Since its establishment, the Defense Security Cooperation Agency (DSCA) has been directing, administering, and providing DoD-wide guidance for the execution of programs for which it is responsible. This role is made difficult by the rapidly changing international environment, by resource scarcity, and by the overall complexity of the Security Cooperation community (SCC). It requires a whole-of-government approach to building capacities with our partners that support U.S. interests. DSCA Vision 2020 lays out a plan for DSCA to enable such an approach by the Security Cooperation enterprise (SCE), focusing on three interlocking areas: (1) synchronizing security cooperation activities, (2) meeting customer expectations, and (3) ensuring the effective and efficient use of community resources.DSCA will work with all stakeholders to calibrate its roles and responsibilities in order to address ambiguity, eliminate redundancies across the community, and ensure the appropriate delegation of responsibility for its programs. DSCA will also establish a strategy to effectively manage human capital within the Agency and across the community to ensure that the right people fill the right positions and have the necessary resources to execute their duties. DSCA will lead the community in supporting the workforce with enhanced knowledge management, including a more effective information technology architecture and a culture of organizational learning.
