GMV and its EUCCIS system strengthen Europe’s response capacity during MILEX 25 exercises
The reliability and operational value of the European Union Command and Control Information System (EUCCIS), developed by GMV, was proven once again during the second phase of the MILEX 25 military exercises, which took place from November 3rd to December 5th. On this occasion, the Force Headquarters (FHQ) was established at a military base in a European Union (EU) country, while the EU Military Planning and Conduct Capability (MPCC) in Brussels maintained its role as the Operational Headquarters (OHQ).
In this distributed scenario, the EUCCIS system facilitated secure exchanges of information between the two command levels, as well as creation of a Common Operational Picture (COP), which is an essential element for coordinating operations. A new feature had also been added to the system to allow collaborative editing of planning documents by the two headquarters, notably improving operational efficiency and the user experience.
This second phase was the culmination of a series of exercises that began in the spring, when the first iteration of MILEX 25 took place from March 25th to April 10th, with its focus on validation of procedures and tools. These two phases have been used to evaluate and strengthen the MPCC’s strategic, operational, and tactical capabilities, including its ability to plan and execute operations under realistic conditions.
With its participation in MILEX 25, GMV has further demonstrated its commitment to European defense, security, and peace, through international cooperation and development of advanced technological solutions.
