End Item Industrial Preparedness Activities
Abstract
This Program Element (PE) develops, demonstrates, and transitions manufacturing processes that enable improvements in producibility and affordability of emerging and enabling components and subsystems of Army ground and air platforms, Soldier systems, weapons systems, air & missile defense systems, and sensors and electronics. Initiatives within the PE result in cost savings and reduced risk of transitioning military-unique manufacturing processes into production. Project E25 fosters the transfer of new/improved manufacturing technologies to the industrial base, including manufacturing efforts that have potential for high payoff across the spectrum of Army systems. The cited work is consistent with the Under Secretary of Defense, Research and Engineering science and technology focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy. Work in this PE is performed by: the U.S. Army Futures Command; The U.S. Army Medical Research and Materiel Command (MRMC), Ft. Detrick, MD; and the Army Space and Missile Defense Command/Army Forces Strategic Command (SMDC/ARSTRAT), Huntsville, AL.
