One of Bruhn NewTech's main solutions is the operational software application NBC-ANALYSIS, a computerised Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear (CBRN) hazard prediction, CBRN intelligence decision support and warning and reporting tool designed to provide mainly military (but in certain case's civilian) commanders with rapid and accurate information using real time reports from source level to higher commands. The program fully automates the CBRN calculations laid down in NATO's Warning and Reporting publications, AEP-45 and ATP-45. We at Bruhn NewTech ensure our software is always compatible with these internationally agreed protocols of both important reference documents.
NBC-ANALYSIS is capable of producing very rapid (typically less than 30 seconds) hazard warning templates on a wide variety of electronic map types. This visual template is the perfect tool for delivering immediate hazard warnings and organizing initial response to a CBRN incident while more data on agent type and quantity, delivery means and actual (as opposed to forecast) meteorological conditions can be collected.
We have successfully integrated a number of detailed prediction plume models to operate alongside the standard ATP-45 output of NBC-ANALYSIS. Some of these integrated versions of the core program enable more detailed prediction of hazard downwind distances and effects to be produced for a more considered response after the initial warning and evacuation actions have been completed.

Today, NBC-ANALYSIS is in use in 28 NATO nations including the US and UK, various NATO commands including the NATO School and several Partnership for Peace (PfP) countries.
The system has been deployed with the Military in many international operations from Desert Storm to the second Gulf war in Iraq .
The results are provided very fast and reliably in the automated process. When the operator is out for a minute, even I - as the CBRN Staff Officer with limited training - can handle the system. [CBRN Staff Officer, Coalition Joint Force Headquarters]
The units can update their own positions and transmit these directly into my system at the command level and the MET Centre can do the same with all the weather reports, which are distributed directly to all users. All defence forces' CBRN Centres are in coninuous contact with me via the communication module. [CBRN Defence Officer, National Area Control Centre]
