8 until a few years ago …
• the Services were individually in charge of the development, procurement and operation
of IT-Systems;
• there was hardly any coordination of concepts and approaches for developing joint
solutions for the Services;
• there were different concepts regarding the possibilities and the use of the systems;
limited interoperability, media discontinuities;
low data transmission rates, limited network capability;
old systems, insularities, great variety of systems and products;
long analysis and development phases, project cancellations;

"… for the purpose of supporting the user command and
work processes, the numerous systems of the Armed
Services must be combined in ONE single system that is
implemented rapidly and that is affordable, structurally
independent, deployable and capable of multinational
network-enabled operations …" Speech by the President of the Federal IT-
Office to the Symposium "Through System
Integration to Network-Enabled Operations" at
the 25 AFCEA Information and Communication
Technology Exhibition in the Bonn-Bad
Godesberg townhall on 04 May 2011.

16 Operational doctrine and (user-) findings
„Work, train and organize as you will fight!“ Defined users will be provided with the same equipment (hardware, software, data) during
routine operation, training and operations, thereby granting access to the operational
information space.
„Service-oriented structures … … that can be integrated into a multinational IT infrastructure while offering capabilities
to partners and using their functionalities
„Responsibility to share“ balanced with the security principle of
„Need to Know!“ There is the operational requirement of a cross-coalition, common and secure
information space on the basis of a service-oriented architecture.
German Armed Forces Liaison Officer
U.S. Army Signal Center of Excellence
17 (Lessons Identified) AMN and FMN (JIE)
„…Soldiers in operational theatres do not care about how the network is
designed or how governance is executed…they do require access to a
common operational picture, command and control data, e-mail, web
browsing, chat, video-conferencing, and directory lookup as basic core
services that need to be available in any modern Alliance or Coalition
operation…“
Lessons Identified AMN, 2012/02/25
„…A Future Mission Network (FMN) that applies our years of experience in
developing the AMN would be light, modern, inexpensive, capable of
protected transport and most importantly, enable the technical connection
of any nation taking part in NATO operations.“
LTG Herrmann, Dir NCSA, 2012/07/08
“I believe that this Network will be the backbone of all future NATO led
missions and fundamentally improve … Coalition Command Control,
Communication, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance
services. In addition to developing the AMN, the AMN Secretariat is
working to identify and exploit those lessons identified in order to define
the requirements for the future "NATO Coalition Mission Network".

• Most extensive reorganization ever and
triggered by budget and operational reality
• Common, joint taskfulfillment
• Centralization of responsibilities
• Reduction of interfaces at each level
• Strong, independent position of IT-Dir/ CIO

38 Conclusion
4. U.S. Army (Signal) has a technological advance … German Signals are truly joined.
However, we share much in common.
1. Balancing act to cope with fiscal constraints and the demands of the cutting edge of
modern information technology.
5. Perhaps the Geman FMoD IT-Strategy could provide some ideas ...
... common architectural approach, requirements, service design?
2. Further budget cuts could well be ... leads to sharing and/ or pooling of capabilities(?).
3. NATO‘s Future Mission Network as a „blueprint“ and valuable field of cooperation.
