In developing needed manufacturing technology for key acquisition platforms, Navy ManTech ensures implemented technologies are both producible and affordable. ManTech alone, however, cannot ensure implementation in a system. The EMTC coordinates with the relevant Navy and industry representatives to identify all requirements that must be met to ensure ManTech transition and to achieve implementation on the platform/weapon system and/or at an industrial/naval organic facility.

Industry takes technology available from the government and explores successful commercialization possibilities; for example, airbags from military gas generators. Government takes technology available from the private sector and applies it to energetics manufacturing; for example, pharmaceutical industry equipment modified to mix energetic material ingredients. Technology transfer provides the military products at lower costs with higher quality, greater reliability, and easier maintainability.

Energetics Advancement is needed to keep pace and enable new warfighting concepts.
