Novel
Sole Source Justification
for
Intelligence Collection Techniques
(GRILL FLAME)
with
SRI
International
(S)
In order to fulfill
the objective of this
statement of work,
which
is
to
investigate
in
detail
certain
psychcenergetic
phenomena
that have
potential
military applications,
the contractor
is
required
to
have both
a
high degree of technical
competence
in the
analysis
and evaluation of
psychoenergetic phenomena
such
as remote viewing and
psychokinetics,
and reliability and security clearances
necessary to evaluate the app-
licability to military purposes
by comparing
reported
phenomena
to
actually verifiable observed phenomena
(which might
be very highly
classified).
(S)
While there are other contractors or educational
institutions avail-
able with
the
potential
to
scientifically evaluate
the phenomena,
the
personnel
involved $ould not
have the depth of background offered
by
SRI
nor would they possess
the
requisite security clearances.
For an-
other contractor
to
acquire
both personnel
and expertise would
be
pro-
hibitive
in time
and
expense
to
the government.
Additionally,
SRI,
a
recognized leader
in this
field of analysis,
has performed similar work
for other U.S.
Government agencies
and
has
a
unique,
classified
data
base which
has
comningled
both government
and proprietary data
that
is
absolutely essential
for the successful
completion
of this
contract.
(S)
For the above
reasons,
SRI
International
of Menlo
Park,
CA,
is
the
only source for contracting
for this
study.

JUSTIFICATION FOR SOLE SOURCE PROCUREMENT (U)
1.
(S)
SRI
International
is uniquely qualified for this sole source
procurement
by virtue of
a combination
of experience and performance.
2.
(S/NOFORN)
SRI
International
is
a recognized leader
in the field of
psychoenergetics and has performed similar work for other U.S.
Government
agencies over the past
feu/ years.
Previous
u/ork,
under DIA contracts
MDA-908-81-C-0292 and MDA-908-92-C-0034 has formed
a highly meaningful
data base
u/hich will greatly enhance the value and effectiveness
of
this new contractural effort.
3.
(S)
The effort involved for
a new contractor to research the same
level of capability and expertise that
SRI
currently possesses for this
area would be too time consuming and uneconomical to acquire and develop.
To acquaint
a new contractor
in this area of expertise,
if
he could be
found,
would require several years simply
to achieve the present level
of expertise and competence possessed by
SRI
International.

...
; Work proposed
in

is not severable
from the existing
FY
S&T
Project:

(GRILL

be-
cause work on
both contracts are very similar and
interrelated.
Previous work,
under DIA contract DNA 001-78-C-0274 and
FY
S&T Project:
Novel
Intelligence

(GRILL

has
formed
a
highly meaningful

will
greatly enhance
the value and effectiveness of this new contractural
effort.
4.
(S)
The effort involved for
a new contractor to research the
same
level
of
capability and expertise
that SRI currently possesses
for this area of analysis
and evaluation would
be
too
time consuming and uneconomical
to acquire
and de-
velop.
To acquaint
a new contractor
in
this
area- of expertise,
if
he could
be
found, would require
several
years simply
to achieve
the present
level
of exper-
tise and competence possessed
by
SRI
International.
Consequently,
it
has
been
de-
termined
that
to
amend
the basic
DIA contract would
be much more efficient than
starting
a
new,
separate Army contract.

1.
General
The objective
of
this
effort
is
to
investigate
in
detail
certain
psyc.hoenergeti c phenomena
that have
potential
military applications.
Emphasis
will
be
on
evaluating application
potential
and

of
such
phenomena,
and
to provide such
knowledge
as
gained
under
this
contract
to appropriate
DoD
agencies who will
evaluate
the significance
of foreign work,
particularly
as
it may pose
a threat
to
the
US.
Major emphasis
will
be
on evaluating
remote viewing phenomena
and
in
particular,
targeting
aspects,
via coordinate
or
other methods.
Related
to
this
are training methods,
methods
of enhancing reliability
and repeatability of
t£e phenomena.

type
investigations:
2.1.1
Simulate
experimental
results
for which
there
is
data to
assess validity of
the foreign research.
2.1.2
Assess military applications
potential
of the foreign research
(or
claims),
particularly where
a
threat
to
US security
is
possible.
2.1.3
Assess feasibility of
the most
significant
applications
and
evaluate
limitations.
#
2.1.4
Evaluate
the use
of remote viewing
to
locate target
objects
or people.
2.1.5
Evaluate
the
use
of remote viewing for
event detection
and
to
locate events.
2.1.6
Evaluate the
use
of remote viewing
to detect the presence
or
absence
of targets.
•
2.1.7
Evaluate the potential
of
various
camouflage,
concealment
and
deception
as
countermeasures
to remote viewing.
2.1.8
Investigate the effects
of the following
variables
on the remote
viewing phenomena,
(a)
accuracy,
(b)
degree
of resolution,
(c)
affect on
the sensory inputs
(feel,
smell,
