Sense • Make Sense • Act

CNDEZ builds data fabrics, AI pipelines, and secure C2 integrations that support the JADC2 vision across joint and combined forces.

  • Cross-domain sensor & data integration
  • AI/ML for indications & warnings
  • Decision support for commanders & staffs

Operationalizing the JADC2 Vision

JADC2 is the DoD concept for connecting sensors, shooters, and command nodes across air, land, maritime, cyber, and space into an integrated network that delivers information advantage at the speed of relevance. CNDEZ Federal Focus helps programs and mission owners translate JADC2 guidance into practical, modular solutions that work with today’s systems while enabling tomorrow’s capabilities.

CNDEZ JADC2-Enabling Capabilities

A portfolio of capabilities that support JADC2 and CJADC2 objectives—from data fabric and transport resiliency, to AI-driven decision support and mission applications at the edge.

Joint Data Fabric & Integration

Connect heterogeneous sensors, systems, and enclaves into a governed data fabric that enables “any sensor to any shooter to any C2 node.”

  • Multi-domain data ingestion (batch & streaming)
  • Metadata, lineage, and policy-aware access controls
  • Cross-security-domain integration patterns

Resilient Transport & Networks

Architect resilient, contested-environment networks that maintain core JADC2 functions under degraded conditions.

  • Hybrid SATCOM, terrestrial, and tactical links
  • Network-aware routing and prioritization
  • Zero-trust principles applied to C2 transport

AI/ML for Sense & Make-Sense

Apply machine learning and analytics to detect patterns, anomalies, and opportunities across massive multi-domain data streams.

  • Indications & warnings and anomaly detection
  • Course-of-action (COA) analytics & wargaming
  • Model governance, testing, and drift monitoring

Commander Decision Support

Deliver role-tailored views for Joint and Combined commanders, staffs, and components that support rapid, explainable decisions.

  • Operational pictures & mission-tailored dashboards
  • Playbooks linked to COAs and authorities
  • What-if analysis and risk visualization

Edge & Deployed JADC2 Nodes

Bring JADC2 capabilities forward to the tactical edge with deployable, bandwidth-aware solutions.

  • Edge processing for low-bandwidth environments
  • Sync and replay patterns for disconnected ops
  • Interoperability with coalition and partner systems

Interoperability & Governance

Ensure JADC2 implementations remain interoperable, standards-aligned, and governed across Services, COCOMs, and partners.

  • Standards mapping across Service initiatives
  • API, data, and message-format governance
  • Configuration management and test harnesses

Reference JADC2 Architecture Patterns

CNDEZ Federal Focus provides reference architectures and implementation patterns that align with JADC2 and CJADC2 guidance while remaining adaptable to specific missions, networks, and classification levels.

Multi-Tier C2 & Data Fabric

Tiered architecture spanning tactical, operational, and strategic echelons, with a data fabric that abstracts underlying transport and compute.

  • Common data and message model across tiers
  • Local processing with global synchronization
  • Policy-driven data exposure and sharing

Sensor-to-Shooter Kill-Web Patterns

Patterns for rapid, automated linkage between sensors, C2 nodes, and effectors while preserving human judgment and authorities.

  • Sensor registration and quality scoring
  • Rules & AI-based routing of tracks and alerts
  • Integration into existing fire control systems

Combined & Coalition JADC2

Architectures that account for releasability, classification, and national caveats while improving combined information sharing.

  • Multi-level security and cross-domain patterns
  • Data tagging for releasability and caveats
  • Federated, partner-hosted analytic capabilities

Representative JADC2 Mission Use Cases

Illustrative examples of how CNDEZ Federal Focus can support JADC2-aligned efforts across Combatant Commands, Services, and mission partners.

NORAD/USNORTHCOM: Homeland Defense Decision Advantage

A joint team needs to fuse air, maritime, space, and cyber feeds to gain earlier warning and faster response for evolving threats.

  • Integrated data fabric across sensor and C2 systems
  • AI-assisted indications & warnings and COA analytics
  • Commander dashboards aligned to JADC2 “sense–make sense–act”

Indo-Pacific: Distributed, Contested C2

Forces operate across vast distances with contested communications and the need for resilient, distributed C2 constructs.

  • Edge-deployed JADC2 nodes with bandwidth-aware syncing
  • Resilient, multi-path transport with priority rules
  • Mission applications that continue under degraded conditions

Service Exercise: Project Convergence / ABMS Integration

A Service and Joint team need to integrate disparate experimental systems into a coherent kill-web demonstration.

  • Common data and message standards across vendors
  • Scenario-driven orchestration and instrumentation
  • After-action analytics and replay for learning
