The NATO Communications and Information Agency (NCI Agency) was established on 1 July 2012[1] as a result of the merger of the NATO Consultation, Command and Control Agency (NC3A), the NATO ACCS Management Agency (NACMA), the NATO Communications and Information System Services Agency (NCSA), the ALTBMD Programme and elements of NATO HQ.

The establishment of the agency is part of a broader NATO reform.

The new NCI Agency "connects forces, NATO and Nations"- and is NATO's IT and C4ISR (Command, Control, Communications, and Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance; refer to Command and control terminology) provider, including cyber and missile defence.
