1.0.
(S/NF)
PURPOSE:
The
purpose
of
this
effort
is
to
continue
basic
and
applications research
in the field
of psychoenergetics.
2.0.
(S/NF)
BACKGROUND:
2.1.
(S/NF)
Over
the
past
years,
DIA
has
followed
the
field
of
psychoenergetics
for two basic reasons:
2.3.
(S/NF)
The GRILL FLAME project concluded
in
1983
and
a report with
project
findings
was
sent
to
congressional
intelligence
and
appropriation
committees.
The
report
affirmed
the
existence
of
remote
viewing
phenomenon
and recommended
that
additional
research
for quantifying
and developing
remote
viewing
as
an
intelligence
collection
tool
be
pursued.
This
recommendation
was
endorsed
by
a
special
Science
Panel
that
met
to
review
GRILL
FLAME
activities.
This
panel
also
affirmed
that
the
SRI
research was scientifically
sound
and
urged
that
basic
and
applied
research
in
psychoenergetics
be
continued,
its
scope expanded,
and that other
laboratories be involved.

(S/NF)
The
first
opportunity
to
expand
psychoenergetics
research
scope
occurred
in
1985.
The
Department
of
Army's
Surgeon
General
Office
for
Research
and
Development
(DASGRD)
initiated
a
5-year
research
and
development
program with
SRI
International
to
pursue many
of
the
recommendations
from
the
GRILL
FLAME
report.
The
SGRD
program
centered
on
two
main
aspects:
basic
phenomena
understanding,
and
application-oriented
research.
DIA
established
close
ties
with
this
R/D
effort
to
insure
that
applications
research would
be
adequately pursued.
2 5
(S/NF)
In
1987,
it
became
apparent
that
SGRD
funding
for
this
activity* might
not
be
available
to
carry
through
to
the
end
of
the
5-year
period.
Consequently,
DIA
made
this
situation
known
to
various
potential
fundi nq
sources.
The
House
Appropriations
Committee
(HAC)
assisted
in
obtaining
$1
million
in
R/D
funds
in
FY
1988 for
DIA to continue
this
effort.
A MIPR action
to
the existing
SGRD
contract
is considered
the most expeditious
method
of
allocating
this
funding.
The HAC
also requested
that these funds
e
distributed evenly between basic
and applied or operational
research.
3.0.
(S/NF)
OBJECTIVE:
The
objective
of
this
program
is
to
continue
investigating
and
developing
the
most
productive
aspects
of
psychoenergetics
as defined to date
in the SRI research.
4.0.
(S/NF)
SCOPE:
The
basic
scope
of
this
effort
will
be
to
pursue
areas
of
research
that
contribute
to
psychoenergetics
phenomena
understanding,
and
to
conduct
investigations
that
have
the
greatest
potential
for
development
of
an intelligence application capability.
5.0.
(S/NF)
TECHNICAL CONSIDERATIONS:
5.1.
(S/NF)
All
research
activities
and
findings
over
the
years
of
SRI
involvement
in
psychoenergetics
shall
be
brought
to
bear
on
this
effort.
In
addition,
expertise
in multidisciplinary
areas throughout
SRI
shall
be made
available
as consultants or for special
support
as required.
5.2.
(U)
Special
support,
if
not
available
at
SRI,
can
be
obtained
via
SRI consultant or subcontract efforts with prior approval
by the COTR.
5.3.
(S/NF)
This
effort
will
utilize
technical
review
groups,
the
Scientific Oversight Committee and
the Human
Use Review Board
that
has
already
been
established
by
HQDA
for
psychoenergetics
research
under
the
original
5-

JUSTIFICATION FOR OTHER THAN FULL AND OPEN COMPETITION
WITH
SRI
INTERNATIONAL
(S/NF)
The Defense
Intelligence Agency proposes
to procure through
the
Virginia Contracting Activity,
pursuant
to the authority of
U
S
C
2304
(c)
(1)
services
to perform phenomenological
research
ana
development
in psychoenergetics.
The estimated cost of the service
is
$1
000,000.00.
Procurement
of the above by use of procurement
procedures by other than
full
and open competition
is necessary because:
(1)
(U)
The contractor
is uniquely qualified
due
to their
15 year history of successful
research
in this field;
(2)
(S/NF)
The contractor has
internationally recognized experts
in
this field who have direct access
to most world-wide research
activities
on
this topic;
(3)
(U)
The contractor has
an extensive multidisciplinary staff
that can
be available for consultation
as the need arises;
(4)
(U)
The contractor has
an extensive classified data base
which
has comingled with both government and proprietary
data that
is essential
for this contract;
(5)
(S/NF)
It would require several years for
a new contractor
to achieve the present
level
of expertise and competence
possessed by SRI
International;
this would create
a serious
delay
in phenomena understanding,
in applications development,
and
in understanding potential
threat posed by similar foreign
activities
in this
area.

BACKGROUND:
a.
(S/NF)
In
1985,
the Department
of Army's Surgeon General
Office for
Research
and Development
(DASGRD)
initiated
a
5-year psychoenergetics research
and development program.
Research
identified for this effort centered or two
aspects ;basic psychoenergetics phenomena understanding,
and applications
oriented research.
This
SGRD program was
in response to recommendations that
followed from DIA's 3-year GRILL FLAME evaluation effort that examined the
validity and threat potential
of
an aspect of psychoenergetics known
as remote
viewing.
DIA established close ties with this SGRD research program to
insure
that applications research would
be adequately pursued.
SGI J
b.
(S/NF)
In
1987,
it became apparent that SGRD funding might not be
available to carry the project through to the end of the 5-year period.
Consequently,
additional
funding was sought by DIA and acquired through
funding transfer action by the House Approprations Committee
(HAC).
This
funding
is now available
in
DIA.
MIPR action
to the existing SGRD contract
is
the most expeditious method of allocating these funds.

DESCRIPTION:
a.
(S/NF)
Expected Capability:
This effort will
permit both basic
and
•
applied research
in psychoenergetics
to continue.
Tasks defind
in the
classified statement of work focus on those activities that have the highest
potential
payoff
in
both basic phenomena understanding and
in achienement of
new or improved application capability.
Progress
in both areas will
ultimately assist DIA and the
Intelligence Community
in pursuing operational
applications
and
in assessing the potential foreign threat
in this
area.

A prior effort
(1981-1983)
concerning psychoenergetic
phenomena was conducted under Project GRILL FLAME through
a DIA contract with
SRI
International.
The main purposes of GRILL FLAME were to evaluate the
threat that foreign psychoenergetic achievements could pose to US national
security and to explore the potential
of psychoenergetic phenomena for use
in
US
intelligence collection and military operational
problems.
GRILL FLAME
included first-hand research
and experimentation
in the psychoenergetic
phenomenon
of remote viewing with the goal
of attaining sufficient
understanding of this phenomenon to permit an informed judgment
as
to whether
to proceed
in further study and application pursuits,
or to abandon the area
entirely.
The results of this effort have confirmed the reality of the remote
viewing phenomenon
and the existence of
a potential
threat to US national
security.
GRILL FLAME also
included assessments of foreign research
in
psychoenergetics.
