Counter Intelligence - Human Intelligence Architecture Modernization Program, Intelligence Operations Now (CHAMPION)
Abstract
The Joint Requirements Oversight Council (JROC) validated the capability need for CHAMPION in FY 2006. The outcome will provide improved capabilities for the counter-intelligence, human-intelligence and special forces communities of interest. These improvements will provide an accessible and actionable information system for management of the CI/HUMINT collection, mission planning and asset management information. The capabilities include technologies for integration of structured and un-structured reports, entity extraction and tagged geospatial information. The primary outputs demonstrated to the users and evaluated in the Military Utility Assessment are: 1) joint data standard for human domain; 2) CHAMPION information collection tool and associated concept of operations (CONOPS), tactics, techniques and procedures (TTPs); 3) CI-HUMINTmission management tools with federated search capability and data replication/access across multiple networks; and 4) integrated geo-tagged photo extraction, CIHUMINT data access tools for multi-intelligence discipline fusion. The efficiencies to be gained are; 1) improved effectiveness of HUMINT operations; 2) elimination of Human domain data stovepipes; 3) joint human domain data standard; 4) improved web enabled data access across multiple networks and security levels; 5) Joint CONOPs/ TTPs; 6) geo-spatially enabled mission and asset management tools, 7) prototype voice biometrics standards, architecture and operational concepts. The transition strategy is to incorporate CHAMPION capabilities into the Distributed Common Ground Station Army program of record (POR) and PdM CHARCS. The sponsoring Combatant Command (CoCom) is the U. S. Central Command (CENTCOM). Other organizations involved as participants, users of capabilities, and/or observers include USSOCOM, USJFCOM, Defense Intelligence Agency, and the National Security Agency. The lead service is the Army.
