By GlobalDataCartmell further added: “We are very pleased to work with the army in building a technically sophisticated communications and information service that supports their operations from personnel in the field to decision-making at the command centre.”
The MoD initiated the £3.2bn LE TacCIS programme to replace the British Army’s existing Bowman land communication and information system (CIS) as it is approaching obsolescence.
Jointly funded by the UK’s Joint Forces Command (JFC) and by army HQ, the programme comprises five projects and will address critical system obsolescence, as well as introduce a more agile TacCIS solution.
The solution will be designed to provide ‘information superiority’ to UK commanders.
