HUBCAP
HUBCAP…Announcing CAP’s new Innovation portal!
Civil Air Patrol’s new innovation (HUBCAP) is focused on honoring the contributions to innovation
our members make every day by highlighting and making accessible innovative solutions that
enhance mission execution and/or mission relevance. Designed by the Technical Advisory Group –
your Region IT leadership team, HUBCAP will serve as an eServices repository where innovation
solutions will be shared with other CAP members. All active CAP members will have the ability to
submit their innovations to the portal, as well as browse the repository for posted solutions that
may meet a local operational challenge. HUBCAP will be deployed in two phases:
Phase 1: (Launched on 10 December)
Scope: IT solutions
How it works: Software developers who own a code repository, as are available in services such as
GitHub, can submit a request to post a link on HUBCAP. Members who submit their ideas will certify
that their solution meets CAP regulation requirements and that they agree to allow free use of their
solutions to other CAP members. The Innovation Pit Crew will perform a security review of
linked code. If no security concerns are notated, the TAG will approve the link. Members will then
be able to access the code for reuse to support their local requirements. Members will also be able
to rate the repository in order to assist others in identifying high value solutions. It is important to
note that the TAG review is focused on the security of the code, not functionality. There is no
evaluation of the “goodness” of an idea, no approval gates to pass. The goal is to determine the
highest value solutions through crowdsourcing by members via their ratings and the volume of
reuse.
Phase 2: (August 2020)
Scope: Other Innovation Artifacts
How it works: HUBCAP will be expanded beyond IT code, to allow for sharing of other types of
innovative solutions. Again, members who submit their innovations will certify that their solution
does not violate CAP regulations and that they agree to allow free use of their solutions to CAP
members. Approval for inclusion will be limited to cursory review for safety or security concerns but
there will be no approval gates. These innovations will be evaluated through the same
crowdsourcing approach.
