ATEC accelerating Multi-Domain Operations virtual testing capabilities

In October 2023, the U.S. Army Test and Evaluation Command (ATEC) demonstrated a Multi-Domain Operations Distributed Live, Virtual, Constructive (LVC) Initial Operational Capability across ATEC’s geographically diverse sites on a distributed network. Since that demonstration, ATEC has been maturing its capability by creating even more complex virtual environments, which are critical to ATEC’s digital transformation and the Army’s ability to test and evaluate cutting-edge technologies faster and more efficiently.

ATEC streamlining Safety Release process to accelerate evaluation

Safety is one of the U.S. Army Test and Evaluation Command (ATEC)’s most critical considerations as it helps Army senior leaders determine whether to provide a piece of equipment to Soldiers. Today, in support of Army transformation, ATEC is significantly streamlining the Safety Release process, combining speed with rigor to help put crucial systems in Soldiers’ hands faster than ever before.

ATEC’S DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION

Data mesh revolutionizes U.S. Army Test and Evaluation Command’s ability to help speed capability to the hands of warfighters.

ATEC needed a more efficient means to transport data to analysts, better systems, tools and processes for analysts to work with data sets rapidly growing in size and complexity and serve evaluations and insights to the acquisition community.
