Architecture Experimentation and Evaluation
Abstract
Department of Defense needs an agile approach to capability development, integration, and delivery that is both rapid and continuous. Therefore, the program also develops the digital architecture for the Air Force and Space Force via regularly recurring Department of the Air Force Architecture Demonstration and Evaluation events alongside other Services in partnership with one or more operational Commanders. This engine of architecture demonstration and integration affords the opportunity for commanders and operators to shape Minimum Viable capabilities and requirements for operational use. These evaluations and warfighter feedback shape subsequent Department of the Air Force wide architecture activities. The necessity to conduct test and analysis at the architecture level and the speed required by the operational needs require enhanced approaches to traditional test and analysis capabilities, namely new, innovative and sufficiently resourced test and analysis infrastructure, networks, and core subject matter expertise to include employment of military, civilian, reserve, and contractor capabilities.
