Manufacturing Innovation Institutes

Abstract

DoD supports eight manufacturing innovation institutes which are public/private partnerships that address both commercial and defense manufacturing needs within specific, defense-relevant technology areas and receive active participation and support from the military departments and defense agencies. The institutes’ flexible business models and strong focus on enabling highly collaborative R&D are catalyzing important new organizational relationships across government, industry and academia. This is bringing together both traditional defense and non-traditional sectors, accelerating key innovation cycles and expanding U.S. industrial capability and assisting in creating resilient supply chains that will support innovative defense products.
