JT Mission Assessment Studies

Abstract

Assessment Program, provides capability based planning assessment for Joint Capabilities Integration and Development System (JCIDS), conducts analysis to affect warfighting capability trades and enterprise resources, identifies needs, gaps, and overlaps, and assesses alternative solutions to Joint needs. Supports both the development and use of modeling, simulation and analytically based warfare and provider business analyses and analytic tools that provide the basis for decision making with respect to Concepts of Operations (CONOPS); Command, Controls, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (C4ISR) systems (FORCENet); warfare systems (Sea Strike, Sea Shield, and Sea Basing) and their architectures; force structure; and the Navy's core "organize, train, and equip mission" (the Warfare and Provider Enterprises). Manages Office of the Chief of Naval Operations (OPNAV) support to Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD)/Navy's analytic agenda. Provides overarching Planning, Programming and Budgeting System (PPBES) analyses and guidance for Planning, Programming, Budgeting and Execution System (PPBES) which provides gap analysis and investment strategy and Total Obligation Authority (TOA) allocation. Provides independent capability analysis directly to Chief of Naval Operations (CNO) and assists in structuring follow-on OPNAV analyses. The program coordinates Navy's position for the Enhanced Planning Process and conducts Net Assessments. This program serves as the lead campaign analysis for Office of the Chief of Naval Operations (OPNAV) and Chief of Naval Operations Investment Strategy assessments, all of which prove analytical underpinnings/basis for programmatic decisions of the Navy's top leadership regarding the integration of all Navy warfare and support requirements. This program supports " A Cooperative Strategy for 21st Century Seapower 21" as modified by the CNO Maritime Strategy which charts a course for the Navy, Coast Guard and Marine Corps to work collectively with each other and international partners to prevent crises from occurring or reacting quickly should one occur to avoid negative impact to the United States. This program is dual-hated as the head of CNO's Capability Analysis Group and serves the CNO directly as an independent assessor providing a broad-view perspective across the Navy staff apart from resource sponsors, with an integrated look at both warfighting and warfighting support programs. Program supports the world class modeling efforts to attain a level of modeling and simulation capability that is world class and establishes OPNAV as a leader in the Department of Defense (DoD) modeling and simulation community. Provides the CNO alternatives in assessing the implications imbedded within resource decisions in a quantified context of costs versus capability versus risk. This program provides independent analytic support to Navy leadership in conjunction with various executive level decision forums. The Assessment Program develops tools and analytical methodologies that assist in evaluating Navy programs and provides technical leadership for the analysis functional area of Naval Modeling and Simulation.
