Which statement about the acquisition team is correct?

Intelligence must be included on the acquisition team Intelligence is optional on the acquisition team The acquisition team should exclude intelligence personnel Intelligence should be used only in late phases

Correct Answer:

Intelligence must be included on the acquisition team

Explanation:

Intelligence input should be embedded from the start and maintained throughout the acquisition process. Having intelligence personnel on the team provides timely threat assessments, environment context, and adversary capabilities that shape requirements, risk, and design decisions. This early, continuous input helps ensure the system is capable in real-world conditions, informs tradeoffs among cost, schedule, and performance, and reduces the risk of surprises later in the program. If intelligence were optional, excluded, or limited to late phases, the team could miss critical threats or context, leading to misaligned requirements and increased risk.
