  1. Assessing Transition of SecurityOperations in Afghanistan Project Proposal 11 February 2010

  2. Agenda • Background • Problem Description • Preliminary Requirements • Technical Approach • Expected Results • Project Plan and Deliverables

  3. Background • September 11 terrorist attacks • 7 Oct 01: Coalition forces begin campaign in Afghanistan • Goal of Current Coalition • Rebuild Afghanistan (self-gov’t, self-defense, care for citizens) • Goal of International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) • Transfer lead for security operations to Afghan government • Goal of Combined Security Transition Command-Afghanistan (CSTC-A) • Field effective Afghanistan National Security Forces (ANSF)

  4. Problem Description • Deputy Director, Force Integration and Training (CJ7) / CSTC-A defined five lines of operation (LOOs) that support the goal of transferring security operations • Accelerate ANSF growth • Achieve security for the Afghan population • Marginalize malign actors • Achieve legitimate, responsive, and accountable governance • Facilitate community development • Develop metrics and an accompanying decision support tool to measure progress against the five LOOs • Stakeholders • Force Integration and Training cell of NTM-A/CSTC-A (sponsor) • NTM-A/CSTC-A • Coalition military leadership • U.S. government leadership

  5. Preliminary Requirements • Majority of system must be compatible with software already owned and operated by the U.S. military • Research focused on Afghanistan including but not limited to ANSF, civilian population, economy, and political organization • Project group organization into two subgroups • Values and Metrics: development of value model • System Design: development of decision analysis tool

  6. Technical Approach – Value Model • Qualitative Value Model: the identification of an objective hierarchy relating fundamental and means objectives • Quantitative Value Model: the articulation of the decision maker’s preferences towards the attributes, and the means of measuring each attribute V(x) = ∑wivi(xi) where wi = weight of attribute i vi = value of attribute i at score xi

  7. Technical Approach – System Design • System Input: the quantitative portion of the value model in a standardized survey format, completed by military units • System Processing and Storage: completed survey templates are configuration controlled and ingested into data storage. User querying capabilities allow the retrieval of data (by unit and/or AOR and/or date range) to research trends • Analysis Output: Condensed and easily understood presentation for decision makers

  8. Expected Results • The value model (both quantitative and qualitative portions) • Survey template implementation of the quantitative portion of the value model • Decision analysis environment consisting of: • Input function for survey template with completed unit observations • Data storage and analysis portion • Analysis presentation portion
