On April 3-5, 2024, the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine's Board on Army Research and Development convened a workshop to examine the potential use of integration readiness levels (IRLs) to speed technology transition in U.S. Army acquisition. The workshop planning committee consisted of experts in systems integration, systems engineering, military operations, and experts in specific technology areas relevant to Army systems. While the Army does not formally use IRLs in acquisitions, recent discussions across the national security community and the Department of Defense prompted the Office of the Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Army for Research and Technology to request that the National Academies convene a workshop to explore the origin of IRLs, their current use (or lack thereof) in government and industry, and their potential to support Army acquisitions.
