Army Capabilities Integration CenterRole in the
U.S. Army

• Director, ARCIC has integration coordination
  authority across the Army in matters pertaining
  to identification of required capabilities and
  DOTMLPF integration to include
• Current developments in support of the Global War
  on Terrorism
• The full range of developments and
  transformational efforts in support of the future
  combat force strategy.
• Continual evolution of the Current Modular Force
  into the Future Modular Force through the
  insertion of capabilities from the Future Combat
  Systems Program

• Management structure for identifying capability
  gaps and directing analytical support for DOTMLPF
  development
• Validation of research and development priorities
  for key Army ST needs
• Development and validation of integrated
  operational architectures depicting warfighting
  capabilities
• Lead Army agency for coordination with Joint
  agencies other Services for identification and
  integration of joint required capabilities

Authority for resource allocation and integrated
execution of approved force management plans
remains vested in HQDA

Support Priorities to the Big Army

• 1. Risk Mitigation Integration for Current
  Force
• Spiral Developments and Prototype Experiments
• Advise HQDA on risk management strategies and
  recommendations
• 2. FCS Spin Out Development Integration
• Support continued efforts of FFID and AETF
• Synchronize and Integrate FCS Spin- out
  capabilities into Modular Force
• Develop Future Combat Systems Brigade Combat Team
• 3. Capabilities Development for the Army in a
  Joint and
• Interagency Environment
• Determine and integrate force capability
  requirements
• Synchronize development of DOTMLPF solutions
• Integrate Operational Architectures
• Guide concepts and technology to mitigate
  capability gaps
• 4. Risk Mitigation for Programs of Record
• Develop integrated DOTMLPF capabilities for HQDA
  to translate into programmatic requirements
• Support IOTE and fielding of Modular Brigade
  Combat Teams

Preserve Intellectual and Physical Capacity to
Underpin These Priorities

• Army concepts nested and support the Capstone
  Concept for Joint Operations (CCJO) and the
  family of Joint Operations Concepts (JOpsC)
• Capstone Concept is the conceptual base for
  subordinate concepts and experimentation
• Operating Concepts and Functional Concepts
  further develop key ideas from the Army Capstone
  Concept
• Concept Capability Plans (CCPs) enable detailed
  development of capability based solutions

Requirements Determination

• A Requirement Depends On Where You Sit
• Combat Developer describes what it is we want in
  a new system -- the system attributes, the
  qualities
• Force Designer (combat development subset) means
  how many in force design and structure -- the
  quantity of a system
• Acquisition Community anything that they must
  consider in developing a new system -- from
  combat developer "requirements" (a.k.a.
  attributes) to specifications
• HQDA Resourcers any activity that requires
  funding

• Capabilities development relies on interdependent
  relationship of four joint processes
• Joint Concept Development and Experimentation
• Joint Capabilities Integration and Development
  System
• (DOTMLPF Change or New Materiel)
• JROC Programmatic Processes
• Defense Acquisition System

Future Force Integration
Synchronize delivery, preparation, and evaluation
of all FCS related products including
complementary systems develop DOTL products
synchronized with PM FCS BCT materiel
developments and exercise command and control of
the Army Evaluation Task Force.

Architecture Integration and Management
Leads the development, integration, and
validation of operational architectures that
provide the underpinnings for land warfare
concepts and capabilities and support
experimentation, analysis, and DOTMLPF solutions.
Decomposes capabilities into Mission, Task,
Purpose statements, identify required operational
elements and information flows, and provides
analysis of the data to decision makers.
