Derived Problem Statement: How to increase the depth, breadth, and diversity

of research focused on U.S. Army problems?

Derived Mission: U.S. Army Research Lab – South extends the lab presence

geographically to develop science and technology relationships which

strengthen research on U.S. Army problems in order to accelerate

technology transition to the warfighter.

Key Tasks:

- Build trust with select regional academia and industry bodies

- Share information on U.S. Army gaps in essential research areas

- Establish collaboration mechanisms and increase communication

- Increase successful joint proposals and collaborative research on gaps

- Increase two-way access to scientists & engineers; infrastructure; ideas

See environment, see ourselves, see opportunities and risk

Construct

• No new ARL funding

• Each new ARL campus has primary research focus areas

– Other regional collaborators can connect – “hub & spokes”

• ARL will partner with multiple regional institutions

– ARL staff will be present under a CRADA at host site

– ARL could establish Cooperative Agreements with each site to facilitate funding actions (supplies, etc.)

• Mix of Government & non-Government people recruited locally

– ARL staff

– Faculty Appointments (professors can be ARL employees up to 130 days per year)

– Students, professors, contractors

– Other Government organizations

– Current ARL staff will spend significant time at new campuses

UNCLASSIFIED


Bottom Line

ARL is rapidly expanding our outreach opportunities to realize

new technology transitions
