    Welcome to U.S. Army Evaluation Center

    Stryker Vehicle

    The Army Evaluation Center (AEC) plans and conducts independent evaluations and assessments of acquisition programs to provide essential information to key Department of Defense decision makers and Soldiers.

    The three U.S. military departments have all undertaken initiatives to link the tests of systems under development with the operational tests that involve test exercises in the field. To reach this goal, the Army reorganized its test and evaluation program in October 1999 to place developmental and operational testing under one command. The Army Evaluation Center, headquartered with ATEC in Alexandria, evaluates the data obtained from both types of tests to determine a system's operational effectiveness, suitability, and survivability.
