Command and control portal as a unified way of collaboration of different staff cells in army headquarters on operational level as well as cooperation with external civil organisations

Civil-Military Co-operation is commander's tool allowing achieving aims of the non-military operations, which are often carried out in parallel with those of warfare, in order to coordinate these two lines of action and to highlight priority for military purposes. Although officers are well trained to perform assigned duties they cannot deal without specially designed tools and modern technology. Instant collection and dissemination of information, efficient collaboration and common situational awareness are factors needed in order to secure effective cooperation with both military and civilian organisations. This can be achieved only by study of NATO doctrines and concepts, such as NNEC and EU NEC. Based on that study, a specially designed web based information system can be introduced that is scalable, flexible, interoperable and extendable. HMS Web Portal JASMINE is a solution for army requirements which highly increases commander's effectiveness on operational level where cooperation with civilian organisations is essential in time of war and peace.
