Advanced Innovative Analysis and Concepts
Abstract
The Disruptive Technology Demonstrations project is a technology initiative to address pre-conflict-centric capability needs and anticipatory concerns while maintaining low cost, small footprint operations. Technology demonstrations of innovative concepts and prototypes, backed by detailed performance and effects analysis, will focus on Secretary/Department Strategic Vectors, and Chairman’s Gap Assessment of capability shortfalls. Concepts that provide capability improvements to Combatant Commanders will be identified for accelerated prototype demonstration and worked as joint projects with the Services to speed transition time for rapid fielding. The program objectives are to develop disruptive anticipatory products, processes and services suited for quick deployment to fulfill emerging pre-conflict requirements. Disruptive technology and process demonstrations will leverage low cost, commercial, and often low technology options that don’t conform to the typical DoD acquisition business model but have the potential to disrupt and change warfighting capabilities by avoiding or creating technological surprise. Demonstrations will include protection capabilities in an era of increased theft of Defense-related Intellectual Property (IP).
