Naval Medical Research and Development Strategic Plan

Abstract

With a legacy of outstanding science, agility, and innovation, Naval Medical Research and Development (NMR&D) has proudly accomplished its mission - conducting health and medical research, development, testing, evaluation, and surveillance to enhance the operational readiness and performance of DoD personnel worldwide - for over sixty years. It is critical for NMR&D to build on that legacy, to remain capable of accomplishing that mission, and to achieve its vision - world-class, operationally relevant health and medical research solutions anytime, anywhere! - in the years ahead. NMR&D has completed a six-month period of long-range strategic planning, based on Lean Six Sigma principles. Our aim was to assess and improve our current position, with a focus on how we could best meet the needs of and create value for our customers for the next three to five years, ensuring continued alignment with Navy, Marine Corps, and Navy Medicine. This Strategic Plan is the result of that initiative, outlining key strategic themes and providing related objectives and initiatives (see page 11, Table 2, and Appendices B and C), that will enable NMR&D to remain a premier research organization.range strategic planning, based on Lean Six Sigma principles.
