NSPM-11 is new, but not a public COG replacement
The White House posted NSPM-11 on June 5, 2026. It rescinds and replaces National Security Memorandum-25 and says a classified annex will be issued within 90 days.
Executive readout
What changed since the May refresh
The highest-confidence new signals are not a new public COG order. They are a cluster of command-and-control, classified-network, White House perimeter/construction, and continuity-node procurement records that deserve separate monitoring.
HASC mark adds explicit alternate command-post language
The FY27 NDAA chairman's mark includes Section 1636, requiring an assessment of designating the Joint Global Strike Operations Center as Global Operations Center-Alternate for U.S. Strategic Command.
White House construction perimeter remains a live anomaly
The latest NPS page lists closures for the Ellipse, E Street, Lafayette Park, White House Sidewalk, and related areas, citing Secret Service security needs and unique security requirements for White House and Lafayette Park construction.
Method
Classification logic
Confirmed updates
Facts tied to a current official or near-official record, such as a White House action, congressional PDF, SAM notice, NCPC record, or NPS notice.
Unresolved anomalies
Records that are real, but whose intent, follow-on action, procurement chain, funding path, or operational meaning remains incomplete in public sources.
Stale claims
Earlier dashboard claims that are superseded, demoted, unsupported by the newest scans, or still true only as historical context.
Confirmed updates
Verified public records through June 9, 2026
Each item below is anchored to a retrievable public source. Items with analytical implications are repeated in the anomaly or dual-use lanes, but the facts are kept separate here.
NSPM-11 posted
NSPM-11 was posted by the White House on June 5, 2026. It rescinds and replaces NSM-25, and it states that a classified annex will be issued within 90 days.
AI security EO posted
The June 2 AI order directs CNSS to prioritize cyber defense of National Security Systems and directs CISA to release guidance to prioritize civilian federal cyber defense for vital functions.
J-GSOC alternate command-post assessment
HASC Section 1636 would require a report on designating the Joint Global Strike Operations Center at Barksdale Air Force Base as Global Operations Center-Alternate for U.S. Strategic Command.
ICBM alert-level prohibition language
HASC Section 1634 would prohibit FY2027 funds from reducing the responsiveness or alert level of U.S. ICBMs or reducing deployed ICBMs below 400, subject to exceptions.
SASC NDAA markup records exist, not a dedicated COG hearing
The Senate Armed Services hearing index lists June 9 FY2027 NDAA markup sessions, including closed and subcommittee markups. No standalone public COG/COOP hearing was found.
White House and Lafayette Park closures confirmed
NPS lists closures from May 20 through June 28, 2026, with additional sidewalk closures June 12-15. The page cites Secret Service security requirements, secure perimeter, stand-off distance, and unique security requirements tied to construction projects.
NCPC East Wing record still latest at April 2
NCPC File 8733 still shows April 2, 2026 as the latest commission action approving preliminary and final site and building plans for the East Wing Modernization Project.
Mount Weather broadcast studio RFI confirmed
SAM.gov lists a FEMA Mount Weather Emergency Operations Center sources-sought notice for Visual Broadcast Studio and Media Center Equipment, and states that it is an RFI only, not a solicitation for proposals.
Cheyenne Mountain CCIC2S SLEP RFI confirmed
The CCIC2S SLEP RFI describes modernization tied to NORAD, Cheyenne Mountain Complex-Integrated Tactical Warning/Attack Assessment, and missile warning for air, missile, and space threats.
USTRANSCOM support RFQ deadline updated
The USTRANSCOM Acquisition Program Support RFQ, solicitation HTC71126QE152, is listed as due June 8, 2026, after amendments. No continuity-specific language was extracted from the accessible listing text.
FEMA Review Council implementation remains pending
NLC reports that the FEMA Review Council approved recommendations at its final public meeting on May 7, 2026, and that the administration would review recommendations and determine next steps.
CFA May page did not expose East Wing or PEOC item in extracted text
The May 2026 CFA meeting page extraction did not return an East Wing, PEOC, or White House ballroom item. This is a negative confirmation only against the extracted page text.
Unresolved anomalies
Records that are real, but not fully explained in public sources
These are not asserted as covert activity. They are unresolved because official records confirm pieces of activity while public documentation leaves procurement, authorization, operational role, or timing questions open.
PEOC/East Wing procurement gap persists
NCPC approval and NPS security closures are public, but a complete public procurement chain for deeper PEOC/East Wing continuity infrastructure remains unresolved.
White House perimeter closures extend the watch period
NPS confirms broad temporary closures and unique security requirements, but the accessible page does not provide construction details sufficient to resolve whether the closures are purely event, construction, security, or layered purposes.
NSPM-11 classified annex is pending
NSPM-11 explicitly promises a classified annex within 90 days. The content and operational continuity implications of that annex remain non-public.
AI order has continuity-adjacent cyber-defense implications
The AI order prioritizes cyber defense of National Security Systems and civilian federal systems supporting vital functions, but it is not framed as a COG/COOP directive.
HASC J-GSOC language is not enacted law yet
The alternate command-post assessment is a chairman's mark provision. Its final status depends on committee, chamber, conference, and enactment outcomes.
