Plans

DFBA leads the development and implementation of strategic plans and concepts for the DoW's Biometrics Enterprise and Forensics Enterprise. Well-designed plans keep the Enterprises functioning within higher-level strategic guidance from its higher headquarters and civilian leadership.

Core Objectives

  • Support National Strategic Planning:

    Incorporate Forensic and Biometric capabilities into national strategic documents such as the National Military Strategy and National Security Strategy.

  • Ensure Consistency:

    Ensure that Enterprise-level plans are consistent with higher-level strategic guidance from the services and above.

  • Implement Plans:

    Follow strategic plans and campaign plans with implementation plans in order to translate mission, vision and goals into measureable, achievable actions and objectives.

Intent

DFBA is responsible for developing and leading implementation of a continuous strategic planning process for the DoW Forensics Enterprise and Biometrics Enterprise. Through its Plans Function, DFBA closely collaborates with Enterprise leadership to integrate Forensics and Biometrics capabilities into new revisions of strategic planning documents, and review existing ones for ways in which Forensics and Biometrics can help meet national objectives. Strategic plans and campaign plans written and approved by DFBA will guide how the Enterprise meets these objectives.
