Abstract
This Project funds the governance, strategy development and oversight of science, research, and technology investments within the Department of the Army. These efforts include developing strategic direction, policy development, supervision and management of the Army's S&T portfolio including resource allocation. This project includes civilian manpower and contractor support required to implement a set of management decision aids and tools to support technical and budgetary decisions at the Department of the Army (DA). Includes the research and development planning, programming and execution for Army S&T, the Army Applied SBIR program, the Army Manufacturing Technology program, Technology Maturation Initiatives program, Technology Transition policy, and Laboratory Management policy. Covers the development and tracking of S&T metrics across the enterprise and supports development of Army plans, programs and policies for OSD and Congress. Most of the efforts in this project are on-going activities to support Army Research and, Development programs. Effective exploitation of Science and Technology (S&T) information is critical to achieving the goals established by Senior Army Leadership for the future force. Funding in this program supports Independent Review Team analysis of technology maturity as part of the Technology Maturation Initiative and Technology Area Readiness Assessments. The cited work is consistent with the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering Science and Technology Modernization Priorities and the Army Modernization Strategy. Work in this Project is performed by the Office of the Assistant Secretary of the Army, Acquisition, Logistics and Technology (ASA(ALT)), The Pentagon, Washington, DC.
