The name change comes nearly a year after the office underwent a revamp in which it absorbed several organizations from the Program Executive Office of Enterprise Information Systems.
No current contracts, awards, jobs or physical moves are being affected by the PEOs restructuring, an Army spokesman said, but the reorg aims to streamline technical capabilities.
Reducing cognitive overload on warfighters while improving “time to trust” for autonomous systems is a matter of design.
Mark Kitz succeeds Maj. Gen. Anthony Potts, who led the office since June last year.
The way the historic PEO organizations were initially set up was “for a reason,” but now the Army is modernizing, and the shift is needed to support its unified network, Young Bang said.
