2.57 Interoperability and Standards Analysis and Development: The contractor shall provide survivability analysis focused on the exchange of information to increase inter-operability between intelligence and operations. Survivability analysis shall focus integration with Agencies, Sister Service, federated mission partners, allies, and combined forces to gain a more effective and complete knowledge of the operational environment that shortens decision-making timelines and enables ISR planners, taskers, and warfighters to quickly engage. The contractor shall provide technical analysis and recommendations for the insertion of new technology into the DCGS Enterprise that will increase collaboration and effectiveness of joint, allied, and coalition warfighters and ultimately increase force survivability. The contractor shall provide technical analysis in SSR operations to research, analyze, and develop new intelligence capabilities, solutions, and products for inter-operability with all the military Services and

Agencies, as well as, warfighters.
