That\u2019s always in the back of your mind,\u201d Stacey Dixon, deputy director of the Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity, said Sept. 6 at the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/smr\/defense-news-conference\/\">Defense News conference<\/a>. \u201cIt does impact what you\u2019re planning over the course of a year. If I could encourage anything it would be for Congress to really think about the impact you\u2019re having on agencies with these continuing resolutions. It\u2019s not a good thing for government, and they have the power to fix that.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Across the Defense Department leaders have pushed to integrate innovation into antiquated acquisition systems plagued by years-long lead times. IARPA, alongside organizations like the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, Defense Innovation Unit-Experimental and the Army Rapid Capabilities Office all came to fruition as ways to get around bureaucratic red tape plaguing procurement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">DIUx and the Army RCO in particular are recently launched offices that rely on partnerships with other agencies and industry to achieve innovation. Under this model, DoD organizations put in some money, then industry \u2013 often venture capitalists \u2013 also contribute funds to develop a technology or capability, said Sean Singleton, DIUx director of business and marketing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cCongress has given us great freedom to actually leverage our research and engineering and [operations and maintenance] money actually go ahead and evaluate projects on an actual deal-by-deal basis,\u201d Singleton said. \u201cWe\u2019ve had companies that have gone off and done $1 million worth of work for the Department of Defense then have gotten $10 million worth of venture capital because they\u2019re working toward something that proves out their business model. So Congress has given us the financial freedom to go out and actually use that dry powder in a very judicious way, and that\u2019s how we\u2019re able to go to market.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But that model could be threatened by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/smr\/defense-news-conference\/2017\/09\/06\/pentagon-comptroller-warns-of-corrosive-wasteful-of-multiple-continuing-resolutions\/\">ongoing continuing resolutions<\/a> that fail to provide guidance and adequate support to program managers and decision-makers looking to field capabilities as soon as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI always think of the scene at the end of \u2018The Right Stuff\u2019 where Chuck Yeager\u2019s just broken the sound barrier and the news reporters call him back\u2026a conversation occurs where he says, \u2018It\u2019s funding. Funding makes those aircraft fly,\u2019\u201d said Col. Joe Capobianco, Army RCO chief of staff. Lawmakers maintain \u201ca level of oversight and a level of comfort with tens or hundreds of millions of dollars. That\u2019s real money, that\u2019s taxpayer money. With DoD, at times, it may seem like less money at times but there\u2019s that tension\u2026Congress wants, justifiably so, oversight and appropriation against things that are important to them. And at the same time they\u2019re trying to find ways to have specific amounts of money and more flexibility to allow innovation to occur.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pentagon leaders want to integrate innovation into antiquated acquisition systems, but a CR may threaten
