This report documents the fifth in a series of workshops and roundtables organized by the INSS Center for Advanced Concepts and Technology (ACT). These meetings bring together operators, planners, researchers, and analysts to identify and examine selected aspects of command and control in coalition operations and Operations Other Than War (OOTW) and to advance the process of developing one or more Mission Capability Packages (MCPs) to support combined and coalition operations.
ACT seeks to improve the state of the art and practice of command and control by undertaking selected research and analysis initiatives and by serving as a bridge between the operational, technical, analytical, and educational communities. The Center focuses on emerging requirements and mission areas where new concepts are needed. One of the problem areas identified in ACT discussions of peace operations is that of interagency civilian-military coordination.
Individuals interested in participating in this initiative or other ACT-sponsored activities are invited to contact either myself or ACT Director, Captain W. Oscar Round, U.S. Navy, at (202) 287-9210, ext. 545.
