6.2: Interagency Visibility
Improve interagency visibility of available external research resources and activities. Other Information:
The Community spends significant resources on external research activities. Broadening knowledge and understanding of these
activities should ensure minimal duplication of efforts and promote more efficient IC exploitation of these assets. Implementing
Actions: • Create an on-line clearinghouse for seminars and projects using external experts. This clearinghouse will keep
analysts informed of upcoming events and convey the results of those efforts. This site will also provide outreach program
managers the capability to more easily exchange information among themselves. • Create a database containing external research
contract efforts. The Intelligence Community currently has no simple mechanism to coordinate its efforts for external research.
While each agency has slightly different needs and different customers, sharing knowledge of these research efforts may allow
efficiencies and cost savings not available today.
