-
Working Location:Mons, Belgium**-
Security Clearance: NATO Secret**-
Language:High proficiency level in English language

**DESCRIPTION: *****The IT Modernization (ITM) Project was conceptualized and launched under the auspices of Capability Package 9C0CP150 as a multi-phase initiative to comprehensively modernize the IT Infrastructure available to NATO. This project has numerous dependencies and interdependencies to ACO related NATO C3 and non-C3 capabilities and therefore requires dedicated resource to support its implementation.
*****Numerous programmatic issues have been encountered since the initiative was launched, with representative examples including: -
Facilities - A power distribution issue at a critical data-centre was not elevated to the attention of Business Change Authority (BCA) representatives prior to the project's Critical Design Review (CDR). As a consequence, the delivery of ITM Wave 1 to ACO was delayed with subsequent impacts
-
Coordination

ACO BCAs are informed that Application & User Migration Milestones for ITM Wave 1 were delayed. However, insight regarding the impact on ACO business change and business continuity of those delays is lacking. Effective coordination at a planning and management level remains problematic

- **Dependencies

Functional availability of ITM derived services to users is necessarily dependent upon a number of interrelated services and processes that are also being developed, to include:
**Underlying communications infrastructure

- **Site Acceptance and Security Accreditation for ITM
- **Enterprise class PKI functionality & interoperability
*****The ability of NATO ACO J6 Cyberspace Division, Service Management Branch Peacetime Establishment (PE) staff to quickly identify ITM related business change issues or questionable programmatic assertions are necessarily constrained by the backgrounds and skills of available personnel. Therefore, the ACO Service Management Branch, Business Change Management Function (BCMF) requires access to surge support that provides Subject Matter Expertise in areas that include: ITM programme and project level, Application & User Migration, business processes across ACO.
