• Act as the primary conduit to MCWL's internal divisions, including the Science & Technology (S&T) Division and others responsible for wargaming, modeling & simulation, and experimentation.

• Facilitate the fielding of prototypes by developing safe and efficient implementation plans in direct coordination with MCWL's subject matter experts (SMEs).

• Deconflict and prioritize requests from MARFORPAC and I/III Marine Expeditionary Forces (MEF) for the use of MCWL technologies.

• Assist the MCWL spectrum manager in tracking and gaining approval for spectrum requests to support technology and prototype testing in the AOR.

• Integrate and align the efforts of the MCWL LNOs at I and III MEF to ensure a cohesive approach to concept and technology development.

• Maintain situational awareness of significant changes to operational plans (OPLANs) and notify MCWL of potential impacts on experimentation priorities.

• Assist the MARFORPAC staff with initial coordination for all MCWL-supported efforts, including modeling, simulations, demonstrations, and user evaluations
