The Empire faces increasing threats from rebel factions exploiting vulnerabilities in our current installations. IDP2 will serve as both a military deterrent and a symbol of Imperial authority, providing unprecedented defensive capabilities while projecting Imperial power throughout key systems. ## Business Objectives - Increase Imperial territorial control by 35% within core systems - Reduce rebel incursion success rate from 24% to <5% - Improve response time to security threats by 75% - Decrease planetary garrison requirements by 60% - Achieve 300% ROI within 5 standard years through reduced military expenditures ## Market Problem Analysis - Current defense platforms lack sufficient firepower to deter organized rebel fleets - Rebel propaganda effectiveness increased 43% due to perception of Imperial vulnerability - Strategic systems remaining under-protected due to resource limitations - Intelligence reports indicate rebel planning for large-scale coordinated attacks - Competing powers developing advanced weapons technology at accelerated pace ## Success Metrics | Metric | Current Value | Target Value | Measurement Method | |--------|--------------|-------------|-------------------| | Territorial Control | 65% of target systems | 95% of target systems | Quarterly territorial surveys | | Rebel Incursion Success | 24% | <5% | Security incident reports | | Response Time | 4.3 hours | 1.1 hours | Defense system logs | | Garrison Troop Requirements | 1.2M troops | 0.5M troops | Resource allocation system | | Annual Military Budget | 15.7T credits | 12.2T credits | Imperial Treasury reports | ## Customer Needs - Imperial High Command requires centralized command capabilities - Regional Governors need visible security presence to maintain order - Imperial Navy requires advanced docking and repair facilities - Intelligence Division needs enhanced surveillance capabilities - Civilian contractors need safe operational environments ## Business Constraints - Maximum budget allocation of 1 trillion credits per fiscal year - Project timeline not to exceed 6 standard years - Must utilize existing supply chains and manufacturing infrastructure - All technologies must comply with Imperial security protocols - Minimum disruption to existing military operations during construction ## Assumptions - Political support from Imperial Senate will remain stable - Required kyber crystal resources remain accessible - Shipyard capacity will be available as scheduled - Technical expertise can be sourced from existing Imperial Academy graduates - Rebel forces will not significantly change tactics during construction phase ## Stakeholders | Role | Department | Responsibilities | |------|------------|-----------------| | Emperor Palpatine | Imperial Throne | Final approval authority | | Grand Moff Tarkin | Imperial Security | Executive sponsor, resource allocation | | Admiral Piett | Imperial Navy | Operational requirements, integration planning | | Director Krennic | Advanced Weapons | Technical oversight, construction management | | Lord Vader | Executive Office | Special requirements, performance evaluation | ## Related Documents - PRD: To be developed following BRD approval - Imperial Defense Whitepaper (ID-42793) - Threat Assessment Report FY23-IMP-8867 - Budget Allocation Document BAD-IMP-238976 </example> <example type="invalid"> Defense Platform Idea - Build big station - Make it powerful - Scare the rebels - Need budget approval </example>
