Dual Use Technology (DUAP) /Commercial Technology for Maintenance Activities (CTMA)
Abstract
The Commercial Technology and Maintenance Activities (CTMA) program is a cooperative agreement between National Center for Manufacturing Sciences (NCMS) and the Deputy Under Secretary of Defense for Logistics and Materiel Readiness to co-sponsor technology development, deployment and validation with DoD organic maintenance activities and NCMS member companies. NCMS is a not-for-profit collaborative research consortium of North American corporations. It is the largest cross-industry consortium in the United States (240 member companies with an annual Reseach and Development (R&D) project portfolio exceeding $80 million). The primary goals of the program are to transfer best commercial technologies and best practices to the Department of Defense (DoD) maintenance activities via NCMS member companies. By partnering with NCMS members, the DoD maintenance activities are able to assess the benefits of new manufacturing technologies in their own facilities. They work with industry leaders in solving manufacturing problems through collaboration. The Department of the Army, Defense Supply Service Washington (DSSW) is the contracting office for the program. The statement of work in the CTMA contract, DASW01-98-0002, remains essentially unchanged since the original contract was issued in FY 1998, and subsequent year funding has been added to the contract by modification.
