The Balanced Technology Initiative: Annual Report to Congress for the Committees on Armed Services, Committees on Appropriations

Abstract

This report responds to provisions of the Fiscal Year 1990 Defense Authorization Act and Fiscal Year 1993 Defense Authorization Conference report. The former requires that the Secretary of Defense submit to the congressional defense committees an annual report on the Balanced Technology Initiative (BTI). The latter instructs ...the Department of Defense should report to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and the House of Representatives not later than April 15, 1993, regarding the Department's future plans for the balanced technology initiative. This is the final BTI annual report. The Department is discontinuing the centralized management of BTI as a program. The President's Defense Budget Request for Fiscal Year 1994 includes no funding for BTI. Responsibility for individual BTI projects is now assigned to a service or to the Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA). Funding for some of the continuing projects is included in service or ARPA budget requests. This report covers only BTI funded activity (FY 1993 and prior) and does not attempt to explain or justify the services' or ARPA's FY 1994 programs. This report contains the following: A summary of recent BTI accomplishments Management actions Project one-page summaries Project status reports
