Afghanistan National Development Assessment System (ANDAS)

Abstract

In this report, we discuss an assessment methodology developed to assist in determining whether we are winning or losing the global war of terror in Operation Enduring Freedom. The assessment system developed is based on metrics and was developed with the support of the Operational level staff in Afghanistan. From the start of the operation, the Combined Joint Task Force - 180 in Afghanistan needed a methodology to assess their current situation. The system had to provide them with a means to convey their status to higher levels of command and support decisions on future necessary effects required by subordinates. In late 2002, tie command asked a group from the Information Technology Operations Center (ITOC) from the US Military Academy to develop a system to assist in this process.
