Description

The ballistic missile defence (BMD) programme has been established to provide averified architecture with the capability to defend NATO allies and deployed forcesagainst the full range of ballistic missile (BM) threats. This BMD capability is provided bya system-of-systems that is composed of a NATO common-funded battlefieldmanagement, command, control, communications and intelligence (BMC3I) system,and interoperable with sensors and weapons systems provided by Allies.

The BMD development involves the transition from this Baseline Capability TBMD/BMD, to a fullBMD capability.

Some key areas for this expansion are:

- full coverage of NATO European territory and population centres under threat

- full integration of upper layer weapon systems and the consequent need to plan and execute pre-planned responses

- the need to consider consequence of intercept (COI) / consequence of engagement (COE)

- greater focus on passive defence (military and civilian) and support for education,training, exercises and evaluation (ETEE) for the BMD capability

NCOP-BMD will provide situational awareness (SA) related functions resulting from these key areas ofexpansion in the BMD capability.

NCOP-BMD will include the following main functions:- monitor resource status, weapon system engagements; and display engagement startand end alerts- display ballistic missile consequence estimations for force protection, in support ofpassive defence- associate surveillance and planning data- compile the NATO common operational picture (COP) include warnings in the NATO COP- provide rolling summaries- display the NATO COP with BMD enhancements; and provide access to the enhanced NATOCOP- calculate and display track trajectory extrapolation- provide separate user sessions for operations and exercises- mark exercise related information - initialise with geospatial information - develop, initialise with and disseminate components of exercise specific settings and scenario

The scope of this project is split within two work packages:

- delivery of NCOP-BMD functionality comprising the activities for developing, delivering and initially supporting the NCOP-BMD functionality

- providing NCOP-BMD in-service support

The period of performance is anticipated to start in Q2 2024 and end in Q2 2029. It isimportant to note that this timeline represents the anticipated duration of the project, andadjustments may be made as per the requirements of the solicitation process andsubsequent contractual agreement.

Following contract award, the first operational baseline of NCOP-BMD is anticipated to bereleased in Q3 2025, followed by a second baseline in Q3 2027 and a final baseline in Q22029.
