ASA(ALT) Mission - Vision

Mission

Our mission is to effectively and efficiently develop, acquire, field, and sustain materiel

by leveraging domestic and international, organic, and commercial technologies and

capabilities to meet the Army's current and future mission requirements.

Vision

Our vision is to equip and sustain the world's most capable, powerful,

and respected Army.

Credo

Our first responsibility is to the Soldier who protects and preserves our Nation. We

strive to meet the needs of the Soldier at war while innovating to respond to the

rapidly evolving threat environment. In meeting the needs of Soldiers, who are

deployed by combatant commanders to put their boots on the ground, we ensure the

production of the highest-quality capabilities -- to provide the right product, at the right

place, and at the right time. As the single decision authority on all matters regarding

acquisition, we ensure that America's Army is equipped for the 21st century.

Our second responsibility is to the Acquisition Workforce, the men and women who

work daily to ensure quality products for the Soldier. We must ensure the readiness

and sustainment of a professional civilian and military workforce. We must promote

leadership and professional development within this workforce. We must ensure that

individual skill sets are matched with relevant work requirements. We must promote

an environment of open communication, in which our workforce can excel in their

vital roles to equip and sustain the world's premier fighting force.

Our next responsibility is to our partners -- Army, Joint, Industry, International, and

Academia. We work with our partners to develop, acquire, deliver, and sustain weapon

systems and capabilities for Soldiers. We must collaborate effectively to ensure our

Soldiers are rapidly equipped with the products they need. We must work closely

with our partners to continually improve the quality and interoperability of

Army capabilities.

Our final responsibility is to the American Public. We must be good stewards of

taxpayer dollars and work continuously to achieve the highest levels of effectiveness

and efficiency in our business processes. We must communicate effectively to those

who represent the public to ensure they understand the impact that ASA(ALT) and

the Acquisition Enterprise have on their constituents. We must remain connected to

the people we serve and the communities we depend upon for support.
