Technology Innovation
Abstract
This program focuses on rapid innovation and demonstration with emerging technology to address priority warfighter problem sets and National Defense Strategy technology focus areas. By leveraging Service activities and establishing partnerships with other government agencies (OGAs) such as the Intelligence Community (IC) and the Department of Homeland Security, a wide variety of emerging military and commercial technologies are rapidly assessed for applicability to the National Defense Strategy technology focus areas and a broad spectrum of priority DoD problem sets. Enabling the warfighter to execute short duration pilots with these emerging technologies provides a cost effective way to leverage commercial investment for DoD purposes, sharing costs with OGA partners, informing warfighter requirements for follow-on acquisition through traditional DoD channels, and allowing other DoD R&D organizations to focus their resources on both the integration of commercial technologies showing promise in these warfighter pilots as well as on traditional R&D in technologies not well served by commercial start-up companies.
