Promotion and Protection Strategies

Abstract

This Program Element (PE) is established to execute activities to balance the promotion and protection of technologies. For the Biotechnology MEMBER initiative, work executed under this PE line will bring together the Acquisition (e.g., PEOs, PMs, technology warrant officers, etc.), Policy, and Research and Engineering communities to establish a Biotechnology War Room (BWR). The War Room will ensure integration of innovative biomanufactured products into DoD’s systems and platforms through holistic acquisition and investment strategies. The Biotechnology War Room (BWR) will create the first coordinating body at DoD to centralize acquisition efforts for biotechnology. By providing visibility, fostering partnerships across DoD, and incentivizing industry transition partners, the BWR will support a developmental ecosystem in which new technologies are not only pushed to higher BACs from lower ones, but where personnel and industry partners at higher BACs pull on technologies being developed at lower ones. This will serve as the nucleus of a defense industrial base for biotechnology that delivers innovative biomanufactured products into DoD’s systems and platforms.
