Needs Analysis Process
Identify ISR Tasks & Requirements
• Identify ISR Tasks and Requirements
• Derived from COCOM, JTF, JFCC, ODNI Documented Requirements &
Priorities
Develop & Prioritize ISR Needs
• Develop ISR Needs for Near, Mid and Far-Terms
• Include Measures of Effectiveness (MOE) & Measures of Performance
(MOP)
• Include Impact on Missions/Taskings
Identify ISR Capability Gaps & Shortfalls
• Compile Gaps to include missing and limited capabilities
Consolidate & Prioritize ISR Capability Gaps
• Work with MAJCOM Staffs, Flight Plan Needs Panel, Flight Plan Board and
Flight Plan Council for final gap prioritization
• Group like gaps into highest priority focus areas (AF ISR Blue Slides)

Solutions Analysis Process
Non-Materiel Solutions Development (AF ISR Agency led)
• Identify appropriate gaps
• Identify contributing factors across DOTmLPF
• Identify possible solutions for contributing factors across
DOTmLPF
• Assign OPR/OCRs
• Develop Plans of Action and Milestones
• Keep close coordination with Materiel Solutions Development
• Identify needs for Materiel Solutions
• Quantify materiel solution impacts
Materiel Solutions Development (AFMC led)
• Work with AFMC to support Development Planning (DP) process

FEEDBACK
•
USD(I): “A Home-Run”
•
SECAF: “Though a work in progress, this will be a useful tool that will help
us ensure ISR is prioritized and right-sized”
•
COMACC: “Keeping needs of Warfighter is key for existing requirements &
supporting acquisition of new capabilities”
•
AFSPC/CC: “Integration of A2 Flight Plan into my own staffs processes is a
major step in the future definition of our space capability”
•
AFSOC/CV: “We fully support this normalized process”
•
AMC/CV: “Applaud the effort, probably about 4-5 years over due”
•
AETC/CV: “Ambitious plan, but much needed”
•
AFMC/CC: “Main idea in capability based assessment is looking at ‘system
of systems’, therefore all aspects of capability, platform, manpower,
processing and dissemination are addressed”
•
USAFE/CV: “I applaud this comprehensive ISR vision”
