Slide 3NATO UNCLASSIFIEDNEDP - NATO HQ - VTC – 15 Jan 2013
The new NATO S&T Organisation (STO)
Slide 4NATO UNCLASSIFIEDNEDP - NATO HQ - VTC – 15 Jan 2013
NATO’s Science & Technology Organization (STO)
• Established on 1 July 2012 as the outcome of NATO S&T Reform
• Successor to the former NATO Undersea Research Centre (NURC) and the NATO Research & Technology Organisation (RTO), combining their expertise and legacy of over 60 years
• Establishing a NATO Chief Scientist position
Slide 5NATO UNCLASSIFIEDNEDP - NATO HQ - VTC – 15 Jan 2013
• The scarcity of resources– NATO’s reforms
• The difference S&T makes in today’s strategic context– Global, complex, interdependent, speed
• The need to extract more value out of NATO S&T– A NATO wide approach: unified governance of NATO S&T
• NATO S&T Strategy, priorities, coordination, synergy– More visibility, more accessibility, more imbrication in the
processes and the decision making• Permanent S&T presence and leadership in the HQ: NATO Chief
Scientist and Office• “Demand-Supply’ dialogue: managing expectations
Drivers of the NATO S&T Reform
Slide 6NATO UNCLASSIFIEDNEDP - NATO HQ - VTC – 15 Jan 2013
• To help position the Nations’ and NATO’s S&T investments as a strategic enabler of the knowledge and technology advantage for the defence and security posture of NATO Nations and partner Nations, by:
– Conducting and promoting S&T activities that augment and leverage the (S&T) capabilities and programmes of the Alliance, of the NATO Nations and the partner Nations [...]
– Contributing to NATO’s ability to enable and influence security- and defence-related capability development and threat mitigation [...]
– Supporting decision-making in the NATO Nations and NATO

• S&T Programme delivery– Nations’ and NATO bodies’ network of Scientists and
Engineers, delivering through a collaborative business model
• Scientific and technical committees, composed of subject matter experts, supported by a Collaborative S&T Support Office (CSO)
– NATO’s Research and Experimentation Centre• Centre for Maritime Research and Experimentation (CMRE)
• NATO S&T and STO governance and leadership– Governance is vested in the Science and Technology
Board– Leadership is exercised by the Chief Scientist, Chair of the
S&T Board and Scientific Advisor to NATO leadership
The Science and Technology Organisation
Slide 9NATO UNCLASSIFIEDNEDP - NATO HQ - VTC – 15 Jan 2013
Programme of Work DeliveryA LabThe in-house delivery business model: a dedicated STO executive body, having its own personnel, specific capabilities and infrastructure, customer-funded
A network for Nations and of (by) NationsThe collaborative business model: a forum where Nations elect to share national resources to conduct cooperative research (supported by a NATO body)
Slide 10NATO UNCLASSIFIEDNEDP - NATO HQ - VTC – 15 Jan 2013
• A Nation:– “The value of the existence of the STO is within
the Nations”• Through the network, making the Nation and thus
NATO stronger• Consider the STO as a lever, a multiplier, ...
– The STO is not “the Research Institute of NATO”• ... With the exception of the CMRE, which is a NATO
Centre for Research and Experimentation

Challenges
Slide 33NATO UNCLASSIFIEDNEDP - NATO HQ - VTC – 15 Jan 2013
• Three Phases– Consolidation Phase (until 31 Dec 2012)– Rationalisation Phase (1 Jan 2013 - Jul 2014 - TBC)– Optimization Phase (Jul 2014 - Jul 2015)
• Phase 1 – Consolidation Phase– STO stand-up by 1 July 2012– Achieve a “steady state” by the end of 2012– Deliver a CMRE Business Plan by the end of 2012– Deliver a NATO S&T Strategy by the end of 2012– Deliver an Operational Research and Analysis Study by
the end of 2012
Transition Plan and Phases
Slide 34NATO UNCLASSIFIEDNEDP - NATO HQ - VTC – 15 Jan 2013
• Phase 2: rationalization phase (1 Jan 2013 – July 2014, TBC)– Transition the CMRE to its new business model;– Implement the decisions pertaining to the ORA
study– Implement the NATO S&T Strategy– Conduct the “further consolidation” study asked
for by the Nations• Do we need to push the S&T Reform further?
• Timelines for this phase need to be confirmed
Transition Plan and Phases
Slide 35NATO UNCLASSIFIEDNEDP - NATO HQ - VTC – 15 Jan 2013
• Phase 3 – Optimization phase (Jul 14, Jul 15, TBC)– Optimize the measures of the rationalization phase.– Implement the decisions pertaining to the “further
consolidation” study.– Lessons learned from the first two years, the
conclusions of the “further consolidation” study and the overall requirements from ongoing NATO reforms will drive this phase
• Timelines for this phase need to be confirmed
Transition Plan and Phases
Slide 36NATO UNCLASSIFIEDNEDP - NATO HQ - VTC – 15 Jan 2013
• S&T Reform challenges - STB– Implementation of the governance of the STO– Implementation of unified governance of NATO S&T (inter alia

Challenges
Slide 37NATO UNCLASSIFIEDNEDP - NATO HQ - VTC – 15 Jan 2013
• S&T Reform challenges - CMRE– Shift in command relationship from ACT to the governance
context of the STO– Shift from the Paris Protocol to the Ottawa Agreement– Shift from common funding to customer funding– Definition and implementation of the ISPE and the Personnel
Establishment – Evolution of the Business Model (and Customer Portfolio)– New Host Nation Agreements and Memoranda of Agreement– Ownership, funding and flagging of the Research Vessels
• S&T Reform challenges - CSO– Definition and implementation of the ISPE– Collaborative Programme of Work (PoW) connection to other
NATO S&T PoW (e. g. SPSP, CMRE)/stakeholders’ objectives
Challenges
Slide 38NATO UNCLASSIFIEDNEDP - NATO HQ - VTC – 15 Jan 2013
• Objectives (expectations): – Achieve a successful transition– Position the Chief Scientist to be influential at
senior levels– Identify a realistic level of ambition for NATO S&T– Increase the effectiveness and the efficiency of
NATO S&T and implement continuous improvement

Conclusions
Slide 44NATO UNCLASSIFIEDNEDP - NATO HQ - VTC – 15 Jan 2013
• The World is complex and increasingly interdependent, creating new challenges for Nations and NATO
• NATO S&T makes the difference, by commonly addressing and anticipating security and defence needs of the Alliance and its member nations
• The STO (either the Collaborative program or the CMRE) provides an attractive framework: all stakeholders can extract/leverage value out of NATO S&T, using interaction mechanisms having proved their effectiveness
• The NATO S&T Reform is an ambitious reform, with many facets, involving Nations and involving the NATO HQ
• Expectations are high and achieving success will continue to ask for hard work, generating and demonstrating the added value of NATO S&T, both in the Nations and in the NATO HQ (NATO processes and NATO decision making)
Conclusions
