Manufacturing Technologies
Abstract
The Manufacturing Technology (ManTech) program executes technical programs to maintain and develop an affordable and reliable industrial base and manufacturing capability that will be responsive to warfighter needs. The projects include development and improvement of manufacturing technologies and processes; collaboration with government program offices, industry, and academia; investments in generic technologies that can be applied to different applications, cost-sharing; multiple system/customer applications; potential for significant return on investment; and customer commitment to implement. To this end, ManTech develops and demonstrates advanced manufacturing processes and technologies to reduce costs, improve quality/capability, and shorten cycle times of weapon systems during design, development, production, and sustainment. Where mature processes are not available, laboratory-developed and demonstrated initial process capabilities are made available for transition into weapon system programs. ManTech objectives are conducted through partnerships with all industry levels, from large prime contractors to small material and parts vendors.
