Studies & Analysis/MC

Abstract

Project funds the general studies and analysis portion of the Marine Corps Studies System (MCSS). Supports studies and analyses approved for execution in the annual Marine Corps Studies System Master Plan (MCSSMP) including mandated Mission Area Analyses (MAAs), Milestone A, and Pre-Milestone A (Conceptual) Analysis of Alternatives (AoAs), technology assessments, force structure analysis, weapons systems analysis, concept development and analysis, logistics analysis, cost benefit analysis, training assessments, feasibility analysis, and scenario development. MCSS supports the Marine Corps Logistics, the Expeditionary Force Development System (EFDS), and the Combat Development Process (CDP). The Mission Area Analyses (MAA) process provides quantitative and qualitative information utilized by decision makers to initiate improvements in operational concepts, doctrine, force structure, education, training, and procurement. Provide analytical documentation and support to decision makers for resolution of current and future issues identified by operating forces. Utilize Marine Corps Research University to conduct studies and analysis projects in basic and applied research and advanced technology development. Provide funds to the Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) for direct support, technical analyses, and liaison services to assure a sound bridge between the Marine Corps' role in defining Expeditionary Warfare Specialist (EXW)/Seabasing requirements and the SEA 05 role for Future Concepts and Ships Designs for amphibious ships/aircraft, Maritime Prepositioning Force (Future), (MPF (F)), High Speed Connectors, and related systems. Space and Naval Warefare Systems Center (SPAWAR) funded to support Naval Assessment Program to modify and upgrade all DoN war fighting, crisis response and support capabilities and vulnerabilities and provide baseline of future capabilities. Baseline analysis supports Mission Capability Packages (MCPs), Investment Strategy, Joint Capability Areas (JCAs), and the Naval Strategic Plan providing the DoN assessments for future force development.
