Department of Defense Human Factors Engineering Technical Advisory Group (DoD HFE Virtual TAG) Meeting

Data Driven Decision Making

June 28, 2021 - June 30, 2021

Defense Collaboration Services (DCS)

Humans are often required to make decisions under time and contextual pressures, ever-changing environments, and incomplete or unclear data. Under these conditions, factors such as competing priorities, human condition, and perceived risk may compound to negatively impact the quality of these decisions. Advances and achievements in this area are anticipated to have broad application and implication across DoD and beyond. However, the efficacy of the approach to enhance decision quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the underlying elements. Therefore, it is imperative that the HFE government, industry, and academic communities of interest work together to ensure best practices are balanced with security and governance as these core capabilities are developed.

VTAG 2021 will provide a collaboration environment for discussion of human centric challenges and potential solutions in order to forge the future of Data Driven Decision Making (DDDM) cross-service solutions.
