Rationalization and Transformation of the Defense Technical Information Center, Memorandum : Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering , August 4 , 2025
From the document: “The ability to leverage and share technical knowledge from Defense Research and Development (R&D) efforts is critical to accelerating Defense R&D activities and maintaining a technical edge over our adversaries, essential activities to achieving the Secretary's priorities to rapidly re-establish deterrence and re-build the military. The Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) was created to serve as a centralized repository ofR&D information, allowing DoD to easily and effectively leverage and share technical knowledge. However, its unfocused organizational model and legacy information platform are not suited to keep pace with global R&D, take advantage of Artificial Intelligence (AI), or integrate with other data and intelligence systems that support strategic deterrence-impacting R&D investment decisions by the Department of Defense. Therefore, I direct the following rationalization and AI-first digital transformation of DTIC to better meet the Secretary's priorities for the Department.”
