- Thales
has been awarded by NATO the delivery of Increment 2 for the NATO
Common Operational Picture (NCOP) programme, which will provide joint
forces under NATO command with enhanced situational awareness and
decision support in the theatre.
- Thales
was selected for Increment 1 in 2012 and has now been chosen to upgrade
the current version of the system, which has been in service at NATO
command centres since 2015.
- Through
this contract, Thales will continue to help NATO enhance its mission
coordination, planning and command capabilities by providing a unified,
real-time representation of information from theatres of operations.
(BUSINESS WIRE)-- On
17 March 2021, NATO awarded to Thales the new increment to provide an
operational situational awareness system that will give NATO commanders a
shared picture of an area of interest or mission to enhance overall
awareness of joint forces operations and support mission planning,
coordination and command.
Joint
operations today involve land, air and naval units with many different
types of command systems, which generate huge amounts of georeferenced
operational information. NCOP will capture, aggregate and correlate all
this information to generate a single, comprehensive picture of the
theatre of operations, providing a Common Operational Picture (COP) that
will ensure that each entity has a shared view of the location, actions
and intentions of the forces in the field.
To
meet this requirement, Thales has developed a software system based on
an open architecture, with specialised modules that draw on the
company’s experience of different aspects of the command chain and are
fully compliant with commercial and military standards. This system is
designed to provide the operational community with secure access to
multiple COPs overlays on a geospatial reference. Tactical information
from multiple systems and data sources will improve situational
awareness for joint forces.
Each
COP is displayed in real time and shows key elements such as operations
in progress, friendly and enemy forces, their logistics and operational
capabilities, weather conditions and possible action plans for future
coordinated efforts.
NCOP
allows for synchronised management of all deployed forces and provide
effective support for collaborative planning and decision-making in an
operations centre. This in turn will enable joint forces command to
achieve information superiority.
With
this second contract, NATO will benefit from Thales’s extensive
expertise in interoperability management. Thales will upgrade the
technology used in the current system, which has been in service at NATO
command centres since 2015 and national command centres in France,
Poland and Spain. Thales will also add new functionality for time
management, event correlation and future strategic analysis.
“Thales
is proud to strengthen its partnership with NATO and to help achieve
greater decision superiority for NATO forces. We thank the Alliance for
placing its trust in us once again and for this latest opportunity to
support NATO's capacity to efficiently manage joint forces operations.” Gérard Herby, Vice President, Protection Systems, Thales.
