Description (excerpt)
This announcement is issued on behalf of the Navy Manufacturing Technology (ManTech) Program. The focus of this research and development opportunity is on targeted manufacturing improvements to directly impact speed, throughput, and industrial base resiliency. This is vital for developing the next generation of manufacturing capabilities that will enable the ability to build faster, arm faster, and repair faster. We seek innovations that will fundamentally improve the efficiency of our shipyards, maintenance depots, and supply chain partners. Offerors must clearly articulate how their proposed research will dismantle existing barriers and contribute to a more robust and responsive industrial ecosystem, improving the resilience and competitiveness of the Nation’s shipbuilding enterprise.
