The Director-General of the agency, Dr Dakuku Peterside made this known over the weekend at the official opening of the Command, Control Computer Communication and information System (
C4i) Centre at the Nigerian Maritime Resource Development Centre in Lagos.
To date, AE has benefitted more than 1,850 communications specialists and military planners in
C4I, tactics, techniques, and procedures.
Under the new IDIQ contract, Serco will compete for task orders to deliver shipboard services to the Program Executive Office (PEO) Command, Control, Communications, Computers, and Intelligence (
C4I), Carrier and Air Integration Program Office (PMW 750) at the Test and Integration Facility Complex in Charleston, SC and aboard ships primarily at Pascagoula, MS; Newport News, VA; and Norfolk, VA shipyards.
PMW 790 is part of the Program Executive Office (PEO)
C4I, which delivers threat-based
C4I and space system capabilities that enable the fleet to compete, deter and win.
Network Centric Warfare is synonymous with
C4I, as militaries seek to leverage robust information sharing systems to enhance connectivity of military assets and achieve information and decision-superiority.
At the deployed site, the mission commander provides a turnkey
C4I solution to the supported HQ by working closely with the A/N/G/J6, and in NATO this position is nearly always a senior field grade officer.
Beyond point surveillance and for shore-based higher-level command & control applications, the most recent solutions come from information services providers; their level of IT, and sometimes Nato standardisation, enable system integrators to embed them in Maritime
C4I applications.
For Calgary-based
C4i, their answer to "Why?" is simple: To save lives.
The proposed framework is intended to interoperate multiple
C4I instances over a loosely coupledSOA architecture.
" The software will be connected to the
C4i system in the police headquarters.
Mauricio Lopez, chief of the institution, said the new building will be the headquarters for the technology platform project and Plan
C4I (command, control, communications, computers and intelligence).
Program Executive Office (PEO) Command, Control, Communications, Computers and Intelligence (
C4I) incorporated financial representatives within its improvement teams.
