Systems Engineering and Innovation

Abstract

The Systems Engineering and Innovation project provides the research and development operations analysis support to the Agency in understanding, analysis, integration and execution of Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) operational missions. This includes analysis of National, Department of Defense and other Federal agencies' strategic guidance and plans in the combating Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD), Combating Terrorism and Homeland Defense arenas through analytical political-military and technical studies, workshops and conferences. It also provides DTRA on-site support to North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) and Supreme Headquarters Allied Powers, Europe (SHAPE) with a current primary focus on support to U.S. European Command (USEUCOM), NATO, and SHAPE in combating WMD and maintaining the NATO nuclear deterrent. A significant element of this project includes support to Command Elements and the warfighting Combatant Commands (COCOMs) on strategies for reducing/countering the WMD threat in the COCOMs Areas of Responsibility. This project also provides for the solution to the Secretary of Defense mandate for DTRA to account, maintain, report, and track the National Nuclear Weapons Stockpile & Nuclear Weapon-Related Materiel during peacetime, crisis, and wartime. In support of national requirements necessary to maintain a viable nuclear deterrent, the Defense Integration and Management of Nuclear Data Services provides a platform to ensure continued sustainability and viability of the nuclear weapon stockpile.
