Experience suggests that structural issues in how institutional Astrophysics approaches data-driven science and the development of discovery technology may be hampering the communitys ability to respond effectively to a rapidly changing environment in which increasingly complex, heterogeneous datasets are challenging our existing information infrastructure and traditional approaches to analysis. We stand at the confluence of a new epoch of multimessenger science, remote co-location of data and processing power and new observing strategies based on miniaturized spacecraft. Significant effort will be required by the community to adapt to this rapidly evolving range of possible discovery moduses. In the suggested creation of a new Astrophysics element, Advanced Astrophysics Discovery Technology, we offer an affirmative solution that places the visibility of discovery technologies at a level that we suggest is fully commensurate with their importance to the future of the field.
