Mission Operations & Intelligence

With our extensive global ISR experience, SMX and our partners effectively operate and maintain fixed, mobile, and temporary Ground Control Stations (GCSs) in response to COCOM-specific requirements. As a Lead Industry Integrator (LII), we mesh proven cloud-scale data, AI/ML, and data analytics capabilities with rapid acquisition and integration strategies to solve problems and assure mission success in an evolving threat environment.

Our space domain solutions span a broad range of mission capabilities, such as equipment and logistics support; intelligence support; ISR payload support; and Research, Development, Test, and Evaluation (RDT&E) support, including designing manned/unmanned ISR platforms to integrate with various systems for space-based operations.

The idea of Non-Traditional ISR (NTISR) began during Operation Iraqi Freedom, when Air Force fighter pilots used their targeting sensors for reconnaissance. NTISR came to mean capturing data from sources that had other intended purposes. Since then, we have expanded that definition.

While traditional ISR depends on interconnected hardware sensors to feed systems with data for analysis, NTISR is more focused on the data itself as well as the cloud or hybrid platforms used to store, analyze, and share information. In essence, data becomes the sensor. Humans still play a crucial role in the process, but NTISR relies heavily on automation for enhanced data.

SMX provides state-of-the-art modeling and simulation tools and technology to provide our discerning clients with the most accurate and realistic simulations possible. Our portfolio includes a wide range of modeling and simulation services; including desktop training, simulated environments for operationally relevant testing, digitally facilitated courseware, scenario-based wargaming simulations, and more. We offer a range of live-virtual-constructive capabilities for immersive environments in support of C6ISR, including Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning (AI/ML), wargaming, commercial apps, and sensor technology. Our technology provides a closed, secure environment for testing exquisite customer capabilities in situations where the operating environment may be sensitive in nature.

SMX also offers our clients digital twin capabilities to create a virtual replica of a physical object or system. These dynamic models can be outfitted with a variety of sensors to monitor performance and component health, predict behavior, and optimize system operation. Our comprehensive modeling and simulation technology can be tailored to meet client needs and improve decision-making, reduce risk, and increase efficiency.
