Portfolio Systems Acquisition (PSA)

Abstract

The Department continues to use enterprise-wide approaches which are met through: (1) horizontal integration within the Department and unity of effort through greater interagency collaboration; (2) engaging in a coordinated and portfolio-based approach to planning, programming, budgeting and execution; and (3) significant reforms at the governance, management and execution levels. The Adaptive Acquisition Framework Process continues providing acquisition reform, provides the Defense Acquisition Executive and the Service Acquisition Executives alternative acquisition paths for rapid prototyping and rapid acquisition, in an effort to use the fastest, most affordable, and efficient way to deliver new weapon systems capabilities to support the operator while continuing to maintain disciplined systems engineering approaches. The Department will continue improving requirements with mature technologies while it maintains disciplined systems engineering approaches. To accomplish this direction, there needed to be a focused goal and concerted emphasis on shifting from acquisition of individual systems to Capability Portfolio Management. This program enables collaborative efforts to implement the NDR direction outlined above and achieve portfolio systems acquisition goals and to develop and implement acquisition reform initiatives.
