ISR Operations

ISR operations synchronize the planning and tasking of intelligence assets to collect data and coordinate the required processing, exploitation, and dissemination to transform information collected into actionable intelligence. This actionable intelligence supports operational decision-making, planning, and execution. The current ISR enterprise encompasses multiple sensors and platforms operating in air, land, maritime, space, and cyberspace domains and multiple tasking, collection, processing, exploitation, and dissemination chains; owned and operated by multiple organizations and at multiple echelons.

The GARRETT GROUP provides our clients with the expertise to integrate and manage the collection of ISR assets across all domains to satisfy strategic, operational and tactical requirements. The data may be used by national, joint, service specific, coalition, or allied personnel or any combination thereof. Global integrated ISR enables the integration of this collected information to deliver intelligence to the right person at the right time, anywhere on the globe. At first blush, our ISR expertise may appear mission and operation specific but the services we provide are applicable to any situation requiring the optimization of scarce resources. The GARRETT GROUP services supporting ISR operations include:
