### Project MA — MARMS

The Mission Assurance Risk Management System (MARMS) is a Department of War (DoW) risk management system that directly supports the Secretary of War Mission Assurance responsibilities as defined in the DoD Directive 3020.40, Mission Assurance, with the objectives of creating resilience and supporting critical processes to enable the protection of assets and ensuring defense critical missions across 17 Mission Assurance Related Programs and Activities. MARMS functions as an integration framework spanning multiple security domains that will support risk-informed decision-making, resource investment, and improved synchronization at different levels within DoW. MARMS supports multiple Joint Capability Areas: Command and Control, Logistics, and Protection. MARMS is a joint program and an acquisition category Ill software-intensive and situational awareness program in the agile-based Adaptive Acquisition Framework – Software Pathway.

## Mission & acquisition strategy

The Mission Assurance Risk Management System (MARMS) is a Department of War (DoW) risk management system that directly supports the Secretary of War Mission Assurance responsibilities as defined in the DoD Directive 3020.40, Mission Assurance, with the objectives of creating resilience and supporting critical processes to enable the protection of assets and ensuring defense critical missions across 17 Mission Assurance Related Programs and Activities. MARMS functions as an integration framework spanning multiple security domains that will support risk-informed decision-making, resource investment, and improved synchronization at different levels within DoW.

The acquisition strategy for MARMS is based on its designation as a joint DoW program and being a software-intensive and situational awareness program. Therefore, it is aligned to follow the acquisition construct defined by the agile-based DoD Instruction 5000.87 Operation of the Software Acquisition Pathway. In order to accomplish the Mission Assurance Strategy Implementation Framework and policy of aligning and integrating the risk based data for the 17 MARPA, the MARMS Program Management Office will build on the initial foundational/baseline information technology capabilities and data integration investments for Increments 1 and 2 for the remaining MARPAs per the guidance of the Deputy Assistant Secretary of War for Defense Continuity and…
