NECC Additive Manufacturing

Abstract

NECC Additive Manufacturing: In accordance with the National Defense Strategy (NDS), A Design for Maintaining Maritime Superiority 2.0, and Navy Facility Command (NAVFAC) Strategic Design 2.0, this program provides the Navy with new capabilities to enable resilient and agile logistics thru additive manufacturing (AM). Investing in AM enhances the fleet's ability to conduct operational logistics in a contested environment and ensures logistics supportability across the austere distributed battlespace. AM technology results in increased operational availability, on demand production of critical systems, and supply chain cost savings. This effort will identify critical parts suitable for AM production in the field; identify AM systems appropriate to produce and certify critical parts in the field; analyze and identify AM system implications across doctrine, organization, training, materiel, leadership and education, personnel, facilities and policy (DOTMLPF-P); conduct end-user training, field experimentation, and fleet exercise technology insertion to validate AM system capability and systems integration issues.
