Traditionally described as "professional electronics", the Thales group's businesses are primarily dedicated to critical information systems for defence, aerospace, transport and civil security applications.
Thales provides its customers with all the key functions in the critical information loop, from detection and processing to transmission and distribution, and including command and control, decision-support and operational analysis.
Today, information dominance is central to military doctrine and planning. As a result, critical information systems have become a major priority for armed forces and governements. Secure information management is also vital to many of Thales's civil customers' operations. This is the case in the transport sector, particularly air transport, the Group's second largest market, and in growing markets for civil and homeland security, where customers include civil administrations and major corporations.
Inteoperability is also a top customer priority and a key feature of the systems developed by the Group. Thales is positioned as major prime contractor for interoperable systems to support coordinated action by all the players in the battlespace. Thales is playing a key role in the process of transformation that the armed forces are deploying to fully exploit network-enabled capabilities and the possibilities of new information and communication technologies.
Rapid technological progress and the growing complexity of equipment, systems and platforms have had a profound impact on customers' requirements. Today, customers are tending to express their needs in terms of missions, capabilities and comprehensive solutions.
