Operating Tenets
  • Outsource majority of research/tech development
    to industry and academia
  • Perform focused in-house research to maintain
    core expertise and be a smart outsourcer
  • Balance near term transfer and far term research
  • Collaborate/coordinate with others
  • DoD Army, Navy, DARPA, DTRA, MDA, NRO
  • Other federal agencies NASA, DOE, others
  • Private sector
  • International

Many Changes in Global RealitiesSince the
Creation of AFRL
The speed of modern technology and the creativity
of our elusive and opportunistic adversaries

In An Environment of Change AFRL Must Have a
Clear Site Picture of What Our Customers Need
Who are Our Customers and What Do They Want?
  • Three discrete
  • Customers
  • Timelines
  • Outputs
  • Relationships
  • AF Senior Leadership
  • Technology ideas that shape future concepts
  • Tech push to show operators whats possible
  • Program Managers (Capability Developers)
  • Transitionable technology options
  • Core ST connected to operational AF needs via
    CRRA requirements pull
  • Capability Users and Decision Makers
  • Responsive technology solutions
  • Unprecedented innovation to meet urgent needs

Todays Lab has one work structure to serve all
customers

Attributes of the Envisioned Future
oneAFRL
  • Consistently anticipate and proactively adapt to
    an uncertain future
  • A valued AF team member leading innovative,
    integrated, and multidisciplinary
  • Long-term research, driven by an audacious
    technology goal shape the future Air Force
  • Development of technology options that meet the
    needs of capability developers deliver on our
    commitments
  • Technology response to urgent needs provide
    rapid, come-as-you-are solutions
  • Grow technology leaders for the AF
  • Access and exploit all of mankinds ST knowledge
  • Establish and fully leverage strategic
    partnerships
  • Operate with sound enterprise business principles

Gen Jumpers Sight Picture(Air Force Chief of
Staff)
Concepts of Operations (CONOPS) ... will guide
our planning and programming, requirements
reform, and acquisition.
...make warfighting effects, and the capabilities
we need to achieve them, the drivers for
everything we do.
... shift from a program review to a review of
how our programs contribute to warfighting
capabilities and effects.
Air Staff designed a new review to replace the
Quarterly Acquisition Review Program--we call
this new (process) approach a Capabilities Review
and Risk Assessment (CRRA).

Changing the Plot
  • For decades the Pentagons war plans focused on
    countering conventional military threats.
  • New planning scenarios focus on preparing for a
    wider range of contingencies
  • To migrate from Traditional to other areas
    requires Revolutionary Technology Enablers
