Current mission command systems are not mobile, intuitive, or survivable enough to easily overcome the current threat, changes in the character of warfare, and the pace of technology. As part of the Army's continuous transformation effort, initiatives are being implemented to transform how the Army operates, trains, and equips for C2 capabilities that enhance its lethality, mobility, and survivability in large-scale combat as part of the Joint Force. The Army's operational imperative is to improve systems responsibly, using innovative solutions from units and industry; at the same time, preparing for the future by ensuring the next generation of C2 systems are built on a portfolio of capabilities that effectively address emerging threats and ensure dominance over adversaries. The Army's Next Generation Command and Control (NGC2) portfolio of capabilities will provide commanders with the ability to make more, better, and faster decisions through advanced analytics, an integrated data layer, open architecture, and robust and resilient transport. The result is data-centric C2 at every echelon that can operate in any environment. NGC2 requirements are currently being informed by persistent experimentation. Market research and prototyping will create a competitive environment for innovative industry partnerships and continuous integration o…
