KBR has been selected as the industry partner to sustain Aggregated Monitoring and Control (AM&C) of Satellite Earth Stations for the Australian Defence Force (ADF).
The program of work will be supported by specialist Australian SME Blacktree Technologies and US based Kratos Defense & Security Solutions.
An initial program of work was awarded to Clearbox Systems, a KBR company which has successfully designed and implemented a remote, centralised monitoring and control system for the earth stations located across Australia.
Clearbox System’s role continues to focus on the provision of remote, centralised operation of SATCOM ground and space assets in Australia and overseas and aggregating operation of these assets.
“We have brought together the best of Clearbox System’s capabilities with KBR’s world leading Deployed ICT skills. Our solution will provide Defence with more efficient, secure and capable communications," said KBR Vice President Asia Pacific, Nic Maan.
