The Framework's emphasis on ONR taking the "lead" in such areas is therefore well established as a basis for each NNR's programming of its R&D portfolio.

The former may be candidates for formal partnership arrangements while the latter may be better suited to active monitoring and other means of ensuring mutual awareness.
From page 28...
... 28 TOWARD NEW NAVAL PLATFORMS The way the committee chose to think about these multiple functions of the NNR-NE program is to categorize them into the following three responsibilities: • Lead -- where NNR-NE assumes lead responsibility for ensuring the vitality, performance, and desired outcomes of the NE field in meeting naval-unique NE interests and capabilities. This responsibility would include, but not be limited to, providing intellectual leadership in particular S&T subjects that are unique and vital to the Navy's NE needs.
