AI Contract Overview

The contract focuses on advancing research and development in human-machine teaming specifically for Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) analysis. Its primary goal is to enhance the capabilities of human analysts who process and interpret ISR data by developing integrated, human-centric technology solutions that support and improve the cognitive work involved. With the increasing volume and complexity of ISR data from numerous sensors, the effort aims to build efficient human-machine teams that go beyond traditional system-centric approaches by addressing the human element directly. This includes creating tools and workflows that assist analysts in managing data, automating routine tasks, and improving overall analysis quality through iterative knowledge gathering, rapid prototyping, and evaluation with real-world operators. The effort is structured around three main technical objectives: detailed ISR knowledge elicitation from the analyst community to improve the entire intelligence cycle; concept design and development of human-centered tools that tackle challenges in ISR analysis and predictive assessment; and performance assessment through realistic human-in-the-loop testing environments with validated metrics. The contract, estimated at $42.5 million, is managed by the Department of Defense's Air Force Research Laboratory at Wright Patterson Air Force Base, with a Broad Agency Announcement planned for release in late August to early September 2014 and an industry day in mid-September. The program aims to better integrate cognitive systems engineering principles to ensure technology solutions align closely with actual analyst workflows and needs.

Full Description

NOTICE OF CONTRACT ACTION FOR "Human-Machine Teaming for Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) Analysis. This effort is for innovative research concepts that advance the overall mission of the Human Analyst Augmentation Branch (711HPW/RHXM) which is to develop, test, evaluate and transition integrated human-centric technology solutions to the ISR community. This effort seeks to ultimately improve the performance of humans who process, exploit, analyze, produce, and disseminate ISR data and information. The large number of sensors and sensor platforms continues to proliferate along with an exponential increase in ISR data. Improved sensing technologies along with the growing rate of data production presents challenges to human analysts who must turn this data into information. Research into improving data fusion and analysis of ISR data has seen steady growth, but these efforts continue to provide system-centric solutions and do not adequately address the human element. Human-centered ISR research places the human component in the system at the forefront and seeks to develop technologies that create an efficient human-machine team that amplifies the ISR analyst's capability to perform cognitive work that ultimately improves product quality. Human Analyst Augmentation research encompasses science and technology development, experimentation and demonstration in the area of improving intelligence operators' perception, understanding and analysis through the application of a cognitive systems engineering design cycle, ensuring that technology solutions accommodate work as it is actually performed. Technology solutions can range from individual tools that assist the analyst by automating mundane, repetitive tasks to entirely new workflows that amplify the analyst's capability to perform cognitive work. This is accomplished by integrating technical functions with the cognitive processes they support and making that cognitive work more reliable. Achieving these goals requires several rapid iterations of in-depth knowledge elicitation from real-world operators, identifying barriers to work, rapid-prototyping of solutions to address those challenges, and evaluation of those solutions with operators. Ultimately, this effort will develop an understanding of what it takes for an integrated human machine intelligence analysis team to navigate and understand vast quantities of intelligence data. The technical objectives of this effort fall in three areas: (1)ISR Knowledge Elicitation - This effort seeks to elicit detailed knowledge from the ISR community to aid research and development efforts to improve the overall Planning & direction, Collection, Processing & exploitation, Analysis & production, and Dissemination (PCPAD) process. (2)ISR Concept Design and Development - This effort seeks to enhance intelligence analysis and predictive assessment, in a variety of domains, by building human-centered tools and workflows that address human and system challenges involved in various ISR analysis tasks. (3) ISR Performance Assessment - This effort seeks to provide a realistic human-in-the-loop analyst environment with validated subjective and objective measures and metrics for testing potential processing and exploitation capability improvements prior to acquisition. It is anticipated that a Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) providing more details into this program will be released late August 2014 to early September and will be available at www.fedbizopps.gov. An Industry day is being planned for mid September 2014. Please note that requirements may change and that this is not a guarantee that a solicitation will follow. Estimated contract value is $42.5M
