The CECOM Life Cycle Management Command aspires to be the Army's premier Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (C4ISR) capabilities provider. A subordinate of the Army Materiel Command (AMC), CECOM and its strategic partners are vital members of the new Materiel Enterprise, providing C4ISR systems and sustainment to Army forces through the Army Force Generation (ARFORGEN) process.
The 2005 Base Realignment and Closure decision relocated CECOM to Aberdeen Proving Ground, Maryland as part of implementing 2005 Base Realignment and Closure law. Its former home, Fort Monmouth, New Jersey will close September 15, 2011.
CECOM has approximately 8,500 personnel across five organizations.
CECOM is the warfighter's one-stop source for support of the communications-electronics systems and equipment they carry. From setting up headquarters and command and tactical operations centers in remote areas to installing and maintaining communications systems in vehicles and aircraft, CECOM supports warfighters throughout training activities, field support for modifications and upgrades, and logistical expertise to ensure the right equipment is in the right place at the right time.
The C4ISR Materiel Enterprise is a subset of the Army's Materiel Enterprise; one of four Army Enterprises, which also include: Human Capital; Readiness; and Services and Infrastructure. [1]
