Calian Backs NATO Readiness Across 75 Major Exercises

For more than 15 years, Calian has supported NATO training and readiness initiatives across Europe and allied nations, helping forces prepare for operational challenges spanning land, air, maritime, cyber and multi-domain environments.

The company currently serves as a prime contractor supporting NATO's Joint Warfare Centre (JWC), providing subject matter expertise for operational and strategic-level exercises. Calian also supports NATO's Joint Force Training Centre (JFTC) through exercise design, scenario development, training delivery and operational support.

Over that period, Calian has supported more than 75 large-scale NATO exercises. Recent examples include Exercise STEADFAST DETERRENCE, a command-post exercise involving all 32 NATO Allies focused on threats in the Arctic and High North, where more than 30 Calian personnel supported planning, delivery and execution. Calian also supported Exercise STEADFAST FOXTROT, a NATO wargame examining how forces can be rapidly deployed, reinforced and sustained across Europe in contested environments.

The company has recently secured contracts supporting operational planning training for the Netherlands Joint Force Command in The Hague, Joint All-Domain Operations Centre training support to NATO Joint Force Command, and support for NATO's Future Nuclear Exercise Environment at SHAPE.

"Modern conflict demands more than preparation. It requires agility, rapid decision-making and the confidence to operate effectively in uncertain and fast-moving environments," said Roch Pelletier, Regional Vice President, Calian Defence Europe/U.K. "Our role is to help ensure NATO training reflects the realities of today's operational landscape, equipping forces and leaders with the skills needed to respond successfully in increasingly complex scenarios."
