The 2014 Task Plan for the Automatic Test Committee (ATC) outlines proposed tasks aimed at strengthening government and industry liaison across various branches of the military. Key initiatives include industry surveys to identify Smart Automatic Test System opportunities, software architecture development for synthetic instrumentation, and the delivery of semi-annual reports on the ATC website. Coordination is essential, with meetings scheduled in March/April at NDIA HQ and September in St. Louis. Challenges due to reduced defense budgets are acknowledged, prompting flexible scheduling to enhance participation.
