The Pentagon is streamlining oversight in modeling, simulation, and training to accelerate capability delivery to warfighters. Undersecretary of Defense Michael Duffey announced at I/ITSEC 2025 that the department will reduce bureaucratic constraints, empower program managers with greater flexibility, and prioritize schedule adherence over rigid requirement fulfillment. This acquisition strategy shift aligns with Defense Secretary Hegseth’s broader reform agenda, enabling faster development of effective training environments critical to modern warfare preparation.
