CTMA Project Announcements

The US Department of Defense is partnering with industry and academia on an initiative to advance the state of the art in advanced engineering and manufacturing tools and processes to streamline the conversion of aluminum parts from conventional to advanced manufacturing using original technical data packages (TDP)s.

The US Department of Defense is partnering with industry and academia on an initiative to advance casting and foundry manufacturing technologies by integrating specific technologies into a modular, scalable digital foundry system that can be set in forward type environments.

The US Department of Defense is partnering with industry and academia on a multiphase CTMA initiative to establish a repeatable, scalable model for the fleet-wide integration of small, unmanned surface vessels (sUSV) systems that address standardization of maintenance and sustainment procedures.

The US Department of Defense is partnering with industry and academia on a multiphase CTMA initiative to advance the state of the art in Model Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) tools and processes to improve technology integration, maintenance and sustainment activities, and resource and program decision making across various product lifecycles.

The US Department of Defense is partnering with industry and academia on a multiphase CTMA initiative to leverage the power of Generative AI to enhance the efficiency, agility, and resilience of the Defense Logistics Agency’s (DLA) supply chain operations.

The US Department of Defense is partnering with industry and academia on a multiphase CTMA initiative to demonstrate how advanced concept hardware and associated products for a Composite Rigid-Wall Shelter (CRWS) Type A can integrate with other existing mobile shelter systems and provide performance improvements.

The US Department of Defense is partnering with industry and academia on an initiative to leverage advanced design testing and manufacturing tools and processes to develop and test new carbon air filters to meet emerging technical specifications and testing standards. Using the M48A1 Filter as a surrogate, this effort will provide a new innovative approach of implementing carbon filter testing processes and design and manufacturing techniques to pass first article test (FAT).

The US Department of Defense is partnering with industry and academia on a multiphase CTMA initiative to advance the state of the art in the advanced manufacturing and supply chain technologies and processes to demonstrate how reliability methods can help produce better products on schedule, within reduced costs, and require less maintenance.
