Forks in the Road for the U.S. Navy

Abstract

This documented briefing seeks to identify for the Navy those impending policy and programmatic decisions that will require thought, analysis, and possibly employment and operational concept changes as well. This research also provides a framework to assist senior Navy decisionmakers in identifying and characterizing possible forks in the road. The research also provides examples of prior forks in the road faced by other organizations for the purposes of illustration. Most important, the framework prioritizes upcoming future decision points for Navy leadership. That prioritization stems from a source removed from the burdens of daily Navy management.
