Haivision Awarded $61.2 Million Contract to Enhance US Navy’s Combat Visualization Technology
Haivision Techniques Inc., a global leader in real-time video streaming and networking solutions, recently announced a significant five-year production contract awarded to its subsidiary, Haivision MCS, by the Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA). The contract, with an estimated total value of $61.2 million USD (approximately $82 million CAD), positions Haivision at the forefront of delivering cutting-edge battle visualization and video distribution systems for the US Navy’s Surface Combatant Fleet.
Under this contract, Haivision MCS will provide the US Navy with a comprehensive suite of high-performance video processing solutions for mission-critical display, including video transcoding, attic, and distribution components. These systems will be integrated into the Navy’s Combat Information Centers (CICs) on various surface combatant vessels, enhancing situational awareness and mission planning capabilities. The advanced visualization technology is designed to support the Navy’s next-generation combat systems across different types of vessels, including AEGIS Destroyers, Aircraft Carriers, Amphibious Ships, Frigates, Littoral Combat Ships, and the future United States Coast Guard Cutters.
This award further solidifies Haivision’s successful partnership with the US Navy’s CANES (Consolidated Afloat Networks and Enterprise Services) program, where Haivision’s real-time video encoding, transcoding, recording, and playback technology is already being utilized for ship-wide video distribution.
The contract underscores the strength and reliability of Haivision’s core technologies and showcases the synergies achieved through the acquisition of CineMassive in 2021. The integration of CineMassive’s Command 360 collaborative visualization platform into Haivision’s offerings has significantly enhanced the company’s ability to deliver innovative solutions for complex defense applications.
“We are honored to continue our partnership with the US Navy and to be entrusted with this crucial responsibility,” said Robert Kaufman, Vice President of Strategic Systems at Haivision MCS. “This award is a testament to the excellence of our technology and our dedicated team. We are committed to delivering high-quality systems that will support the Navy’s mission and enhance the operational effectiveness of its Surface Combatant Fleet.”
