Infovalorization as a Vector of Success
Over the past five years, France has replaced Russia as the world’s second-largest arms exporter, still far behind the United States1.
While this increase in export volume is certainly linked to the current geopolitical context, international conditions alone do not fully explain the success of French military equipment abroad.
There are essentially three main reasons for this international success:
- Efforts in weapons design, which are viewed as components embedded within a global, systemic, and integrated operational framework.
- The versatility of platforms for land vehicles and aircraft—versatility that generates substantial savings throughout the product lifecycle.
- The infovalorization of all strategic data.
Take for example the “SCORPION” program led by the French Directorate General of Armaments for the army’s armored vehicles.
(SCORPION stands for “Synergy of Contact Reinforced by Versatility and Infovalorization”).
Each word in the acronym carries significant weight, granting each vehicle in the program multichannel and multifaceted communication capabilities within an operational bubble—with intelligent and dynamic selection of the data exchanged.
Infovalorization is therefore the key to the effectiveness of exchanges in terms of both meaning and content.
This principle of infovalorization naturally extends from design, to manufacturing, and into operational usage.
At a time when the 4,500 defense suppliers must shift into “wartime economy” mode, it is crucial that each equips themselves with infovalorization tools to identify core requirements, risk levels, and weak signals that could generate risks. These methods are then deployed on secure exchange platforms.
These systemic tools are now off-the-shelf and ensure optimal security for data at the strategic level.
The Baulders control platform, thanks to its design and intelligent interface, fits perfectly with the concept of infovalorization—where each piece of information is valued individually within its systemic context. Baulders enables the secure and cost-effective deployment of new industrial processes.
