2. Science & Technology (S&T) Review

TRADOC conducts an annual (December-April) review of all Army 6.1, 6.2, and 6.3 S&T work efforts. The purpose of the review is to give the combat developer an opportunity to review and assess the relevance of the S&T work efforts to the warfighters' concepts. It also provides feedback to the materiel developers on the relative merits of each S&T work effort. The results from the S&T review will be used by the combat developer to identify potential Science and Technology Objectives (STO) candidates. It also provides information on perceived shortfalls and redundancies in the Army S&T work efforts.
