Abstract
Project Summary: The Navy is the midst of a sweeping re-organization to better enable it to connect its plans, programs, and policies to broader national and maritime strategy. The DCNO for Information, Plans & Strategy (N3/N5) is taking the lead in developing a new organizational structure to assist in this broad effort. The Department of National Security Affairs (NSA) has been actively supporting this effort in the N3/N5 through the Naval Research Program (NRP) for the last two years. In year one, a research team examined the Navy's existing processes of conceiving and executing naval strategy. In year two, a team of Naval Postgraduate School (NPS) researchers provided research and analysis to help various offices in the N50 with their tasks of helping design current and future strategy and the role that diverse global phenomena could have on future fleet design. In year three, NPS professors and a team of international scholars have delivered a series of analytical papers to address the relationship between high-level national strategy and the Navy's role in crafting a maritime strategy to meet national-level objectives. This effort is framed in Chief of Naval Operations (CNO) Admiral John Richardson's call for institution-wide innovation to meet emerging challenges facing the Navy on the high seas. The papers in this research report assist the N51 in ensuring that concepts of innovation will be centrally integrated into current and future fleet design as the Navy crafts a maritime strategy to meet national requirements.
