PSI Pax:: Navy Marine Corps Intranet (NMCI)

Projects Listing

As a qualified subcontractor on the Navy Marine Corps Intranet (NMCI), PSI Pax provides personnel at multiple NMCI sites across the country.

NMCI provides the Navy and Marine Corps with a full range of network-based information services on a single, enterprisewide intranet. The common environment will improve security, periodically integrate the most up-to-date commercial technologies, and centralize information technology budgeting and expenditures.

Eventually, the massive NMCI network will link more than 400,000 workstations and laptops (collectively referred to as "seats") for 500,000 Navy and Marine Corps users across the continental United States, Hawaii, Cuba, Guam, Japan and Puerto Rico. This program of unprecedented scale ensures the secure and reliable transmission of voice, video and data information worldwide, helping the Navy and Marine Corps enhance network security, ensure interoperability, improve reliability, facilitate knowledge sharing, and increase productivity while reducing costs.

In addition to moving to an e-business model with common applications and databases, NMCI will support new processes and technologies such as knowledge management, distance learning, and telemedicine to improve the quality of life for sailors, marines and civilian employees.

NMCI Facts:

NMCI has more than 500,000 users. Only the Internet is larger.
Over 346,000 seats (workstations) are on order.
NMCI includes: 4 network operations centers (NOC's), 3 enterprise help desks, 16+ classified server farms, and 31 unclassified server farms.

Improved security is unquestionably NMCI's greatest value. In 2005, NMCI's security stopped more than 20 million attacks on the network. And, each month, NMCI traps, quarantines, and disinfects approximately 70,000 viruses.

The ultimate advantages for our military include increased combat readiness and effectiveness, and improved quality of life.
