PROGRAM BACKGROUND
The U.S. Army TRADOC, Deputy Chief of Staff (DCS), G-2 (Intelligence) mission is to understand, visualize, describe, deliver and assess the operational environment (OE) to reduce risk, and prevent surprise for Today and 2035+. The operational environment (OE) is a composite of the conditions, circumstances, and influences that affect the employment of military forces and bear on the decisions of the unit commander. TRADOC G-2 develops, verifies, validates, accredits, and provides OE products, services, and support on behalf of the TRADOC Deputy Commanding General/Chief of Staff. This process represents an authoritative, validated OE contextual baseline for TRADOC users and operational forces in the areas of training and training development; education; leader development; concept and doctrine development; and capabilities development, integration, and evaluation. TRADOC G-2 manages the development and provision of OE outputs through the command’s OE Enterprise (OEE). The OEE is the Army’s principal means for the delivery of common and/or consistent OE output (in the form of products, services, and/or support) across the key domains of TRADOC’s mission.
The Contractor shall ensure all projects maintain consistency with each other and avoid duplication of effort within the program. The Contractor shall support the TRADOC G-2 executing its mission as TRADOC’s designated Lead for the OE, and provide support and services to TRADOC in the following areas consisting of various tasks: (1) Mission Support, (2) Analysis and Control Element (ACE), whose task is to describe the OE, (3) Operational Environment Center (OEC), whose task is to deliver and assess the OE, (4) Culture and Critical Thinking, whose task is to understand the OE, and (5) optional tasks such as Joint Intelligence Surveillance and Reconnaissance (JISR).
