This strategic plan guides investment and management priorities for the collective Department of Defense (DoD) Research and Engineering (R & E) program. While each Service and Agency with an R & E program has specific responsibilities to plan, program, and execute programs to meet their specific Component's needs, this strategy develops a broader context that fosters coordination of Service and Agency efforts to provide complete and integrated DoD capabilities. Each of the Services and Agencies R & E programs should leverage and complement each others efforts in an integrated program and framework. Indeed, the objective for all efforts within the R & E program should be to meet the larger Defense Department enterprise's needs efficiently and effectively, achieving the greatest degree of collaboration and coordination possible. There is no single priority, principle, capability, or technology that constitutes a successful DoD R & E program; but rather a number of priorities and a portfolio of technologies that support the National Security Strategy and the Quadrennial Defense Review (QDR). This R & E strategic plan identifies these higher-valued principles, capabilities, and technologies that are used to guide the investment and management of the DoD R & E program. The result is a proactive R & E program.
