Command, Control, and Intelligence Systems definition
Command, Control, and Intelligence Systems or "C2I Systems" means systems delivered under Programs of Record that provide command, control, and intelligence processing exclusively in support of operational commanders and their warfighting forces. C2I systems integrate information across a commander’s area of operations, including information provided by C2I systems under the operations control of Unified Combatant Commands (UCC’s), Services, and Agencies (U/S/As). C2I Systems are employed by a commander in planning, directing, coordinating, and controlling forces and operations in the accomplishment of the mission. Intelligence systems are employed to manage data gathering, to obtain and process the data, to interpret the data, and to provide reasoned judgments to decision makers as a basis for action. Eligible C2I Systems fuse C2 and Intelligence capabilities, and thereby provide the commanders and staff at all levels with the information needed to derive a consistent picture of their battle space in order to conduct coordinated and synchronized operations.
