Systems Engineering and Innovation
Abstract
The Systems Engineering and Innovation project provides (1) systems engineering and analysis support across all other Projects, (2) innovative counterproliferation research, and (3) technical advisory reachback support on Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD) effects and consequences. The systems engineering effort provides research and development with requirements, technology, architecture analyses and proof-of-principle capability necessary for making decisions on strategic planning, research and development investments, new initiatives, cooperation, ventures with new customers, and accomplishment of high-level, short notice special projects. It also conducts the development, validation and fielding of the Arms Control Information System as a part of the U.S. commitment under arms control treaties. The innovative counterproliferation effort conducts research and development to investigate, identify, develop and transition short term, high payoff technologies from Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA), other government agencies, industry, academia and international Science and Technology partners into the respective DTRA research and development programs. The technical reachback effort provides 24 hours, 7 days per week information and analyses on potential impacts of a WMD event to Warfighters and First Responders in consult with DTRA’s Combating WMD Research and Development subject matter experts. This project also provides technical support to the DTRA London Office.
