The Army’s Integrated Acquisition Process
Warfighting Capability
Articulating the needs of the Warfighter by producing authoritative requirements to the S&T and Acquisition
Communities
1. Basic principles observed and reported
2. Technology concept and/or applicationformulated
3. Analytical and experimental criticalfunction and/or characteristic proof ofconcept
Warfighter Outcomes
Stand alone statements that articulate capabilities needed for the Army Warfighter by FY 2024 and include:
– Clearly articulated description of capability.
– Rationale explaining reason for the capability.
– Metrics to describe achievement of the capability.
• Enhance & restore cognitive and physical performance • Soldiers incorporated into highly trained and competent small units• Access on potential vs. high school performance• Mitigate the increase in physiological and psychological stress• Improving mental, moral and physical capacity and performance
HumanDimension
• Live, virtual, constructive and mixed venues • Impart more skills, faster, at lower cost, with greater retention• Non-traditional home station training techniques • Train prior to employment• Enhance and account for individual proficiencies and learning rates
Training
• Enhanced agility to operate worldwide, reducing weight and volume• Sufficient pulsed power enabling advanced lethality options • Increased continuous power and fuel economy• Provide dismounted Soldiers twice available power at half the tactical wgt
Power and Energy
• Beyond-line-of-sight• Optimized for mobile operations• Increase access to the individual Soldier
Mission Command Network
• Detect, identify and neutralize CBRNE obstacles and WMD• Provide for safe standoff distance• Maintain momentum while protecting Soldiers and platforms
Counter-IED and Mines
Big 5 Warfighter Outcomes That Guide Army S&T Investment
MSCoE Related Warfighter Outcomes
• Standoff Detection of Explosive Pre-Cursors• Terrain Data Generation• Geospatial Information & Services (GI&S)• Computer-aided Analysis and Reasoning• Standoff detection, diagnosis, render safe and neutralization of explosive
(IEDs, UXOs, mines) and CBRN hazards• Rapid construction and repair of combat routes and trails• Rapidly Cross Wet and Dry Gaps• Counter IED and Mine Combined Warfighter Outcome• Standoff detection, diagnosis, render safe and neutralization of explosive
(IEDs, UXOs, mines) and CBRN hazards• Active/Passive Protection• Protection• Stationary Hemispherical Area Protection• Improved Active Protection Systems
MSCoE - Industry and Academia Relationships
Mature “Gateways” to Leverage Industry & Academia• Use of surrogates (government partners)• Cooperative Technology Alliances (CTAs)• SBIR, STTR, BAA• RDEC Partnerships -- Industry & Universities
New Ideas to Leverage Industry & Academia• Direct contact – “difficult to easy” • Building Partnership – JIIM-IA Ofc• Leonard Wood Institute (LWI)
