Next Gen Biometric Collection Capability
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 20 years, well beyond the standard 3 to 6 years of useful electronic equipment life. NXGBCC supports all three objectives of the National Defense Strategy 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 Joint All Domain Operations (JADO) 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.
