The results:
Sonalysts has worked with USJFCOM since the establishment of the Joint Experimentation Directorate (J9), helping to develop and test joint operational concepts and solve the problems facing the armed forces both today and in the future. The effort has been to integrate the Service definitions and efforts for joint operations and experimentation into one common effort, with all Services participating in joint experiments and wargames with a common lexicon and context.
Sonalysts has supported JFCOM wargaming at various levels, ranging from Title 10 Service Wargames and large Joint Experiments to table-top wargames and limited objective experiments. The following are a few examples of Sonalysts' wargaming projects:
In our role as a support contractor for J9 and other JFCOM wargaming, Sonalysts has provided expert technical (computer networking, display, and communications) assistance; seasoned subject matter experts who role-play and assist the active duty, reserve and retired Flag and General Officers participating in the events; trained facilitators who are expert in keeping wargames and other events focused and running smoothly; and experienced analysts who work behind the scenes dissecting and examining game decisions and results in order to provide accurate and timely information to the players and the customers.
Sonalysts has worked to support the joint wargaming effort to not only test Service capabilities in a joint environment, but to help instill the Joint mindset in the Service war fighters of the future. There is no doubt that the fight in the future will be a joint one; with our support to the Joint Forces Command, Sonalysts is helping to educate the leaders who will conduct that fight.
