Army Advanced Innovation
Abstract
This Project funds the Advanced Development portion of the Army Innovation Plan, the Army's investment strategy to rapidly accelerate innovative solutions to challenging Warfighter problems. This Project will provide the Army with the most advanced and cutting-edge solutions with the ability to adapt and integrate multi-disciplinary innovative technologies by bridging the interfaces between internal and external efforts for a holistic entry into the acquisition pipeline at the most appropriate milestone. Cross-cutting modernization initiatives leverage strategic partnerships that foster an environment to bring knowledge and expertise to demonstrate innovative technologies that will benefit the warfighter. The pace of advancing technology and the flexibility to respond to cutting-edge technology at the Speed of Innovation, will accelerate the development of unanticipated technology opportunities, and allow the Army to rapidly deliver capabilities to the Soldier. Through the Army's Innovation Oversight Board, the Army senior leadership approves the Innovation projects in the budget year and year of execution based on priority and opportunity, ensuring that innovations have a high potential for filling capability gaps and transitioning to Army S&T projects to inform an optimal technology investment strategy and rapidly deliver capabilities to the Soldier. This Project is coordinated with PE 0602002A (Army Agile Innovation and Development-Applied Research) / Project DC4 (Army Applied Innovation). The cited research is consistent with the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering priority focus areas. Work is performed by the United States Army Combat Capabilities Development Command (DEVCOM), Army Artificial Intelligence Integration Center (AI2C), the Engineering Research and Development Center, Space and Missile Defense Technical Center, and the United States Army Research Institute for the Behavioral and Social Sciences.
