Space Force Aligns for Wartime Footing with Third Tranche of PAEs
ARLINGTON, Va. (AFNS) —
In the latest milestone of the ongoing Department of War-driven Acquisition Transformation, the Space Force has designated its third tranche of mission areas that will be assigned Portfolio Acquisition Executives including: Advanced Capabilities, Electromagnetic Warfare and Cyber, and Space Combat Power.
“Moving our portfolios into the PAE model completes a vital shift in our culture and operations,” said Thomas Ainsworth, performing the duties of the assistant secretary of the Air Force for space acquisition and integration. “By pushing accountability and authority down to the mission level across every single capability we field and all our acquisition avenues, we are cutting through legacy bureaucracy. The Space Force is now positioned to design, acquire, and field integrated systems at the speed of relevance.”
The portfolios are broadly arranged by mission area to minimize cross-organizational seams and dependencies while strengthening integration.
