Technology Transition (ACD&P)

Abstract

This project (TT4) validates high-risk/high-payoff technologies and their respective concepts-of-operations for significant improvement to Warfighter capabilities in preparation for transition of mature technologies to advanced development programs requiring chemical and biological (CB) defense technologies. These programs offer an opportunity to identify and efficiently mature emerging technologies from laboratory experiments to acquisition programs through risk reduction, engineering and integration. These demonstrations and programs seek to demonstrate the potential for enhanced military operational capability and/or cost effectiveness. Upon conclusion of the technical and operational demonstrations, the user or sponsor provides a determination of the military utility and operational impact of the technology and capability demonstrated. Successfully demonstrated technologies with proven military utility can either be left in place for extended user evaluations, accepted into advanced stages of the formal acquisition process, proceed directly into limited or full-scale production or be returned to the technical base for further development. This project funds efforts to enhance technology transition for two Advanced Technology Demonstration (ATD) areas: Integrated Early Warning (IEW), and Integrated Layered Defense (ILD). The IEW ATD family of products achieve enhanced command and control decision making capabilities as a result of a combined and orchestrated family of chemical and biological defense systems deployed on various platforms in strategic locations. The ILD ATD family of products achieve solutions for capability gaps across medical and non-medical commodity areas to enable warfighter survival and rapid recovery in CBRN environments.
