Tactical Mission Command (TMC)

Abstract

Tactical Mission Command (TMC) is a family of systems with an enduring mission to provide mission command computing capabilities to Army commanders and their staffs, consisting primarily of a user-customizable Common Operating Picture (COP) enabled with real-time collaboration. These capabilities, together with Voice-Over-Internet-Protocol, combine to provide real-time situational awareness and decision support capabilities across the formation (battalion through Army Service Component Command). A key component of the Mission Command (MC) capability that TMC delivers is the ability to layer information from multiple warfighting functions on the same map display and share that among command posts, allowing all parties to have a common view with the command. While these capabilities are currently provided by Command Post of the Future (CPOF), TMC is now engaged in transitioning to the web-based Command Post Computing Environment (CPCE).
