CURRENT PROJECTS Measuring Progress in Conflict Environments (MPICE) IS2 project managed the highly collaborative development of the MPICE Framework, and served in an advisory role to the MPICE tool developed by Logos Technologies, Inc. of Alexandria, Virginia. Jointly led by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), the U.S. Institute of Peace (USIP), the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) and the Department of State (DOS) and with funding support from the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD), USACE and USAID, MPICE is designed to track the progress of stabilization and reconstruction operations across all sectors. Input into this cutting edge project has come from virtually all levels of the development, military, academic, think tank and government communities. MPICE has been tested in Afghanistan, Sudan, and Kosovo and fielded successfully by Logos Technologies, Inc. in a multi-year analysis of Haiti. The MPICE Framework is available here. Stake-Holder Asset-Based Planning Environment (SHAPE) Based on the principles outlined in Environment Shaping, the SHAPE program is spearheaded and funded by the Army Corp of Engineers along with significant contributions from government and non-governmental professionals and experts. IS2 led initial concept development for the SHAPE planning methodology before it blossomed into a multimillion-dollar suite of analytical processes, methodologies, and tools for planning for intervention in complex environments developed by a number of firms under the umbrella of this ambitious Army Corp. program. IS2 served in an extended advisory role to a number of elements of the SHAPE program, including case studies in Guinea, Kosovo and Afghanistan, as well as several important analytical components. Additionally, in September of 2007 a Logos Technology, Inc.-led team including IS2 and Cornell University was awarded a Phase I Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) project to explore the “operationalization” of SHAPE concepts.
