Session one will focus on lessons learned pertinent to intelligence integration and support during Operations Iraqi Freedom and Enduring Freedom, the Global War on Terror, and domestic contingencies (including recent natural disasters).  Speakers will highlight issues relating to information fusion, analysis, sharing, deployment, tradecraft, and technologies that have enabled or hindered the ability of the IC to contribute meaningfully to these operations and contingencies.  In this context, lessons learned are not past tense, but are contemporary challenges that define the success or failure of intelligence support now and in the future.

The recent and ongoing restructuring of the IC is taking place at the same time as the latest efforts of the Department of Defense to address how it can best meet its future challenges (e.g., the latest Quadrennial Defense Review and the recently-completed Defense Acquisition Performance Assessment). Taking these recent national security initiatives into account, as well as the very real budgetary pressures, this session will examine new acquisition, business, and process models that can be employed more effectively to bring to bear the considerable capabilities of industry, academia, and FFRDCs/UARCs sectors in support of the nation’s national security objectives.
