Composable CONOPs

A few years ago at a Network Centric Warfare conference I remember a veteran of Fallujah state emphatically that the key capabilities they used there were NOT systems created by the normal procurement waterfall.  Instead, those capabilities reflected a cobbling together of components to compose a CONOPs tailored to that specific context.

This Forrester report proposes a similar concept and calls it "dynamic business applications."  It's nice to see the business world converging on concepts similar to those proposed by Network Centric theorists a few years back. 

Composability (at the business level) is one of the key questions, and this report has some interesting ideas on how to better manage the growing challenge of balancing Exploitation and Exploration.
