Multilateral Interoperability ProgrammeIntroduction (1)
• Looking for a “Common Understanding” of the Battlespace.
• “Interoperability of information” is essential.
• Information across national and language boundaries.
• From tactical to operational and strategic levels.
• Interaction with NGO.

Multilateral Interoperability ProgrammeIntroduction (2)
• The “Shared Awareness” implies “Shared Information”.
• A common language.• AIM: Deliver an assured
capability for interoperability of information
• Combined joint operations• C2IEDM & JC3IEDM
(STANAG 5525).• Covers War, CRO and DAT.

Multilateral Interoperability ProgrammeAim
• “The aim of the Multilateral Interoperability Programme (MIP) is to achieve international interoperability of Command and Control Information Systems (C2IS) at all levels from corps to battalion, or lowest appropriate level, in order to support multinational (including NATO), combined and joint operations and the advancement of digitization in the international arena.”

Multilateral Interoperability ProgrammeMIP Defined (1)
• What it is and what it provides:
– Materiel / Combat developer forum.
– Mature Process. – Consensus-based Technical
Specs.– Venue for international
interoperability testing– Coordinates synchronization of
materiel fielding plans– System-independent capability
based on information interoperability

Objective of the Initiative
To define the To define the minimumminimum operational and operational and technical requirements to be included technical requirements to be included within system specification which will within system specification which will allow national C2 systems to interoperate allow national C2 systems to interoperate by the automatic exchange of data i.e. by the automatic exchange of data i.e. Level 5 of System Interconnection.Level 5 of System Interconnection.

ADVANTAGES OF JC3IEDM
• Maximum reuse providing cost avoidance • Relatively simple, understandable structure with
broad applicability• Central concepts have been stable for 12 years• Multinational pedigree• General, based on military experience (Army Tactical
Command and Control Information System - ATCCIS); Easy to extend in response to operational data requirements
• Joint interfaces (Air Tasking Order (ATO)(NATO) Chemical Biological Radiological Nuclear (CBRN)(NATO) Maritime Mine Warfare (MMW)(NATO))
