to NS In support of war fighting processes; processes requiring higher level assurance; and military and political communications. 17

18 Transition from NATO Secret ON to the Protected Business Network (PBN) Shift of applications from the NATO Secret Network to the PBN. 3 scenarios Application remain on NS Application moves to PBN Application on both networks (different instances) Contractor will be required to migrate both the application and the data (data will be identified by the purchaser). 18

19 Design Design Objectives Follows a services based approach Traceable requirements implementation Agency provides requirements, constraints Contractor proves through the design: how the ITM services are implemented and how the Purchaser requirements (section 14, SRS) are met In a top-down way (architecture design to detailed implementation design level) Support for ITM project life-cycle 19

20 Design - Service Based Approach 4 Service Design Packages: Enterprise SMC IaaS Client Provisioning Core Enterprise Services (i.e. Exchange/Sharepoint) Service Design Package addresses: Technical (related to section 14 requirements) Process and Organisation (related to section 10 requirements) 20

21 Enterprise SMC Design Service Based Approach Core Enterprise Services Client Provisioning Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) 21

22 IaaS Centralization/Consolidation Exchange Centralization A48.F5 D5/Viborg D6/Stavanger Consolidate D7/Glons D4/Uedem NATO HQ D1/NORTHWOOD C1 D2 Brunssum Other applicable Applications: D15/Norfolk Mons C2 Core C3 D3/Ramstein - Sharepoint, etc. - Others should be developed with this in mind D12/Lyon D10/Oeiras C4 Lago Patria High Availability Exchange Service D13/Athens D16/Izmir D8/Poggio Renatico D9/Retamares A34.F14-vrn 22

25 Security Aspects The implementation will require security accreditation at enterprise and local site level. Security Accreditation efforts are lead by the purchaser supported by the contractor. Security measures are based on the purchaser s risk assessment Security products need to on the approved Product list ( 25

26 Service Management Concept of Service Operations Centres Initial Service Operations centre in SHAPE (current NCI Agency Service Delivery main location) Alternate location JFC Brunssum as it already hosts Service the Alternate NCC and NCIRC Desk Provision of the Service management tools for the IaaS capability Framework for integration Control Centre with communications and (IT Operations) Core and FAS management elements Includes enterprise Service Desk Technical Management 26 Contractor Support

27 Proposed Service provisioning model is NATO Owned NATO Operated (NONO) with the exception of outsourced print and scan services (COCO) However the contractor will have life-cycle support responsibility for the O&M elements (by site for 5 years): 4 th level support (HW/SW) Service Charges Sustainment training Contractor support for Life-Cycle Management 27

28 Life-Cycle Management Based on Total Cost of Ownership (Living document updated during the life-cycle) Breaks down into Cost of Procurement Cost of Implementation Cost of Support Cost of Operation (Manpower) Ceiling of 465 FTE s Contractor NCI Agency 28

43 CONCLUSIONS 43

44 ITM Prime Contractor We are looking for a Strong Partner to implement ITM Someone who has implemented similar Projects before Similar scale, scope, multiple international sites For International, Defence, Government, and/or commercial organisations with similar complexities Implementation experience needed in both: Corporation (Prime Contractor, & suppliers), and Key individuals (Project Mgr, Tech Lead, Test Dir, Migration Mgr) Strong Service Management & Control experience to provide: An integrated system that can provide metering and reporting linked to agreed SLAs/OLAs Implementation of ITIL processes 44

45 4 Major Challenges to Industry Strike right balance between CAPEX and OPEX This is a spend to save activity Most of our OPEX costs are manpower related Abstract, pool and automate Create a single pane of glass Hide underlying complexity Provide flexibility and efficient management Migrate the application space Virtualise Migrate Centralise Work with imperfect information 45
