Studies & Analysis/MC
Abstract
Marine Corps Requirements Oversight Council (MROC) established Operations Analysis Directorate (OAD) as the sole operations research, analytic support, and studies management program for the Marine Corps Study System (MCSS). MCSS analysis is achieving greater efficiency, productivity, and innovation through operations research methodologies such as: operational analysis, statistical analysis, multi-objective decision methods, optimization, cost analysis, and a wide range of computer-based models and combat simulations insuring the optimization of resources now and in the future. Analyses spans the spectrum of conflict in a Joint, Interagency, Intergovernmental, and Multinational (JIIM) context to inform critical senior level decision makers of current and future national security issues and provides unique and distinct analytic capabilities that enable the collaboration and sharing of analyses that reduces the duplication of topics that are of broad interest. MCSS is an integral part of the Marine Corps and Joint Chiefs decision-making processes to organize, man, train, equip, sustain, and transform resources from the current to the future force. This program element has been revised into two specialized analytical divisions: (1) External Analysis Division (EAD) - responsible for providing joint external analysis is the Marine Corps' sole representative in the joint modeling arenas. Provides deployed on site professional operations analysis support to Special Purpose MAGTFs in CENTCOM and AFRICOM. (2) Combat Development Analysis Division responsible for executing a select portfolio of studies for senior leadership, Capabilities Based Assessment (CBA) and Marine Corps Enterprise Integration Plan (MCEIP).
