RMKS/1. On 13 January 2015, Microsoft announced end of mainstream support
and the beginning of the lifecycle extended support phase for the Windows
(WIN) 7 operating system (OS). Extend support is available through 14
January 2020. This NAVADMIN alerts resource sponsors (RSs) and program
managers (PMs) to plan and observe guidance in order to achieve a timely
transition from WIN 7 to the next WIN OS version.
2. PMs responsible for ashore information technology (IT) assets shall
migrate all Next Generation Enterprise Network, Non-secure Internet Protocol
Router Network (NIPRNET) and Secret Internet Protocol Router Network
(SIPRNET) systems; OCONUS Navy Enterprise Network, NIPRNET, SIPRNET, and Top
Secret/Sensitive Compartment Information systems; and Navy legacy network
systems and applications to WIN 10 or more advanced Microsoft OS environment

14 January 2020. The program funding plan for migration should occur during
the program objective memorandum 2018 (POM-18) budget cycle. Effective 1
October 2017, IT procurements submitted for the WIN 7 OS will be disapproved.
3. PMs responsible for afloat IT assets, including platform and weapons
systems IT, operating in the Consolidated Afloat Network Enterprise Service

therefore the program and funding plan for system and application migration
to WIN 10 in FY19 and beyond should take place during the POM-18 budget
cycle. Remaining Integrated Shipboard Network System (ISNS) and platform
centric networks associated with LPD-17 Common Operating Environment, LCS
Total Ship Computing Environment, and DDG-1000 Total Ship Computing
environments should plan for WIN 10 migration during the POM-18 budget cycle
