    • Planned (i.e., engaging & sustaining stakeholders, currency),
    • Representative (i.e., of mission, users & environment),
    • Statistically Designed, (i.e., efficient, balanced, defensible),
    • Modelled (i.e., linked to timely, increasingly needed for defensible),
    • Measured (i.e., KPIs),
    • Supportable (i.e., includes wherewithal through life)
  • Initiatives in organizational policy and processes for test and evaluation, especially to deal with complexity, new technology, digitization, and AI.
