· Execution Authority: EXORD XXX

· MISO Policy Authority: Deterrence, Assurance, Competition MISO Program

· Target Audience (TA): Male and female Venezuelan citizens living in the areas of Caracas, Distrito Federal; Maracaibo, Zulia; and Maracay, Aragua.

· Assessment Timeline: July 2020 – July 2021

· Assessment Intent: The intent of this assessment is to 1) refine the target audience, 2) establish a baseline, 3) develop trend data to inform Measures of Effect (MOE), and 4) enable the ability to answer requests for information (RFIs) related to the research question and/or to conduct pre-/post-tests on MISO products when required.

· Assessment Objective: The objective of this assessment is to measure the awareness of Venezuelan citizens of Russian and Chinese influence in their country, to include influencing their local economies and influencing politics through disinformation campaigns. Assessment of sentiment toward Russia and China is needed to determine not only awareness, but how the TA feels about the presence of these nations in Venezuela, and whether that sentiment is positive or negative. Cognitive and Affective measures, as well as behavioral intention and self-reported behavior regarding active resistance to Russian or Chinese influence, will need to be captured via multiple survey iterations throughout the year to establish trend analysis and determine whether MISO series in execution are having the intended effects.

· 12x Qualitative Assessments – 2x face-to-face in depth interview & 2x focus groups per city

· Publically Available Information (PAI) & Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) must be included in analysis

(U) Deliverables:

· Recommended assessment plan, to include power analysis

USSOCOM J39 will provide assessment of the vendor back to the KO determining whether the vendor is meeting thresholds identified in the PWS.

· SOCSOUTH/MIST Venezuela will work with the vendor point of contact to ensure a sufficient assessment plan has been developed and that it is aligned with MISO objectives, LOEs, and desired behavior. SOCSOUTH/MIST Venezuela will submit RFIs to the vendor monthly, and will communicate any pre/post-test requirements as they arise. MIST Venezuela will assess vendor performance and report any issues or concerns back to USSOCOM J39.
