DoD Modeling and Simulation Management Office
Abstract
Modeling and Simulation (M&S) is a key enabler of the Department of Defense (DoD) activities in communities enabled by M&S such as acquisition, analysis, experimentation, intelligence, planning, test & evaluation, and training. The strategic objective of the DoD Modeling and Simulation Management Office (MSMO) is to execute enterprise management of a robust, defense-wide M&S capability that enhances the value of DoD’s M&S investment through funding and coordinating high-priority activities that: (1) encourage collaboration among M&S stakeholders throughout the DoD; (2) promote outreach and better understanding of defense systems, missions, and operations; (3) support efficiency, reduce duplication, and enhance reuse through improved characterization of M&S programs and resources; and (4) leverage the investment in this National Critical Technology within the DoD, as well as other governmental agencies, industry, and academia. Under the authority of DoD Directive 5134.1, Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics (USD(AT&L)) provides the oversight for this Modeling and Simulation Management Office PE with advice and assistance from a flag-officer level M&S Steering Committee. The PE is executed by MSMO in accordance with DoD Directive 5000.59, Management of Modeling and Simulation; DoD 4120.24-M, DoD Standardization Program (DSP) Policies and Procedures; and DoD Instruction 3200.14, Principles and Operational Parameters of the DoD Scientific and Technical Information Program.
