Information sharing is a key tenet of network-centric warfare (NCW). Information sharing succeeds when the right information is provided to the right people at the right time and place so that they can make the right decisions. This will not occur without an information management policy and process that is fitted to the needs of NCW – one that is flexible, seamless, and complete. In this paper we describe the essential architecture of a net-centric information management process, one that is based on the information and data management strategy of the US Air Force.
