Purpose of CAI

The purpose of CAI is to identify and define new and potentially disruptive defense capabilities. The Center operates on these organizing principles:

Sources for military innovation and adaptation will no longer be limited to traditional means.
Many adaptations and innovations will come from advances in the commercial sector.
Current requirements and acquisition processes do not create capability at the required pace of the operating environment.
- Innovative thought will continue to provide strategic and operational advantage.
