WASHINGTON \u2014 A U.S. Army hub for battlefield communications development will soon oversee a larger portfolio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Program Executive Office for Command, Control and Communications-Tactical, or PEO C3T<\/a>, will by Oct. 1 absorb the network-heavy assignments of the Program Executive Office for Enterprise Information Systems, or PEO EIS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The move coincides with the start of the government\u2019s fiscal 2024, and work to transition the integrated enterprise network projects is already underway, according to Paul Mehney, a spokesperson for PEO C3T.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIn a nutshell, it\u2019s the camp-, post- and station-modernization efforts that are coming to us,\u201d Mehney told C4ISRNET<\/a> on March 17. \u201cIt\u2019s the larger satellite efforts that are coming to us, and then all of the base first responder-type radios and networks are coming over, as well.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PEO C3T handles networking gear and spearheads so-called capability sets, tranches of upgraded kit rolled out to infantry and armor alike every two years. PEO C3T works closely with the Network Cross-Functional Team. PEO EIS, on the other hand, manages the information technology and business systems that soldiers rely upon day-to-day.<\/p>\n\n\n\t
