Programs of Record (POR) for years have been the mainstay of Department of Defense (DoD) acquisition and order of battle. Gradually, and with increasing momentum, Non-Program of Record (NPOR) procurements have become a wartime adjustment to the ever-evolving security environment facing the United States (U.S.) and its partners. NPORs align with U.S. national security interests by furthering the U.S. industrial base, providing coalition forces expedited and flexible capabilities while increasing interoperability with U.S. forces, and delivering capabilities that were not, or could not have been, foreseen even months earlier.
