CMDR COE hosted Coordination Board Meeting of MCCE
Date: (29-01-2025)
The meeting had been organised upon request for support from the BGR Logistic Support Command.
The MCCE is a multinational military movement brokerage centre located on the Eindhoven Airbase at Eindhoven Airport in the Netherlands. The centre is staffed by military and civilian personnel from the participating countries. The main purpose of the MCCE is coordinating and optimising the usage of military and charter airlift, sealift and land movement assets of the armed forces of the member countries. MCCE provides coordination support to EU and/or NATO operations.
The MCCE, manned 24/7, acts as a catalyser for strategic lift issues. Its focus is mainly on strategic movements, but not exclude operational and tactical movements.
MCCE also provides coordination support to operations of organisations such as the UN to improve efficiency and to provide cost saving alternatives for member nations through identifying available assets, advertising these assets, and then coordinating their use to the maximum extent possible. This coordination support will include requests for support to Peace Support Operations, Disaster Relief and Civil emergency crises.
