To maintain a current analysis of the status of

applicable technical knowledge and of the status of all signifi.

cant relevant studies, research, and development activities that

are conducted by the MAD, by elements of the DOD and the CIA

not normally considered part of the MMO, or by other agencies

from which information may be available;

To maintain a current projection of the technical

requiremants that may be expected to govern the development of

future systemi for gathering intelligence by overflight of

denied areas;

To maintain a current analysis of the technical require•

meats imposed by the needs of the intelligence community upon

systems in current use in the UP;

To maintain a current analysis of the performance of

current systems against existing and projected technical require*

vents, and of the technical problems encountered by these systems;'

S. To analyse for DMR0 the plans and programs of the MR0

kcogram Directors and review and analyse such proposals for new

studies or developments as may be submitted to DSO;

To conduct such other studies and analyses as

may. direct; •

TO recommend to OM such plans and actions as are

found necessary to improve the quality and econony of the ARP,

eine to improve its responsiveness to national needs.

As these responsibilities indicate, this is to be a Staff

office, to assist in guiding and planning, but not responsible —

for conducting, the research and development program. Lesponsi*

bility for specific tasks in the conduct of the program will •

continue to be assigned by DMR0 to appropriate Program Directors.

or other agencies.
the Advanced Planning Office mat be staffed by people

capable of making the basic analyses requited. &rainy,

however, the execution of planning studies calling for significant effort will be assigned by DIRO as tasks to appropriate

Program Directors or to other agencies, under guidance approved

by TARO.

The existence of this Advanced Planning Office at Staff •

level does not imply an exclusive responsibility for such

planning. Program Directors will continue to be responsible .

for advanced planning in connection with their assigned programs.

Creative and imaginative thinking toward the future is encouraged

in all elements of the *0 and within the related elements of

industry. It is my intention that the Advanced Planning Office

assist DNRO in the recognition and pursuit of promising lines

of inquiry, and that it not assume the function of initiating .-

all inquiries itself.
