Rapid Technology Transition (RTT)

Abstract

The mission of the RTT project is to increase the rate that new, innovative, and potentially disruptive technologies are inserted into DON acquisition programs and the hands of the warfighter. A key aspect of the RTT project is its charter to transition technology from any source, including those not traditionally associated with defense technology. An effective and robust integration of commercial and military technologies can reduce costs and improve naval capabilities by keeping pace with the fast moving changes in technologies and operational needs. The RTT project is structured to bring transition deals to closure quickly, and to provide execution year funding for a rapid start, bridging the gap until the program of record can fund the completion of the technology insertion. Funding reduction from FY 2012 to FY 2013 reflect realignment of funding to higher priority Naval needs.
