WBB offers quick and responsive solutions to your enterprise interoperability challenges. Whether your organization requires structured architectural solutions or interoperability issue resolution within a collaborative group setting, WBB’s consultants bring their proven and in depth expertise to assist in interoperability and information system challenges. WBB consultants are highly experienced in DoD and Federal interoperability requirements and acquisition processes and have assisted numerous programs through the complex Defense Capabilities and Acquisition system.

Enterprise architecture often becomes necessary in today's Net-Centric world. WBB government and commercial customers often find themselves in need of defining the Information and Interoperability requirements for acquisition systems and system-of-systems. We have extensive experience in the application of Federal, DoD, commercial and international architectures to acquisition processes (Federal Enterprise Architecture (FEA), the JCIDS process, and the Business Enterprise Architecture (BEA)). WBB is an experienced and successful architecture developer for commercial and government customers. WBB architects have an in-depth understanding of the field of enterprise architecture (EA) in order to assist our clients in developing tailored architectures to meet internal needs and regulatory requirements.

The Defense Capabilities and Acquisition process has defined a number of information related documents to describe the Interoperability support requirements and issues associated with the fielding of the system. These include the Net Ready Key Performance Parameter (NR KPP) and enclosed DoDAF Integrated Architecture set as well as the associated Information Support Plan (ISP). These required products and services are typically single instance products, requiring the program office to devote large amounts of time and resources to develop these required documents. WBB's skilled consultants save both time and funding in the development of these documents. The documents are normally tied to the associated JCIDS products, requiring synchronization of the information and interoperability elements among the various JCIDS and Acquisition documents.

WBB customers frequently need to relate their program or system to the Business Enterprise Architecture (BEA), DoD's enterprise architecture for business information infrastructure, which includes processes, data standards, business rules, operating requirements, information exchanges, and depiction of policies and procedures.

Interoperability expertise extends from dedicated support and assistance of program offices with the Information Support Plan and Net Ready Key Performance Parameter to development of Information Assurance strategies and documentation and other IA documentation required by DIACAP. WBB has the technical and engineering expertise to discover and define issues and work solutions to the Interoperability challenges that face the program.

WBB has an extremely high success rate for developing and obtaining certification of the interoperability documents and architectures necessary for program advancement. WBB consultants possess the background, expertise, and currency to address these needs. Our extensive understanding of the requirements and the organizations involved in staffing and approval of the documents ensures the quickest turnaround and approval of this documentation. WBB's process for development of these documents incorporates leadership and facilitation of focused working groups, bringing in the technical expertise required to work issues through to completion. WBB's association with claimant organizations ensures that the products developed are reviewed favorably and the end product is a successful Interoperability and Supportability Certification.
