Consolidated Afloat Networks and Enterprise Services (CANES)

Procure Common Afloat Networks and Enterprise Services (CANES) full deployment production units to promote the early exchange of information.

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 a Common Computing Environment (CCE) 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.
