Naval Aviation Readiness Dashboard

Did you know that the U.S. Navy consciously runs itself like a business enterprise? That includes embracing the value of enterprise dashboards and other business intelligence tools.

The Navy has an overarching program called Naval Aviation Enterprise (NAE) that is operated much like a $60 billion corporation. It’s overall vision is to “To deliver the right force with the right readiness at the right cost at the right time … today, and in the future.”

“It’s about collaborating, sharing and enhancing our business practices. Not to turn the Navy into a business, but to understand the business of the Navy so that we remain the most effective and efficient Navy in the world.”

— CNO Admiral Gary Roughead, March 2008
