Army Streamlines Acquisition Process to Enhance Readiness and Innovation

The US Army is overhauling its acquisition process to speed up the development and deployment of new technologies. The changes aim to reduce bureaucracy and increase collaboration between different Army offices. The new structure will have six Portfolio Acquisition Executives and a new office for innovation and technology. The Army expects the changes to speed up acquisition by up to 50% and improve its relationship with the defense industrial base. This initiative was first reported by Breaking Defense.
