As Team Lead, Lockheed Martin will collaborate with the Army, drawing on its command-and-control systems engineering and programme management expertise, while partnering with small businesses, non-traditional innovators, and commercial technology providers including Raft and Hypergiant (an Accelint company). The goal is to scale their capabilities to meet the needs of NGC2.

NGC2 is an Army-wide initiative designed to transform digital mission command. By employing a unified data layer, the system will provide a continuous common operating picture and a single, integrated view of the battlefield. This capability will enable commanders to make faster, more informed decisions in dynamic and unpredictable environments.

Lockheed Martin is leveraging Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) and a Modular Open Systems Architecture (MOSA) to build an ecosystem that supports third-party integration, fosters innovation, and accelerates the delivery of new capabilities to the warfighter.

“The NGC2 effort is a central component of the Army’s transformation, and we are so proud to be playing a key role in its development,” said Chandra Marshall, vice president at Lockheed Martin. “We are committed to partnering with the U.S. Army to implement this complex system of systems solution to meet warfighter needs, advancing mission-critical capabilities.”

Lockheed Martin has a long history in the development, integration, and deployment of advanced command and control solutions. The company will support the Army by identifying opportunities for cross-domain reuse and integrating best-of-breed industry technologies.

With extensive experience in evolving architectures and software to MOSA standards, Lockheed Martin continues to bridge legacy systems with scalable, future-ready solutions. According to the company, NGC2 represents not only a step forward in command and control but also a commitment to shaping a more secure future for U.S. forces.
