  Here’s when industry can expect to hear more on the Army’s tactical cloud

  By: Mark Pomerleau The Army plans to respond to more than 70 proposals from industry on how to best take advantage of the tactical cloud before the end of the year. As part of the service's efforts to modernize its tactical communications and network, the program office and the network cross functional team hosted an industry day in August in Raleigh, North Carolina. Army leaders discussed how to tell industry about the service's goals and to learn more about what industry can offer.

Peter Gallagher, director of the network cross functional team told the audience during the August event. “This will not work without dialogue.” The Army received 78 white papers in response to the two day tactical cloud event, according to an Oct. 17 tweet from Program Executive Office Command, Control, Communications – Tactical.

If selected, vendors will be notified of next progressive steps,”. the post said. https://www.c4isrnet.com/it-networks/2018/10/17/heres-when-industry-can-expect-to-hear-more-on-the-armys-tactical-cloud
