ABOUT US
OUR MISSION
Bring the best technology available to the Warfighter as quickly as possible by providing an open environment where industry, academia, and Government can engage in innovation, development, and rapid prototyping of emerging technologies
The Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Cyber, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (C5ISR) Center is one of the eight science and technology domains within the U.S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command (DEVCOM).
Headquartered at Aberdeen Proving Ground, Maryland, the C5ISR Center features more than 1.4 million square feet of state-of-the-art laboratories, test beds, and integration facilities. These feature extended connectivity to national labs and other military research organizations across the country.
Using agile and adaptive acquisition processes and a Modular Open Systems Approach (MOSA) for system architectures, the Army aims to layer “plug-and-play” solutions continuously as new technologies emerge. Our Open Innovation Lab (OIL) is a collaborative space that breaks down common barriers, granting us access to innovation resources beyond our own organization and keeping us on the cutting-edge of technological advancements. We are depending on YOU to show us your best compatible technologies and ideas!
