AFWERX Operations and Support

Abstract

The AFWERX mission is to accelerate agile and affordable capability transitions by teaming innovative technology developers with Airmen and Guardian talent. AFWERX leverages Spark (the Airmen and Guardian talent base), AFVentures (the dual-use expanded technology base), and Prime (technology transitions) to scale and accelerate the capability. Funding in this project supports AFWERX research and development, innovation hubs, and information technology, public affairs, and marketing. The Spark mission is to inspire and enable Airmen and Guardians to unleash their collective talent and ingenuity. Spark connects innovators using virtual collaboration, immersive training, and networking opportunities to inspire ideas and cultivate a more lethal force. By connecting operators closer to acquisition processes, Spark provides both a voice and a conduit to accelerate powerful ideas into game-changing operational realities. This focus helps guide technologies through transition across the valley from idea to scaled and sustained capability. Beginning in FY 2024, PE 0604317F, Technology Transfer, Project 646030, AFWERX efforts and Project 64317A, Technology Transfer Add were transferred to PE 0604009F, AFWERX Prime, Project 640856 AFWERX Operations and Support.
