Enabling a Responsive and Agile Intelligence Enterprise

This paper, combined with the previous AFCEA paper on funding constraints, serves to sharpen Community focus on demonstrable transformation programs and activities. The ICA Year 3 work builds on ICA-2 efforts (e.g., Enterprise Integration) and is fostering bottom-up multi-agency partnering on integrated ISR operations policy, directives, business process, performance, R&D, and Acquisition for the Integrated Intelligence Architecture (I2A). Mission-oriented ops-driven activities from the Community's Integrated Collection Management (ICM) program, led by NGA, in cells within the Community's collection & production execution sectors are developing processes to interact with DIOCC/NICC requirements strategies and adjudication. Planning is underway by the ICM program to deliver a Collection Space (C-Space) prototype model via the Collaborative Collection Work Environment (CCWE) Test Bed; the CCWE will influence & interact with A-Space to support and motivate the continuous transformation of the Community into a powerful integrated foundational ISR force by bridging production and collection execution operations with upstream and downstream requirements, adjudication, and reporting dissemination functions. These transformational activities respect and will evolve Joint doctrine. Joint Pub doctrinal components of Collection Requirements Management (CRM--influenced by JIOC transformation), Collection Operations Management (COMinfluenced by DIOCC & NICC), and a new doctrinal component characterized as Mission Execution Management (MEM--motivated by emerging ICM-driven Collaborative Collection Strategy collection/exploitation operations) builds upon the heroic transformational feats of past and current visionaries. These mission-oriented catalysts will continue to sculpture the emerging end-to-end integration framework that will promote ISR operations capabilities at a pace likened to the incredible evolution of the Internet and Global Positioning System. Concurrent CIO/CTO activities, when driven by these mission-oriented process drivers and funded through MIP/NIP allocations to formally connected NRP, GDIP, NGP, CCP, etc programs, will serve to form a comprehensive Integrated ISR operations enterprise enabled by a robust I2A. A potential taxonomy characterizing this transformation: 1) Doctrine: CRM, COM, MEM; 2) Mission: Integrated ISR Operations; 3) Mission Environment: Integrated ISR Enterprise; and 4) Community Architecture: Integrated Intelligence Architecture (I2A).
