NPC is the NATO Programming Centre, part of the NATO Communications and Information Agency NCI Agency. The NPC is responsible for system support and maintenance of NATO's Air Command and Control Systems (Air C2). Amongst these systems is also the NATO Air Command and Control System ACCS.

The centre is located in Glons, a village close to the cities of Tongeren and Liège, Belgium. It employs nearly 200 people. It works closely with the NATO ACCS Management Agency NACMA for the ACCS Programme and with the NATO Support Agency NSPA for the maintenance of various Air C2 buffer systems.
