Technology Industrial Innovation Base

Abstract

This project uses a three-step approach: (1) Assess, (2) Protect/Promote; and (3) Monitor. In the first step, TIIB uses emerging technology assessments to translate technology needs to manufacturing and industrial innovation base requirements in order to identify industrial innovation base issues, risks, and opportunities. TIIB created an assessment methodology that incorporates four types of studies to provide a full overview of the technology from a manufacturing and industrial innovation base point of view. The results of the assessments are used to generate industrial-innovation-base inputs to technology roadmaps, develop an investment plan addressing the needs of the industrial innovation base, and create technology and industrial innovation base protection and promotion strategies (second step of the approach). TIIB leverages DoD and Federal Government tools and initiatives to implement the strategies. In the third step, TIIB uses data analytics to measure the success of mitigation and exploitation strategies, establish trends in the markets, and identify the need for additional assessments or changes in investments and strategies. TIIB applied these three steps to Advanced Battery Supply Chain Disruptions, Capabilities within the Directed Energy Industrial Base, DoD Battery Standardization for 2030, Directed Energy Early Supply Chain, and began an assessment of the Strength and Resilience of the U.S. Quantum Technology Supply Chain. Additionally, TIIB organized and hosted the Trusted AI and Autonomous Systems (TAIA) Defense Technology Review Conference, the inaugural Hypersonics Horizontal Protection Workshop, and the Hypersonics Government-Industry Engagement Event (HGIEE).
