Australian Army Command Support System (AUSTACSS)

AUSTACSS is designed to enhance the Australian Army's warfighting capability by enabling commanders to more effectively fight tactical land operations. It consists of a computer network with specialist software packages to deliver an integrated command support system for operational and tactical planning and communications.
The system provides the necessary network to allow critical information to be gained and interpreted about the enemy in a quick and timely manner. This allows the best use of our forces and assists them to maintain the initiative.
The 1st Brigade in Darwin will be equipped in the latter part of this decade and user feedback will be used to enhance software functionality and further refine later versions of the system. Further development and fielding of the system will continue into the early part of the next decade.
Celsius Tech Australia is the prime contractor for delivery of the system.
