The US Navy is partnering with industry and academia on a multi-phase CTMA initiative with an overarching goal of vastly improving legacy processes and facilities in a 3-stage approach starting with a deep understanding of the current processes necessary to bring products to market. This phase is primarily focused on identifying equipment and process solutions that increase throughput and quality; identifying and simulating facility reconfiguration and construction opportunities to optimize the physical layout of various installations with new equipment; and evaluating opportunities for enterprise equipment standardization.
