Methodology for Chemical or Biological Defense Capability Set Analyses

Abstract

The Joint Requirements Office for Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear Defense (JRO-CBRND) commissioned a potential series of defense capability set analyses to determine integrated capability sets for various chemical or biological (CB) threats. Integrated capability sets are a combination of capabilities and capability attributes that together create a layered defense against a given threat. This Institute for Defense Analyses paper summarizes the methodology we developed to produce recommended integrated capability sets and broadly describes how the methodology can be repeated in support of future capability set analyses.
