Unpacking INDUS-X with Dr. Sameer Lalwani

DESCRIPTION:

How is the science and technology relationship between the United States and India evolving? What can we do to increase U.S.-Indian defense industry cooperation? The India-U.S. Defense Acceleration Ecosystem, aka "INDUS-X", was established in June 2023 to deepen this national security collaboration and build a "defense innovation bridge" between the two countries. INDUS-X has led to a series of partnerships between U.S. and Indian government agencies, companies, and universities to date.

To learn more about U.S.-Indian cooperation and INDUS-X, please join us for a conversation with Dr. Sameer Lalwani, a senior expert on South Asia at the U.S. Institute of Peace and non-resident senior fellow with the Center for Strategic and Budgetary Assessments.

PPBE Commission Report: Moving Money at the Speed of Innovation, Part 1

What is DoD's Planning, Programming, Budgeting, and Execution (PPBE) system, and how does it succeed and fail to direct resources to the correct programs and projects to ensure that the best-performing capabilities are quickly and affordably delivered to the warfighter? The Legislative Commission on Planning, Programming, Budgeting, and Execution (PPBE) Reform recently published its final report on this topic, proposing sweeping reforms to the process. The Commission, created by the FY22 National Defense Authorization Act, released a suite of recommendations that would change every aspect of PPBE from the way that national strategies are translated into DoD plans, the lines of communication between Congress and DoD, and the actual methods of managing the Department's finances.
