The division provides reliable analytic tools and products enabling senior leaders to make informed and defendable resourcing decisions.

    • An evaluation of the capability and capacity of the SO sustainment force required to execute the NDS (Objective Force), and the supporting analytic data.
    • Generate strategy-to-task relationships from strategic-level documents in order to correctly portray global SOF operations and emerging requirements.
