SUBJECT:¬? CHECKMATE Army and Marine Corps Info Sharing and Reporting Initiative

1.¬? BACKGROUND: CHECKMATE originated as a collaborative effort of CAC-CDID?Äôs IED-D ICDT Battle Command lead and the BCBL(L), CIO/G-6-funded Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) pilot to prototype the development of simplified and structured data entry and management. A CHECKMATE presentation in Jan 09 to the JCOE (NTC) resulted in USMC co-sponsorship for a JIEDDO funding submission, which includes a 12 month product development, followed 6 months later by a USA BCT / USMC MEB training center assessment, and finally, an operational assessment in Afghanistan.¬?

¬?

2.¬? DESCRIPTION:¬? CHECKMATE?Äôs integrated C2 infrastructure potentially ties the tactical edge to C-IED national capabilities (e.g., COIC) through the Global Information Grid (GIG), and moves time-sensitive indications, warnings, and alerts to Soldiers and Marines. CHECKMATE will operate over existing low-bandwidth communications, will integrate into existing Army Battle Command systems, rifleman?Äôs radio, and other non-ABCS systems along with USMC C2 systems, and will create an extension of Battle Command info infrastructure down to the company level.

¬?

3.¬? OPERATIONAL BENEFITS: CHECKMATE intends to enable rapid C-IED targeting by accelerating the intelligence-operations dynamic. CHECKMATE?Äôs use of structured data for collection (every Soldier a sensor, every Marine a collector) will reduce decision cycle times by feeding IPB, analysis, planning, and targeting processes automatically. The linkage of relevant C-IED info (PMESII-PT/ASCOPE) automatically updates IPB, CCIRs, and IRs, eliminating manual matching, analysis, and data entry of SIGACTs. CHECKMATE can save lives by disseminating indications, warnings and alerts (e.g., IED hot spots and external SPOTREPs) to share data with supporting/supported and proximity units. CHECKMATE will help warfighters more rapidly target insurgent networks before they can emplace IEDs by exposing elements of the network, through automated info sharing and association, to recognize and capitalize on windows of opportunity to interdict the network.

¬?

4.¬? REQUIREMENTS:¬? Through the automated sharing and management of data, CHECKMATE will address the inability to integrate info to attack the network (IED-D ICDT capability gap); DCGS-A?Äôs need to integrate data (JUONS), and the lack of digital COP for dismounted elements (ONS).¬? The SOA capability resident and dynamic data in this prototyping effort makes it distinct from existing systems (TIGR, CDNE, etc.).¬?

¬?

5.¬? SOCIALIZATION:¬? In July, 2008, MG McCoy (then- IED-D ICDT Chair) endorsed to LTG Sorenson, Army CIO/G6, LTG Caldwell, CG CAC, and LTG Metz, Director, JIEDDO. Mr. Ormond, Deputy to CG CAC, requested assistance from MG Justice, PEO-C3T, in developing the transition plan (Apr 09). COL Moore (PM BC) will monitor CHECKMATE development for potential transition to a POR (Jul 09). The CAC-CDID team will present a CHECKMATE demonstration to LWN, BCAD, and AWD (Aug 09)."/>
