Measuring the Effectiveness of Special Operations
Abstract
This report documents research and analysis conducted as part of a project entitled Special Operations Forces (SOF) Measures of Effectiveness, sponsored by U.S. Army Special Operations Command. The purpose of the project was to develop a system of metric-capture and evidence-based assessments to evaluate the success (or failure) of various special operations missions and demonstrate how Army special operations forces contribute to theater and national security objectives. A companion volume - Linda Robinson, Daniel Egel, and Ryan Andrew Brown, Measuring the Effectiveness of Special Operations: Appendixes, Santa Monica, Calif.: RAND Corporation, RR-2504/1-A, 2019 - provides the appendixes.
