Information Related Capabilities (IRC)

Abstract

Marine Civil Information Management System (MARCIMS) is a system of systems comprised of people, process and technology that operates in the full Joint, Interagency, Intergovernmental, and Multinational (JIIM) environment. It is a force multiplier for the commander that allows him to leverage the process of Planning, Collection, Consolidation, Analysis, Production, and sharing of civil information in order to support the visualization and understanding of the civil environment to the military commander's decision making process. This program transitions from C2277 to C3772 in FY19. Public Affairs System (PAS) provides the Marine Air Ground Task Force (MAGTF) and the broader Marine Corps the capability to research, understand and affect the information environment. PA Marines and Systems enable commanders at all levels and across the range of military operations to engage domestic and foreign publics whose trust, confidence, and understanding are mission critical. The Public Affairs Systems (PAS) AAP identifies and fields materiel solutions required to research and plan communication initiatives, acquire still and video visual information, produce and disseminate communication products, and assess the effects of communication initiatives within the information environment. The program maintains an evolutionary approach to acquisitions, and leverages commercial industry-standard non-developmental items to provide the best value to the Marine Corps, while keeping PA Marines appropriately equipped to understand and affect the information environment. This effort supports research and evaluate solutions to modernize the Public Affairs Still Acquisition System into a single handheld device with the capability to acquire, edit and transmit still and video imagery and engage publics via traditional and social media. This program transitions from C2277 to C3772 in FY19. The Military Information Support Operations (MISO) Family of Systems (FOS), which consists of the Fly-Away Broadcast System (FABS), Next-Generation Loud Speaker (NGLS), Radio-In-A-Box (RIAB), and Marine Corps SOF Integration Node (MISN), provides the Marine Air Ground Task Force (MAGTF) Commander the capability to conduct planned operations to convey selected information and indicators to foreign adversary, neutral and friendly target audiences to influence their emotions, motives, objective reasoning, providing an operational advantage. The MISO was established in response to multiple Marine Requirements Oversight Council Memorandums, and the approval of a MISO Organizational and Operational (O&O) Concept, 16 June 2015. MISO capabilities are critical to the success of the MAGTF mission, enabling commanders to shape the information environment, counter enemy propaganda, misinformation, disinformation, and adversarial narratives. The Signature Management (SIGMAN) capability will support MAGTF Operations with a baseline capability to include Own-force signature monitoring and assessment, Electromagnetic signature masking and projection, and physical decoys. This program transitions from C2277 to C3772 in FY19.
