2iC Solution: The Unique Benefits Explained

The leading digital interoperability solution for the battlespace

Defence forces and suppliers worldwide understand the digital interoperability challenge only too well. Yet despite great ambition and expense, the modern battlespace is littered with digital devices and systems that don’t operate together effectively.

Too often it falls on the human to have to deal with slow, complex, manual connections and to act as the glue between systems in isolated silos.

But now, with 2iC’s unique and innovative software, there’s a proven, secure solution — one that achieves integration and compatibility in a digital world, with greatly reduced time to market and less risk.

Global-leading, proven solution

The 2iC solution is the global-leading solution for achieving secure digital interoperability in the battlespace.

It is in use and proven with 2iC defence sector customers worldwide, including the UK MoD, the US Department of Defense, the Australian Department of Defence and the New Zealand Defence Force.

  • Delivers assured, secure digital battlespace interoperability by creating a unique software layer.
  • Digitally automates the exchange of mission-critical and actionable information between commanders, operators and equipment across land, sea and air.
  • Liberates and empowers human capability for improved mission outcomes.
  • Software-only solution requiring no investment in additional hardware.

  • 2iC interoperability software layer sits discreetly on virtually any number of military platforms, systems or devices (multi-domain, and trusted and untrusted).
  • Allows rapid integration and automatic exchange of mission-critical and actionable information across land, sea and air.
  • Offers true agility as 2iC workflows can be adapted quickly to respond to operational, personnel and equipment changes.
  • Secure, scalable and future-proof: works with legacy, current and future systems.

  • Delivers two-way communications in low-power computing and denied, degraded, intermittent and limited (DDIL) environments.
  • Effectively delivers the benefits of IoT (the Internet of Things) when there is no viable internet.

  • Based on open standards and agnostic of platform, bearer and original equipment manufacturer (OEM) or prime contractor.
  • 2iC’s unique set of transformational tools allows rapid integration and interoperability of the widest range of systems, equipment and devices.

Rapid connectivity and dynamics flexibility in a future-proof solution

With 2iC’s unique software layer, traditional barriers between isolated silos can be quickly and securely crossed to enable dramatically improved military capability.

Using the 2iC solution, in only a few days, both legacy and current digital systems can be adapted to expose a range of reusable services — made possible by the 2iC-invented Lean Services Architecture — that can be accessed and used in an open architecture. (Similarly, new systems can be added just as easily in the future.)

These reusable services can then be coordinated to achieve significant business outcomes.

Using 2iC’s visualisation tools, a non-technical user can define the required behaviour in minutes and redeploy over the air to all participants in seconds, rapidly changing the interoperability as and when required.

All this dynamic flexibility is achieved securely, while protecting supplier IPR (Intellectual Property Rights).
