This MARADMIN provides initial guidance regarding the availability and integration of Maven Smart System (MSS) for the Marine Corps.  2. Background.  2.a. In March 2025, the Deputy Commandant for Combat Development and Integration (DC CD&I) approved implementation of an Artificial Intelligence (AI)-enabled Battle Management Command and Control (BMC2) enterprise solution to fulfill a I Marine Expeditionary Force (MEF) Urgent Universal Need Statement (UUNS), per reference (a) and (b).   2.b. In August 2025, the Marine Corps acquired an Enterprise License for unlimited access to MSS via SIPRnet (IL-6 cloud) for commands and organizations specified in paragraph 4. Enterprise licensing provides an MSS account for all assigned and attached personnel at any echelon within the specified commands who have a SIPRnet account. Information regarding account creation and training is provided in paragraph 3.c.  2.c. MSS, a Joint Program of Record developed in part by the National Geospatial Intelligence Agency (NGA) in partnership with industry vendors, emerged as the standard fires and effects integration platform across multiple combatant commands and was selected to meet the Service requirement. MSS consists of a comprehensive “single pane of glass” user interface backed by a data management platform that simplifies the sharing of data and tools integrating processes and workflows for AI-enabled BMC2 and fusion across warfighting functions and echelons of command. Together, this provides “information positional advantage” while expediting decision-support cycles and decision-making.  2.d. The MSS Data Platform manages and presents data geospatially with a wide range of components and tools including Foundry, Gaia, Target Workbench, Maverick, and LogX. These applications enable management of complex sensing, shooting, and BMC2 functions integral to the execution of Maritime and Joint Fires. Combatant commands adopting MSS include U.S. Indo-Pacific Command, U.S. Central Command, and U.S. European Commands. This capability is a component of an overall information system for Combined Joint Command and Control (CJADC2), towards which the Joint Force is converging.  2.e. The Marine Corps has participated in an Extended Field User Evaluation (EFUE) with MSS at I, II, and III MEF. This EFUE, which was limited to users per MEF, will conclude by the end of FY25. Marine Corps units have also employed MSS in a variety of operational and experimental applications and continue to employ the underlying technical capabilities in related efforts such as the Deputy Commandant for Information (DC I) Readiness 360 program and DC CD&I Capabilities Development Pilot. These evaluations, experiments, and pilots -- including an Echelon 2 and Echelon 3 Joint Task Force Certification Exercise – have informed best practices and provide valuable feedback on workflow and  data integration.  3. Execution.  3.a. The Project Dynamis Cross-Functional Team (CFT) will accelerate the delivery of a fully operational MSS capability at appropriate echelons that integrates with other MAGTF Command and Control systems and wider joint force solutions. The CFT will include representatives from across the range of Marine Corps stakeholders and implement program governance supporting MSS integration for both operational and supporting establishment functions.  3.a.1. The primary objective is to provide each MEF and its Major Subordinate Commands (MSC) the BMC2 platform and tools necessary to maintain and contribute to Joint Maritime Domain Awareness (MDA), Joint Fires and Effects integration, and logistical sustainment awareness. These capabilities are necessary to operate as a Stand-in Force (SIF) performing Combined/Joint C5ISR-T and Counter-C5ISRT, and to be a viable Joint Task Force Headquarters (JTF HQ).  3.a.2. A secondary objective is to further enhance functionality of Headquarters Marine Corps (HQMC) and supporting establishment commands in force development, generation, and sustainment through enhanced data management and AI tools.  3.b. The Project Dynamis CFT will publish and orchestrate an MSS implementation plan to provide Service-level governance and centralized management where necessary to ensure unity of effort, efficiency, and risk mitigation in achieving enterprise-wide capabilities. The implementation plan will support decentralized integration and refinement of MSS capabilities through an agile learning approach at each using command. All units specified in paragraph four below are encouraged to pursue MSS implementation through access to shared resources and references. While this MARADMIN provides general guidance on account creation and initial training, each MEF has designated leads for MSS Implementation with associated Field Service Representative (FSR) support for local management. The Project Dynamis CFT will work with other commands and headquarters elements to assist with implementing similarly local management.    3.c. Account creation. Prospective users with existing access to SIPR must first register for a GEOAxIS account with NGA. This is accomplished on SIPR at: https:(slash)(slash)portal.geoaxis.sc2s .nga.smil.mil. After users have individually registered their PKI with GEOAxis, they can then request account access to the MSS portal at https:(slash)(slash)palantir.maven.nga.smil.mil/multipass/login/ all. There will be a manual review process associated with this account creation. If there is no response within two business days, or a negative response, MEF personnel should contact their designated FSR per organizational guidance. Personnel not assigned to a MEF can contact the MARADMIN POC.  3.d.  Training.  3.d.1. On-line Training. There are several short videos and briefings available on SIPRnet to provide prospective users with an initial orientation to the tools and resources. See subparagraphs below for listing of on-line training resources.  3.d.1.a. Once users have access to the MSS Portal, they can access content available in the MSS training hub. From the MSS portal home page, users can navigate there by selecting the icon for the mortarboard/graduation cap. The direct URL is https:(slash) (slash)go.intelink.sgov.gov/9SnNQmR  3.d.1.b.  NGA Maven Wiki Page:  https:(slash)(slash)intellipedia. intelink.sgov.gov/wiki/NGA_Data_and_Digital_Innovation_(DDI)_Maven _Program.  There are links to a video channel and individual short training videos are available at the bottom of the Wiki page.  3.d.1.c. Introduction to NGA Maven (Geospatial Intelligence focused): https:(slash)(slash)college.nga.smil.mil/cbt/CSCV1100 /index.html  3.d.2. Unit Training. Initial unit-level training within each MEF leveraging assigned FSR support can be locally coordinated according to command internal guidance. The MEF, and other commands, can coordinate for additional training to be provided at NGA Headquarters in Springfield, Virginia, or request Mobile Training Team support from NGA and/or Palantir as appropriate. During initial phases of MSS Implementation, anticipate a heavy demand for training support which will be centrally prioritized and managed by the Project Dynamis CFT.  Contact the POC to coordinate training requests. A subsequent MARADMIN will identify scheduled training opportunities and provide further coordination guidance to facilitate unit and mission specific training needs.  3.d.3. Unit Implementation. Adoption, integration, and refinement of MSS capabilities within command decision-making process will require an iterative approach to fully achieve desired outcomes. This includes the traditional progression of individual through collective training, but also the refinement of data integration, systems architectures, visualizations and interfaces, and further refinement of tactics, techniques, and procedures. The Project Dynamis CFT and MSS implementation plan will provide for on-going engagement supporting command-led implementation efforts. Units are also encouraged to leverage and contribute to the development of institutional knowledge. Three primary resources are listed below.  3.d.3.a. Marine Corps Center for Lessons Learned.  Several units have contributed feedback accessible on NIPR at https:(slash)(slash) usmc.sharepoint-mil.us/sites/TECOM_MCCLL.  3.d.3.b. Army Center for Lessons Learned. Navigate to the CAC enabled SharePoint site via http:(slash)(slash)www.army.mil/call.  3.d.3.c. An MSS Community of Interest teams MS Teams channels has been established on SIPR at https:(slash)(slash)go.intelink.sgov. gov/G8XESNR.  4. Applicability.  4.a. Fleet Marine Force Headquarters as well as Functional and Geographic Marine Forces Command Headquarters are not fully addressed under this Service-level capability as they are generally provided access to MSS as needed through their associated Combatant Command Headquarters. Marine Forces Command and subordinate commands are specified in paragraph 4.b.4.    4.b.
