Chemical and Biological Defense Program Technology Transition Handbook
Abstract
The purpose of this handbook is to provide guidance and establish procedures to facilitate the smooth, effective, and timely transition of technologies and technical information developed by Science and Technology (S&T) projects from the Joint Science and Technology Office (JSTO) to the Joint Program Executive Office for Chemical and Biological Defense (JPEO-CBD) Joint Project Manager (JPM). Transition into acquisition programs/programs of record will be accomplished by "leveraging the best technology available from both government and commercial sources" to "rapidly transition technology into new material systems" to reduce or resolve warfighter capability gaps. A key enabler for evolutionary acquisition and reduced cycle time is to have technology that is sufficiently mature to be fielded in a relatively short time. This document provides guidance for the transition of all defense science and technology base systems and components, Defense Technology Objective (DTO) Programs, and Advanced Concept Technology Demonstrations (ACTD) executed within or transitioned into the Chemical Biological Defense Program (CBDP). It also encompasses S&T programs and unsolicited proposals from other DoD agencies and non-governmental organizations assimilated into the JSTO developmental process.
