关于我们
IDA (Institute for Defense Analyses) – a not-for-profit corporation headquartered in Alexandria, Virginia just outside Washington, DC – operates three Federally Funded Research and Development Centers (FFRDCs) in the public interest: the Systems and Analyses Center, the Science and Technology Policy Institute, and the Center for Communications and Computing. Sponsors rely on IDA for dispassionate, fact-based, and scientifically rigorous research and advice to inform their decisions. Since 1956, IDA’s basic mission has remained unchanged – bring the best scientific, technical, and analytic talent to bear on issues critical to U.S. National security, in a research environment free of commercial or shareholder interests where objectivity and the public interest are foremost. The work produced by IDA’s FFRDCs is characterized by unquestioned objectivity and high quality. Because of our unique relationship with our Government sponsors, IDA enjoys unusual access to highly classified and sensitive government and corporate proprietary information. We adhere to a strict regime for avoiding conflicts of interest. We are thus in the position of offering outsider perspectives on important issues with insider access to information. Our diverse mix of professionals possesses expertise in a broad range of technologies and systems combined with deep knowledge of costs, policies, operations, and organizational matters. IDA continually renews and evolves its staff, integrating those newly educated in the latest advances in research with seasoned veterans of acquisition management, policy-making, and operational leadership roles in government and defense-related organizations. The exceptional creativity, determination, and commitment to service that IDA researchers bring to their work are the foundation of IDA’s excellence.

Although Israeli intelligence collected knowledge that Hamas was preparing for an attack, senior officials ignored analysts’ warnings. Had Israeli decisionmakers paid more attention to warning intelligence, the conflict would likely have been significantly contained. Lessons from an analysis of Israeli warning intelligence failures can inform future Israeli and U.S. Intelligence Community training, tradecraft and analysis to warn of strategically important events.

?? Applications for our 2025 Summer Associate Program are due January 24th! Sonia Desai, an undergraduate student at University of Michigan who worked in our Cost Analysis and Research Division this past summer shares her favorite part of the Summer Associate experience: “I really enjoyed all of the social events. You meet people throughout day-to-day work, but I found that the social events, like lunches, kickball games, etc. - that’s where I really got to know people better and become closer friends.” Her advice for students interested in applying? “Be confident in yourself. Coming into the program, I felt a bit overwhelmed because there are so many talented people working here. I found that I actually know a lot more than I thought I did! I’m good at what I do, and I get better every day by learning from the people around me. You’re smart and you belong here.” ??
