Precision Strike Association.


VISION

We aspire to be the premier association dedicated to advancing the art and science of precision engagement concepts and technology. To accomplish this, we will promote the development of systems and procedures in order to locate, fix, track and attack fixed, moving and relocatable targets. We recognize that battlespace management, the network within, which it functions and the adjunct command and control requirements are crucial to success on the battlefield. PSA (Professional Services Automation) An information system designed to organize, track and manage all opportunities, work, resources, costs, revenues and invoices to improve the productivity and efficiency of the workforce.  has a global perspective and welcomes international participation.

MISSION

PSA will provide an ethical environment for government and industry leaders to:

* Facilitate communication between leaders in government and the commercial sector that fosters a beneficial exchange of information.

* Understand and promote national defense policy and military strategy.

* Rationalize required military capabilities with the broad range of available technology and systems.

* Advise on the investment in critical science and technology in order to further the effectiveness of precision engagement operations.

GOALS

* Understand and assist the Department of Defense in fielding transformational precision strike concepts and technologies, particularly for global strike operations.

* Improve the detection and rapid attack of moving and relocatable targets.

* Shorten the kill chain.

* Understand and support value-added reform of acquisition policies in order to reduce development time and cost.

* Understand and develop concepts for the integration of UAVs and UCAVs into precision strike operations.

* Facilitate understanding and implementation of rapid movement toward networked operations related to precision engagement.

* Improve overall capabilities of sensors.

* Pursue a range of navigation and guidance options that minimize planning times and provide prudent alternatives in the event of enemy countermeasures.

* Integrate proposed strike capabilities within context of the evolving precision engagement architecture.
