If we can't make it, the warfighter can't have it!
United States manufacturing and innovation are essential to American economic and national security. Maintaining U.S. influence and access to markets in a stable global environment contributes to our prosperity and standard of living. It is the responsibility of the Department of Defense (DoD) to innovate and equip our forces with the best tools possible, made by Americans. The DoD Manufacturing Technology (ManTech) enterprise attempts to utilize advanced manufacturing to secure a more lethal force, strengthen alliances and new partnerships, and reform the Department for greater performance and affordability.
Administered by the Office of the Secretary of Defense Manufacturing Technology Office in the Office of the Under Secretary for Research and Engineering, this website provides the latest descriptions, news, and events related to the DoD ManTech enterprise.
