Q: How is the Army Knowledge Online (AKO) portal performing, and how is it supporting transformation from the cultural, technological and enterprise levels?

A: We are extremely pleased with how AKO has evolved. There’s an AKO unclassified side, the NIPRnet side, and the SIPRnet side, which is secret. That has evolved very quickly. We now have 1.69 million accounts on it, and we get log-ins from around the world. About 49 percent of the active Army logs into AKO every week—49 percent of the active Army, much of which is deployed around the world. Last week, we also had about 3 million instant messages. 740,000 users have downloaded over 15.9 million documents. So we’re very pleased where AKO is today. On the SIPRnet side, AKO is very heavily used by the intelligence community and the operations community.

We are now moving into the next generation of where portals should be. Beginning this fall, when you log onto AKO, not only will it know who you are, but it also will know what your role in life is. If you log in as a specialist in a particular area of a certain grade, the information presented to you will be tailored to you alone. Some of that’s done today.

When I log in today, it already tells me whether I need a flu shot or if my physical is up to date. That’s going to be greatly expanded. If you have something that affects your specialty, it will come up for you. It will also allow us to ensure that you do not get information that you should not have. You won’t have access to information that is sensitive or that you don’t have a need to know.

I’m very pleased with our progress so far. We’re also working with the other services to link their portals together. We’re just beginning that process, and once we get the role base done in the Army, it will enable us to have a much tighter relationship with the other portals.
