Elizabeth Bowman, (410) 278–5924, EMail: Elizabeth.k.bowman.civ@mail.mil
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Interested
offerors of information may attend the
event in person or may submit a 100word response describing how a
technology meets one or more of the
tasks identified in this document.
Written responses should be sent to Dr.
Bowman not later than June 29, 2018 for
inclusion in a summary technology
report.
The Joint Information Operations
Warfare Center (JIOWC) is establishing
requirements to support the emerging
domain of Operations in the Information
Environment. A Capability Based
Assessment (CBA) has identified four
Concept Requirement Capabilities
(CRC’s), identified below, each
consisting of sub-ordinate task
requirements. The CRCs and the
supporting sub-tasks are identified
below:
Required Capabilities
A. Required Capabilities to Characterize
and Assess the Informational, Physical, and
Human Aspects of the Security Environment.
The Joint Force requires the ability to:
A.1 determine impact of relevant
informational, physical, and human aspects
of the security environment on Joint Force
objectives.
A.2 understand the perceptions and
attitudes that drive behaviors that affect JFC’s
objectives.
A.3 understand how relevant actors are
successful in adapting their use of
information technology.
A.4 share contextual understanding of the
security environment.
A.5 characterize, assess, synthesize, and
understand trends of relevant actor activities
and their impacts on the IE throughout
cooperation, competition, and conflict.
A.6 analyze and estimate relevant change
within the IE.
A.7 identify, access, and manage IE subject
matter expertise.
A.8 understand internal and other relevant
actor bias within the IE.
B. Required Capabilities to Formulate
Options that Integrate Physical and
Informational Power. The Joint Force requires
the ability to:
B.1 identify, optimize and assess the
effectiveness of the full range of options that
integrate physical and informational power
to produce desired psychological effects.
B.2 employ required forces and capabilities
from across the Joint Force to sustain or
change perceptions and attitudes that drive
desired behaviors of relevant actors.
B.3 assess relevant actors’ capability and
capacity to receive, understand, and respond
to Joint Force physical and informational
activities.

C. Required Capabilities to Execute and
Modify Options. The Joint Force requires the
ability to:
C.1 execute integrated physical and
informational activities designed to achieve
psychological effects.
C.2 assess and modify informational power
with the same level of competency as
physical power.
D. Required Capabilities to Institutionalize
the Integration of Physical and Informational
Power. The Joint Force requires the ability to:
D.1 change how its individuals,
organizations, and units think about and treat
information.
D.2 organize, train, equip, and maintain
organizations that deliberately leverage the
informational aspects of military activities.
D.3 integrate operations with
interorganizational partners.
D.4 leverage physical and informational
power at its discretion to achieve objectives.
The Joint Concept for Operations in
the Information Environment provides a
detailed review of the CRCs. This
document is available upon request
from Dr. Bowman.
The Army Research Lab (ARL) is
conducting a technology state-of-the-art
review in support of the JIOWC CBA to
identify technology readiness levels
(TRLs) of existing or emerging systems
to support the four CRCs and each of the
subordinate requirements. The
Information Event will begin with a
government overview of the importance
and military relevance of OIE. This will
be followed by a staff overview of the
OIE CRCs and sub-tasks that will
include discussion and question/
answers from the audience. Four CRC
subgroups will be formed and led by
government advisors to explore the
technology requirements in more detail.
A technology demonstration
opportunity will be offered during the
last two hours of day one for attendees
to provide technology exemplars. Days
two and three (the number of days will
be determined by the number of
attendees interested in presenting) will
consist of individual briefings by
interested parties. Briefings will be
organized by CRCs. Presentations
should not exceed 10 minutes to be
followed by 5 minutes of questions/
answers.
As indicated previously, physical
attendance is not required at the
Information Event. If interested parties
would like to promote their technology
for any of the CRCs, they should send
a written description of how the
technology addresses one or more CRC
or sub-task. Each description should not
be greater than 100 words and should
include the TRL for the system. The
description should clearly identify the
