From the document: “The Department of War (DOW) is rapidly transforming our antiquated acquisition processes and revitalizing the atrophied Defense Industrial Base (DIB) by prioritizing speed, flexibility, and rigorous execution. The Secretary of War has placed the Department on a war footing, and the Warfighting Acquisition System (WAS) is aligning with urgency and velocity, balancing speed with rigor in execution to ensure we rapidly deliver relevant and effective solutions at scale to address warfighting needs. Executive Order (E.O.) 14265, Modernizing Defense Acquisitions and Spurring Innovation in the Industrial Base, directed the Department to prepare this strategy, consistent with President Trump’s direction to transform the current defense acquisition system to ensure delivery of capabilities to the American warfighter at pace to deter and, if necessary, defeat our adversaries.”
