DoD ManTech and its Partners Observe Manufacturing Month
Washington —
Every year, DoD ManTech and the DoD Manufacturing Innovation Institutes (MIIs) commemorate Manufacturing Month by inspiring and educating the public about American manufacturing - why it’s a critical part of the Nation’s defense strategy and how it strengthens and preserves a strong U.S. economy. Congress created the Department of Defense Manufacturing Technology Program (DoD ManTech) nearly 70 years ago, recognizing the need to invest in maturing manufacturing technologies, and enhancing the skills and capabilities of the American industrial base, including the people who work within it.
