Mission
The Department of Defense Information Network (DODIN) required a critical technology refresh to replace outdated core routers and optimize network performance across its global infrastructure. With aging network components creating operational vulnerabilities and increasing maintenance costs, CRS was tasked with executing a large-scale hardware transition that would modernize the system while ensuring minimal disruptions to active military operations.

Solution
CRS led the execution of the Core Router Refresh (CRR) initiative, replacing obsolete routers with a Two-Level Parallel Plane (2LPP) architecture. The project involved hardware decommissioning, system reconfiguration, and infrastructure modernization at 128 locations across both CONUS and OCONUS sites. To mitigate risk, CRS coordinated Authorized Service Interruptions (ASIs) during non-peak hours and leveraged real-time diagnostics to prevent equipment failures.

Results
The project was successfully completed with zero downtime, ensuring continuous operational capability for DoD missions. The transition improved network resilience, optimized routing performance, and significantly reduced future sustainment costs. CRS’s proactive procurement strategies saved over $15,000 in installation costs, while the successful execution positioned the company as a key partner for future DoD network modernization initiatives.
