Command, Control, Communications, and Intelligence (C3I) Department of Defense C3I FFRDC
Overview The MITRE DoD C3I FFRDC was established in 1958 to support the development and fielding of electronically-based air defense systems. Today, the C3I FFRDC supports a broad and diverse set of sponsors within the Department of Defense and the Intelligence Community. These include the military departments, defense and intelligence agencies, the combatant commands, and elements of both the Office of the Secretary of Defense and the Office of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. The system engineering activities for these sponsors cover a wide range from concept development through the acquisition and fielding of advanced capabilities. Information systems technology, coupled with domain knowledge, underpin the work of the C3I FFRDC. The depth and breadth of the C3I FFRDC's work program generate both the obligation and the opportunity to support the DoD's achievement of its own broader vision. In that spirit, the current DoD/MITRE sponsoring agreement states that, "While serving the immediate needs of the many individual programs it supports, the C3I FFRDC directs its work program toward achieving the DoD's vision of an integrated command and control capability based upon C4ISR systems that support joint U.S. and multinational military operations." Customers The DoD C3I FFRDC supports a broad base of customers within the DoD and intelligence community, including:
