About and services
The situation centre is the central point for information, assessment and coordination.
Our mandate
The situation centre brings together information from many sources and presents it in a consistent, traceable situation picture. In doing so it supports participating offices in preparing their decisions. The decisions themselves remain with the responsible offices.
Ways of working
Our work follows a clear, recurring process:
- Collect: Reports and sources are taken in and checked continuously.
- Assess: Information is classified, condensed and compared with thresholds.
- Align: The situation picture is shared with participating offices and updated jointly.
- Document: Every classification and basis for decision is recorded and can be traced later.
Services
Monitoring
Observation of relevant sources around the clock, with defined escalation levels and automatic alerts when thresholds are exceeded.
Assessment
Structured assessment of the situation based on verified reports, including a classification of the reliability of each source.
Coordination
Alignment between participating offices over established channels, with clear responsibilities and documented feedback paths.
The situation centre in numbers
Reliability comes from clear procedures, not from haste.
