Physical Security Equipment - SD/ED

Abstract

This program is a budget activity level 5 based on the engineering and manufacturing development activities ongoing within the program. The purpose of this program is to design physical security equipment (PSE) systems for all DoD components, to support its physical security and Force Protection missions. This program supports the protection of tactical, fixed and nuclear weapons systems, DoD personnel and DoD facilities. The funds are used to provide PSE RDT&E for individual Service and Joint PSE requirements. The PSE program is organized so that members of the physical security equipment action group (PSEAG), which consists of the Army, Navy, Air Force, and Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) representatives monitors, directs and prioritizes potential and existing PSE programs. OSD program oversight, to be established by a Memorandum of Understanding, is to be provided by the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense, Acquisition, Technology and Logistics (AT&L) and the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Networks and Information Integration (NII). With few exceptions, each Service sponsors RDT&E efforts for technologies and programs have multi-service application. This program element supports the Army's advanced engineering development of robotic and detection systems. The program element also supports all four Services' identification and redesign of developmental, non-developmental, and commercial-off-the-shelf equipment to meet physical security requirements. Activities within this program will seek to reduce risk associated with integrating, fielding, and supporting the equipment once it becomes a part of the overall security system.
