Technology Transfer

Abstract

Technology Transfer was titled Defense Technology Transfer and Defense Technology Link (TechLink) in previous OSD budgets. This program was devolved from OSD to achieve efficiencies in program management. The three-fold mission of Technology Transfer is: (1) integrate advanced commercial-sector technologies into Department of Defense (DoD) systems, particularly from non-traditional defense contractors; (2) convey DoD-developed technologies to industry to make these technologies available for military acquisition; and (3) establish collaborative Research and Development (R&D) projects with the private sector for cost-sharing of new dual-use technology development. This program is in Budget Activity 4, Advanced Component Development and Prototypes (ACD&P) because efforts are necessary to evaluate integrated technologies, representative modes or prototype systems in a high fidelity and realistic operating environment.
