### Project DY7 — Army Systems Engineering, Architecture & Analysis

This project is advancing its modernization efforts by digitally transforming across the Capability Portfolio Executive in support of the Assistant Secretary of the Army (Acquisition, Logistics and Technology)'s (ASA(ALT)) Mission. This project focuses on integrating data, engineering, and SoS architecture analysis to transform modernization planning and accelerate the delivery of mission-critical capabilities. By implementing CI/ CD models, adaptable System of Systems (SoS) engineering, interoperability and technical risk analysis, ASA(ALT) is ensuring the rapid fielding of minimal viable products (MVPs) that meet the evolving needs of the force. Key digital transformation efforts include the development of flexible engineering processes, integrated SoS architecture products, and risk mitigation planning to optimize the Army's materiel portfolio. These efforts are enabled by the establishment of modern engineering policies, requirements aligned to CI/CD models, and synchronization of resources and acquisitions to address cross-portfolio challenges. A key focus is placed on cyber security and interoperability to ensure that all systems are secure by design, resilient against cyber threats, and seamlessly integrated across the Army's digital ecosystem. ASA(ALT)'s digital transformation initiatives are revolutionizing how capabilities are developed, delivered, and integrated to meet the demands of modern warfare. data reference architectures are enabling decision dominance by providing commanders with timely, actionable data while eliminating institutional barriers to Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) adoption. Modern software practices, such as secure coding principles and Development, Security, and Operations (DevSecOps) methodologies, ensure the delivery of adaptable, cyber-resilient capabilities that are secure by design. Automated interoperability assessments and compliance frameworks are embedded into the engineering process to guarantee seamless operation across joint and coalition environments, enhancing mission effectiveness and operational cohesion. As the Army embraces digital transformation, data-centricity becomes the backbone of battlefield communication, enabling faster and more informed decision-making.

**Named R-3 performers** (share of this project's FY2027 R-3 total, so they need not reach 100%)**:** Office of the Chief Systems Engineer (OC (6.9, 26%).
