It is imperative that our nation be ready to respond to the future, whether it’s planned or unexpected, special activities or major events. Human performance is vital to maintaining readiness and overall system performance. Ensuring our nations responders are provided systems and equipment optimized for their use is the main purpose of HFE and HSI practitioners. Most all of us, in one way or another, are involved in the acquisition of systems with the purpose of making the systems better for the operator, maintainer, and system support personnel. Attending the TAG is a great way to learn and participate with working groups that are making these positive impacts. What have you or your organization done to prepare for the future, whether your efforts are for influencing current projects in acquisition, research, and development efforts, or assisting future projects through defining requirements? What can we do to prepare ourselves for what lies ahead concerning future technology, and leverage that technology to accommodate the operators and maintainers? Are you ready for the challenges? Are you ready for the future?
