Information
Organization
SOSCOE is led by a Director from the Framework Nation and governed by a Steering Committee comprising representatives from the Framework and Sponsoring Nations.
The centre is organized into several divisions that reflect its core functions:
Education and Training; Research, Analysis and Lessons Learned; Concept Development and Experimentation; Doctrine and Standardisation; Outreach and Engagement; and Support and Security. Each division is headed by a specialist who manages personnel and resources to deliver the approved Programme of Work.
The Framework Nation hosts the Centre, provides infrastructure and administrative support, and chairs the Steering Committee.
Sponsoring Nations assign personnel, contribute financially to operational costs, and share in governance and strategic decisionmaking.
Headquarters Supreme Allied Commander Transformation oversees accreditation and ensures compliance with NATO policies.
Partnerships and Relationships
To maximize its impact, SOSCOE maintains relationships with NATO’s strategic commands, other Centres of Excellence, national authorities, partner nations, industry and academia.
The Centre coordinates and delineates with organizations such as the Joint Support and Enabling Command, the Multinational Logistics Coordination Centre, the NATO Energy Security COE and the Climate Change and Security COE to avoid duplication.
By cultivating partnerships across sectors and regions, SOSCOE draws on a wide range of expertise and shares its own insights to advance collective security of supply.
Agreements and technical arrangements facilitate participation by nonNATO partners, industry and civil society, ensuring broad engagement while respecting security requirements.
