Abstract

The purpose of the Best Manufacturing Practices (BMP) survey conducted at this facility was to identify their best practices, review manufacturing problems, and document the results.

The actual exchange of detailed data will be between contractors at their discretion. The intent of the BMP program is to use this documentation as the initial step in a voluntary technology sharing process among the industry.
