Technical Intelligence
Abstract
The Technical Intelligence Program supports strategic intelligence analysis by providing global science and technology (S&T) awareness and context in order to inform Defense technology, engineering & acquisition planning for decision-makers in an uncertain future. The program’s primary objectives are to 1) Identify and contextualize emerging disruptive technologies (EDT) for senior leadership; and 2) Track global technology trends that challenge fundamental assumptions underpinning current operations and shaping the future of war. Leveraging technology watch and horizon scanning (TW/HS) tools, and scouting areas of global technology development, the program’s end-state is to inform senior leadership on where best to invest resources in technology areas to maintain or regain global competitive advantage. The program complements this with tailored technical assessments that identify the military relevance, research opportunities, and policy recommendations for emerging and disruptive technologies. In FY 2018, $5.253 million is being executed for this effort, but it is erroneously shown under project code 534. This effort is shown funded in FY 2019 and out under project code 535.
