Consolidated Afloat Networks and Enterprise Services (CANES) Full Deployment (FD) Production

CANES is the Navy's Program of Record (POR) that consolidates and replaces existing afloat networks providing the necessary infrastructure for applications, systems and services required to dominate the cyber warfare tactical domain. CANES represents a key aspect of the Navy's modernization planning by upgrading cybersecurity, command and control, communications and intelligence systems afloat, and by replacing unaffordable and obsolete networks. The primary goals of the CANES program are to: 1) Provide
a secure afloat network required for Naval and Joint Operations; 2) Consolidate and reduce the number of afloat networks through the use of Common Computing Environment and mature cross domain technologies; 3) Reduce the infrastructure footprint and associated Logistics, Sustainment, and Training costs; and 4) Increase reliability, security, interoperability and application hosting to meet current and projected Warfighter requirements.
This vehicle includes 1) CANES Production Units for afloat unit, force, and submarine platforms, 2) Software Initial, 3) Software - Renewals and Maintenance, 4) Spares and System Components, and 5) Lab Equipment.
