Responding to the COVID-19 Pandemic with Department of Defense (DOD)'s Total Force Fitness Program
Prior to the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, our team of data scientists, public health experts, economists, and military experts used our EpiMaps platform to develop evidence-based and data-driven readiness prediction models at both the individual and community levels. These models allowed the DOD to evaluate the readiness of service members and identify drivers of readiness and health challenges through analysis of social determinants of health and county/state level data. To respond to the needs arising out of the pandemic, our team quickly pivoted to include infectious disease epidemiologists and produce the first relevant county-level COVID-19 prediction model for the DOD to help inform its pandemic response.

Predicting Deployability with the Office of the Undersecretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness
We provided multiple organizations within the Office of Personnel and Readiness with data-informed strategic guidance on policies and programs for optimizing Total Force Fitness. Using EpiMaps as a scalable advanced analytics platform, we:聽

• Quantifiably identified service member readiness
• Predicted achievable levels of deployability
• Preemptively identify root causes of non-deployability

Together with our clients, we applied econometric and machine learning techniques to better understand, assess, and maximize human performance and potential resource impact for the Department.

Using Data to Support Suicide Prevention and Readiness in the National Guard
With our support, the National Guard is taking an evidence-informed, data-informed approach to identifying risk factors, protective factors, and potential predictive factors for suicide in the National Guard population. The end product will be the SPRINGboard Dashboard, which brings together data science, machine learning, and artificial intelligence capabilities. This digital tool will give senior leaders insight into the health risk factors impacting service members' home communities so they can tailor prevention efforts accordingly. SPRINGboard synthesizes population-level health data and internal data from the National Guard Bureau to understand geographic-specific risk factors down to the county level.

Shedding Light on Military Caregivers
Over the last 5 years, we鈥檝e partnered with the Elizabeth Dole Foundation to better understand the needs of military caregivers across the country. Using the EpiMaps platform, we created a custom map that shows where caregivers are distributed, pinpoints locations where poor health outcomes are highest, and draws out the factors that may be driving those outcomes. These new insights give the Foundation an unprecedented, evidence-based look into the localized needs of hidden heroes, helping the organization better support military caregivers in local communities nationwide.
