Kurt Rothenhaus (PMW-160) cut the ribbon to officially open the new Network Integration and Engineering Facility (NIEF) Consolidated Afloat Networks and Enterprise Systems (CANES) Pre-installation, Testing and Checkout (PITCO) Laboratory on Naval Station Norfolk. The NIEF is the new home for SPAWAR Systems Center Atlantic's primary CANES pre-installation and application integration. CANES is the Program of Record (POR) system fielded on Navy ships and shore sites. This facility will strengthen the Navy's efforts as it continues to build Command, Control, Communication, Computers, and Intelligence (C4I) capabilities afloat and ashore. SSC Atlantic develops, acquires and provides life cycle support for command, control, communications, computer, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (C4ISR) systems, information technology and space capabilities. A leading edge Navy engineering center, SSC Atlantic designs, builds, tests, fields and supports many of the finest frontline C4ISR systems in use today, and those being planned for the future ( Navy photo by Jerry Sekerak/Released)
