To provide a strategic plan for the Marine Corps Science and Technology (S&T) enterprise. The Plan focuses Marine Corps S&T efforts to pursue S&T initiatives and support experimentation of concept-based requirements to achieve future Marine Corps capabilities. Background: (a) The Marine Corps S&T Enterprise is an integral part of the larger Naval Research Enterprise (NRE). It is a collaborative effort between the Marine Corps Combat Development Command under the staff cognizance of the Deputy Commandant, Combat Development and Integration, (DC, CD&I); the Marine Corps Systems Command (MCSC), and the Office of Naval Research (ONR). This relationship is depicted in Figure 1.; (b) The Commandant of the Marine Corps provides the future vision for the Marine Corps based on strategic guidance. The DC, CD&I expands on CMC's vision by developing Marine Corps warfighting concepts and determining required capabilities in Doctrine, Organization, Training, Materiel, Leadership and Education, Personnel, and Facilities to enable the Marine Corps to field combat- ready forces; (c) The Marine Corps Combat Development Command (MCCDC) serves as the combat developer for the Marine Corps in the same way that the Marine Corps Systems Command serves as the materiel developer and the Office of Naval Research is technology developer for the Department of the Navy (Navy and Marine Corps). Coalescing these responsibilities requires a synergistic partnership with a common vision, a strategy, and an implements plan. Staff responsibility for coordinating Marine Corps S&T combat development efforts is assigned by DC CD&I to the Commanding General, Marine Corps Warfighting Laboratory under the title of Executive Agent for Marine Corps S&T. An S&T Integrated Product Team with a broad membership across the community of interest reflected in Figure 1 supports the EA for S&T in this coordination role as needed.
