What project 3260 buys

Naval Operational Business Logistics Enterprise (NOBLE) is the logistics information technology family of systems (FoS) comprised of the Naval Operational Supply System (NOSS), the Naval Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (N-MRO), and supporting capabilities to include a common platform hosting environment and data exchange solutions, and the Logistics Integrated Data Environment (L-IDE) which supports and align readiness data systems to ensure that trusted, critical logistics data is widely available to or accessible by mission commanders, warfighters, decision-makers, and mission partners in a real-time, useable, secure, and linked manner to enable analytics, and support broader DoW/DON data efforts. NOBLE enables combat lethality by generating and sustaining Navy and Marine Corps force readiness for operational commanders afloat and ashore, providing the foundational capability to keep ships driving, planes flying, and weapons firing from an equipment Operational Availability (Ao) perspective. NOBLE is the centerpiece of the Fleet's strategic imperative to improve Sailor, unit and group maintenance self-sufficiency combat operations in a communications and access-denied arena. NOBLE's mission is to provide the Navy and Marine Corps with an integrated, scalable, and cyber-secure capability that supports the management of logistical information, material, and funds required to maintain and operate ships, submarines, and aircraft. NOBLE FoS will provide direct support to warfighter readiness with maintenance, supply, and financial capabilities, and a federated data environment to enable information integration for decision making in contested environments, and real-time data driven operational and ashore readiness analytics. These capabilities include enhanced situational awareness, planning, execution, personnel administration, and management of maintenance and supply logistics and business functions to ships/submarines, aviation squadrons, shore operational sites, and expeditionary units with a total user base exceeding 150,000. The NOBLE FoS will support Aviation and Maritime organizational, intermediate, and depot level maintenance activities and facilities.

Funding trajectory

Project 3260 funding, FY2025–FY2031

Prior years are actuals, the budget year is the request, and the outyears are the FYDP plan. Estimate types are colored and never summed into one figure. Projects carry the full five-year plan; the activities inside them stop at the budget year.

3 accomplishments / planned programs

The R-2A exhibit — the only level of the budget that describes work that has not happened yet. Activities carry the prior, current and budget year only, no five-year plan. 1 of them describes FY2027 work in enough detail to have its own page; the rest are shown here in full. Coverage is partial across the corpus, so count activities, never total them.

FY2027 planned work Continue the development of additional business processes and data management capabilities that build upon the foundational MVP, expand the value of the system to accommodate the functions of more complex business activities, and continue to test the disconnected functionality of the system in support of shipboard system integration.

FY2026 to FY2027 change FY 2026 to FY 2027 increase ($0.969M) in NOSS funding due to the acceleration of future development toward initial deployment and subsequent expansion of functionality.

FY2026 plans — current year Prepare for User Acceptance Testing (UAT) by awarding Other Transaction Agreement (OTA) to build foundational solutions within a common Navy S/4 HANA environment, conduct testing of the disconnected operations functionality, and network application integration planning in support of a Minimal Viable Product (MVP).

Logistics Integrated Data Environment (L-IDE)▲ 18%
FY2025 actual$7.5M
FY2026 enacted$6.6M
FY2027 request$7.8M

FY2027 planned work Complete Phase 3 implementation of the Logistics Integrated Data Environment (L-IDE) which integrates supply, financial, operational/intermediate/depot level aviation and maritime maintenance, and readiness data into a single end-to-end information environment to inform Fleet and Type Commanders decision making in contested environments, and provides real-time data driven operational and ashore reporting metrics.

FY2026 to FY2027 change FY 2026 to FY 2027 increase ($1.211M) supports the expanded data pipelines supporting greater data flow, processing capacity, and increased throughput for analytics and operations for each sub-domain managed data system. This advances the integration of legacy and transactional IT systems into one integrated data hub and enables sub-domains to scale/migrate/integrate enabler systems and provides teams greater support for L-IDE requirements and capabilities to provide real-time data driven operational and ashore reporting metrics.

FY2026 plans — current year Complete Phase 2 implementation of the Logistics integrated data environment (L-IDE) which integrates supply, financial, operational/intermediate/depot level aviation and maritime maintenance, and readiness data into a single end-to-end information environment to inform Fleet and Type Commanders decision making in contested environments, and provides real-time data driven operational and ashore reporting metrics.

Named performers on project 3260

Performers named in the R-3 exhibit under this project. Share is of the project's whole FY2027 R-3 total — the same denominator the program-element split uses, so the two read on one scale and will not sum to 100% when unnamed or government work is in the mix. Budget-justification contract funding, not obligations.