SASC closed markups limit public visibility
SASC listed closed FY2027 NDAA markup sessions on June 9, but closed markup records do not provide public details sufficient to assess embedded continuity, NC3, or infrastructure provisions.
Cheyenne Mountain RFI may include inaccessible details
The CCIC2S SLEP notice is continuity-adjacent because it concerns warning/C2 infrastructure, but RFI attachments and future procurement details may remain limited or unavailable publicly.
Mount Weather RFI lacks award trail as of cutoff
The broadcast/media equipment RFI is real and located at MWEOC, but no public award was verified through the June 9 cutoff in the completed scan.
FEMA post-review policy path is not settled
The public record shows recommendations moving to administration review, while implementation may require administrative, congressional, or regulatory action.
Army North COOP DR site remains metadata-limited
The title-level COOP disaster-recovery signal remains unresolved because the accessible public notice metadata is insufficient to judge scope or continuity significance.
No public current COGCON level
No official public source was found that states a current COGCON level. Any specific public COGCON claim remains unresolved unless tied to an official release.
Intelligence perspective
Possible dual-use continuity preparation signals, Jan 2025-Jun 9 2026
Scores rank public-source signal strength, not proof of covert intent. A high score means the public record has continuity specificity, node proximity, C2 relevance, opacity, redundancy/hardening relevance, and timing convergence.
95
White House East Wing/PEOC complex, perimeter security, and public procurement opacity
- Confirmed facts: NCPC approved East Wing plans on April 2, and NPS confirms White House/Lafayette construction-related security closures.
- Why dual-use: Work at the executive core with security closures and incomplete public procurement can support ordinary modernization and hardened continuity functions.
- Benign explanation: Ballroom, public-event, visitor, and White House security modernization.
88
Raven Rock modernization and operations-facility budgeting
- Confirmed facts: Raven Rock remains a known continuity node with FY2026 military construction budgeting cited in the prior source set.
- Why dual-use: Hardening, operations space, and continuity-node modernization are inherently dual-use for readiness and emergency governance.
- Benign explanation: Lifecycle replacement, safety, facility sustainment, and scheduled MILCON.
84
J-GSOC as possible U.S. Strategic Command Global Operations Center-Alternate
- Confirmed facts: HASC Section 1636 would require an assessment of J-GSOC at Barksdale as an alternate command post, including redundancy, resiliency, survivability, and NC3 support.
- Why dual-use: Alternate command-post language is direct continuity architecture for nuclear and long-range strike command functions.
- Benign explanation: Legislative planning, force resilience, and deterrence posture review.
82
Cheyenne Mountain CCIC2S Service Life Extension Program RFI
- Confirmed facts: The RFI concerns NORAD, NCMC-ITW/AA, CCIC2S modernization, continuous missile warning, C2 nodes, and communication/dissemination links.
- Why dual-use: Modernized warning and command infrastructure supports both normal deterrence operations and continuity under attack or crisis conditions.
- Benign explanation: Long-planned lifecycle modernization of missile-warning infrastructure.
76
Mount Weather Emergency Operations Center broadcast/media equipment RFI
- Confirmed facts: SAM.gov lists a small-business sources-sought/RFI for Visual Broadcast Studio and Media Center Equipment at FEMA MWEOC.
- Why dual-use: Broadcast and media infrastructure at a federal emergency operations center can support public messaging, command communications, and crisis continuity.
- Benign explanation: Routine communications modernization and studio equipment refresh.
72
NSPM-11 classified annex and AI national-security governance
- Confirmed facts: NSPM-11 promises a classified annex within 90 days and addresses sensitive national-security AI issues.
- Why dual-use: Classified network, AI governance, and high-security system controls can affect continuity of classified decision-support systems.
- Benign explanation: National-security AI policy modernization, not continuity mobilization.
68
FEMA Review Council and preparedness restructuring
- Confirmed facts: EO 14239 initiated state and local preparedness changes, and EO 14397 continued the FEMA Review Council.
- Why dual-use: Disaster authority restructuring can alter federal-state continuity roles during catastrophic emergencies.
- Benign explanation: Disaster policy reform and federalism-focused preparedness overhaul.
58
USTRANSCOM acquisition support resilience
- Confirmed facts: The acquisition support RFQ is real and past due after amendments.
- Why dual-use: Transportation command acquisition resilience can matter in mobilization, logistics, and emergency posture.
- Benign explanation: Routine acquisition-program support with no extracted COG-specific text.
48
USPTO COOP support RFI alignment
- Confirmed facts: Prior scan found a USPTO COOP support RFI that closed May 6, with no follow-on verified through the cutoff.
- Why dual-use: Civil-agency COOP support can be part of baseline continuity compliance.
- Benign explanation: Routine Federal Continuity Directive implementation.
35
Network Extension for User Continuity and Sustainability BAA
- Confirmed facts: The notice title contains continuity language, but no official source verified it as COG/COOP-specific.
- Why dual-use: Communications survivability can be continuity-relevant in the abstract.
- Benign explanation: Communications R&D, not a demonstrated COG preparation signal.
