Army Tactical Command and Control System (ATCCS)
In April 2003 the tilte of the Project Manager for ATCCS was changed to PM Ground Combat Command and Control (GCC2). The name ATCCS is no longer used. It is now included under the Army Battle Command System (ABCS) title.
Previous Information
The Army Tactical Command and Control System (ATCCS) was to be linked directly to Army Global Command and Control System (AGCCS), providing a framework of seamless connectivity from brigade to corps. ATCCS was the linchpin between AGCCS and Force XXI Battle Command Brigade-and-Below (FBCB2), creating a holistic, seamless integration of battle command from individual platforms to echelons above corps (EAC).
The ATCCS systems needed a standard users interface. Simple tasks such as File Print, File Open, File Close, File Save, and File Send were not readily available to the soldier operators of the ATCCS systems. For soldiers who grew up on Windows and Macintosh computers where these functions were readily available, there was no valid reason for the ATCCS systems to be different. Additionally, the ATCCS systems were not even uniform among themselves in performing these basic functions. This meant increased training time when transitioning from one TOC duty position to another.
