MEMORANDUM FOR UNDER SECRETARY OF DEFENSE FOR ACQUISITION,
TECHNOLOGY & LOGISTICS
SUBJECT: Final Report of the Defense Science Board (DSB) Study on Technology
and Innovation Enablers for Superiority in 2030
I am pleased to forward the final report of the DSB Study on Technology and
Innovation Enablers for Superiority in 2030.
The study provides a framework to analyze technology and innovation enabler
investments to support military capabilities required in 2030. The Department should
use this framework, or substitute one of its own, to guides its investment decisions. In
doing so, a key challenge will be to honestly and accurately assess current investments
in the context of the framework and then curtailing investment areas which are no
longer needed. In addition to identifying new investments, the framework provides an
ability to monitor and react against surprise.
Transitioning technology to fielded capability will provide its own set of challenges.
The robust and adaptive techniques that will support transitioning to fielded capability
are likely to produce additional capability and will need to be fed back into the
Department’s framework.
I fully endorse all of the recommendations contained in this report and urge their
careful consideration and soonest adoption.
Dr. Paul Kaminski
Chairman
