ANG Modernization Summary
Resources – AF Budget supplemented by National
Guard and Reserve Equipment Appropriation (NGREA)
Bottom-up, field-driven requirements determine
funding allocation (Mod and DOERs books)

Interaction with industry to create Off-The-Shelf
Solutions
ANG works with Air Force program offices and
vendors during program execution (fly before we buy)
Resource (NGREA) + Requirement (WEPTAC) + Agile Test Capability (AATC) =
80% solution NOW at lower cost

AATC Fully Integrated Test
Work with industry to focus IRAD on
documented modernization priorities
ANG provides flight testing
opportunities and feedback
Systems must be mature enough to
procure
Integrated approach - ANG project
managers work closely with AF and
vendors on procurement
ANG PMs are in place longer; lead
projects from creation to fielding
Continuity builds relationships,
enhances efficiency and progress
