Abstract
A systems analysis of the processes involved in the estimation of future military needs is presented. A conceptual model of the estimation procedure is formulated and illustrated. Several applicable methods are examined in the context of practical approaches to the needs estimation problem. These methods are then evaluated in the framework of the conceptual model. Finally, a coordinated procedure is developed which combines several of the most valuable characteristics in the individual methods.
