CORPORATE INVESTMENTS
Abstract
The Corporate Investments activity is focused on accelerating defense industrial enterprise progress toward implementation of world-class industrial practices as well as advanced design and information systems that support weapon system development, production, and sustainment. Key emphasis areas include: 1) Benchmarking and accelerating the implementation of world-class industrial practices throughout the contractor base; 2) Demonstrating and validating advanced business practices and information technologies capable of streamlining management functions in all industrial base tiers; and 3) Leveraging information technologies in pursuit of tighter coupling of all defense industrial enterprise elements. Corporate Investment efforts create improvements to cost and cycle time for weapon system development, production, and repair. Additionally, Corporate Investments include the funding of recently identified near-term high priority shipbuilding affordability efforts for the following shipbuilding platforms - DDG-51, CVN-78 Class Carrier (previously CVN-21), VIRGINIA Class Submarine (VCS), and Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) as well as the Joint Strike Fighter (JSF). The increase from FY 2011 through FY 2013 reflects alignment to manufacturing priorities.
