ILLUSTRATION OF A PLANNING AND COORDINATION PROCESS

Image
FIGURE A Illustration of a general planning and coordination process and how it relates to an RDT&E process. High-level national security goals will inform policy decisions that in tum define the operational needs or requirements needed to meet the established goals. From there, more specific capability needs can be identified, as well as any R&D necessary to meet those needs. The RDT&E process is thus informed by the planning and coordination process. After research, development, testing, and evaluation, a new operational capability that meets the identified capability needs can be delivered to the end-user, who can provide feedback to the planning and coordination process. Note that the RDT&E is not necessarily linear, as illustrated by the bidirectional arrows.
