Next Gen Biometric Collection Capability (MIP)

Abstract

The Next Generation Biometric Collection Capability (NXGBCC) is the replacement for the Biometrics Automated Toolset - Army (BAT-A) Program of Record (POR) which has been supporting overseas contingency operations for over 19 years, well beyond the standard 3 to 6 years of useful electronic equipment life. NXGBCC supports all three objectives of the National Defense to increase lethality, enhance International Cooperation, and improve business practices. NXGBCC initiates the data flow to the DoD Authoritative Biometrics Identification System (ABIS) and Military Intelligence systems. NXGBCC consists of an expeditionary biometric data management system called the Local Trusted Source (LTS), biometric static collection kits with palm and credential badge capability, and biometric mobile collection kits. NXGBCC will tactically collect, match, store, reference, and share biometric signatures and contextual data while providing data analysis capability at all echelons; enabling forces in competition, armed conflict, and re-competing in a Multi-Domain Operations (MDO) environment. NXGBCC processes Enemy Prisoners of War (EPWs), Displaced Persons, and Refugees. It also assists Operations in the Support in Consolidation Areas. NXGBCC enables commanders to protect their force, deny enemy movement, increase freedom of maneuver, protect civilian populations, manage detainees identities, and to defeat near-peer unconventional threats. FY 2020 funding for NXGBCC previously reflected in project BI7 was moved to project FL5. Justification: Prior year funding for NXGBCC was previously included within project BI7. For FY 2020, NXGBCC funding is now reflected within project FL5. The $2.000 million of FY 2020 Base Funding in FL5 will complete the prototype selection process via the Other Transaction Agreement (OTA) started in FY 2018. The program office will complete operational testing, interoperability testing, and New Equipment Training (NET) development.
