Advanced weaponry is providing an exponential increase in intelligence data collection capabilities and the
Intelligence Community (IC) is not properly positioned for the influx of intelligence supportabilitiy requirements the
defense acquisition community is developing for it. The Air Force Material Command (AFMC) has initiated the
Intelligence Supportability Analysis (ISA) process to allow the IC to triage programs for intelligence sensitivities as
well as begin preparations within the IC for the transition of future programs to operational status. The ISA process
is accomplished through system decomposition, allowing analysts to identify intelligence requirements and
deficiencies. Early collaboration and engagement by program managers and intelligence analysts is crucial to the
success of intelligence sensitive programs through the utilization of a repeatable analytical framework for evaluating
and making cognizant trade-offs between cost, schedule and performance. Addressing intelligence supportability
early in the acquisition process will also influence system design and provide the necessary lead time for intelligence
community to react and resource new requirements.
