ForewordFROM THE PRINCIPAL DEPUTY DIRECTOR OF NATIONAL INTELLIGENCE:The FY2016-2020 IC S&T Strategic Plan advances the Office of the Director of National Intelligence’s ability tomanage risk across the National Intelligence Program, and is the charter document guiding the IntelligenceCommunity’s (IC’s) science and technology (S&T) activities. The Strategic Plan is comprehensive in itsapproach, rational in its prescriptions, and defensible in its justification for action. In short, it is exactly whatwe need to ensure our nation’s future intelligence advantage at a time when technological democratization,unauthorized disclosures, and fiscal constraints threaten to erode the IC’s capabilities and advantages.This plan is a new way of doing business for the IC S&T enterprise, and this presents its own unique risks.But the benefits of success far outweigh any perils, making now the time for the IC to implement this novelapproach.The Honorable Stephanie L. O’SullivanPrincipal Deputy Director of National IntelligenceOffice of the Director of National IntelligenceFROM THE DEPUTY DIRECTOR OF NATIONAL INTELLIGENCE FOR INTELLIGENCEINTEGRATION:Innovation—to include technological advancements as well as improved business practices—is criticalto maintain the IC’s role as the nation’s first line of defense and to our ability to provide the strategicand tactical intelligence advantage required by policymakers and warfighters. As the principal means ofenvisioning the IC’s “after next” mission challenges, I will continue to actively support this Strategic Plan,which will be critical to ensure the IC and our partners are able to meet future intelligence needs and betterpromote a mutual understanding of our requirements and capabilities.Mr. Michael P. DempseyDeputy Director of National Intelligence for Intelligence IntegrationOffice of the Director of National IntelligenceFROM THE DIRECTOR OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY:To meet its vision of ensuring intelligence advantage, the IC and its S&T enterprise must know where itis headed—and it will need its partners’ help in charting the best course forward. ‘Partnership’ is not abuzzword in the Strategic Plan; rather, it is its defining principle. We designed the Strategic Plan to beuseful, flexible, enduring, and inclusive. I am particularly excited about involving our partners in generatingtechnical roadmaps to solve current and anticipated intelligence challenges—an ongoing effort to keep theIC pointed in the right direction regardless of the challenges it faces. Feedback on this document can beprovided to S&TInvestment@dnits.ic.gov (JWICS) or S&TInvestment@dni.gov—my staff and I look forward tohearing from you.Dr. David A.
