Abstract

The study has two primary purposes: to develop a management planning tool for the Department of the Army and to evaluate specific innovations by means of it. This tool, described and demonstrated herein, can be used to make continuous assessments of the potential impacts of alternative Army research programs--including impacts both on the Army itself and on the physical and social environment with which the Army interacts. The kinds of programs which can be assessed include a wide range of possible technological, administrative, and institutional innovations.
