Soldier Enhancement Program
Abstract
The Soldier Enhancement Program (SEP) was established by the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Years 1990 and 1991. The purpose of the SEP is to evaluate readily available Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS), Government Off The Shelf (GOTS) and Non-Developmental Item (NDI) equipment to increase the combat effectiveness of the Soldier. The SEP uses a Buy, Try and Decide methodology to evaluate (COTS/GOTS/NDI) that have the potential to enhance Soldier combat effectiveness. The SEP provides accelerated integration, modernization, and capability enhancement efforts of lighter, more lethal weapons and munitions, improved engagement optics, sights, lasers and fire controls, improved lighter more comfortable and versatile Soldier individual equipment, survivability enhancement gear, communications equipment and situational awareness aids. Initiatives are submitted by Soldiers and others at any time and are evaluated twice a year.
