High-purity germanium (Ge) is manufactured into infrared (IR) lenses for most DoD night sight IR optics, thermal imaging systems, and IR tracking systems in combat vehicles. A recent report by Umicore (ADA’s partner for this proposed project) identifies several current and future needs for Ge, showing growing needs in the middle of severe shortfall. These applications are essential for tracking ...

The Defense Logistics Agency aims to improve product availability and increase competition on a multitude of NSN items for the Nuclear Enterprise Support Office by introducing capable, small business suppliers through the Source Approval Request (SAR) process. Addition of approved sources for these critical/weapon system items can lead to reduced cost and decreased lead times. Expediting the procu ...

Increased competition and improved lead times are desired by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) to facilitate NESO in supporting the needs of the U.S. Air Force and U.S. Navy nuclear communities. Mainstream Engineering has carefully reviewed the technical data package for NSN 4810-01-269-4808 provided in the solicitation and is confident that we possess the manufacturing capability, quality manage ...

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) is seeking to automate parts of their procurement, logistics, and distribution processes by applying Augmented Reality (AR) solutions to increase efficiency and reduce costs. Vecna Robotics' world-leading automation consulting team is well-positioned to leverage a deep and broad understanding of advanced technology and its application to warehouse operations. Vec ...

Increased competition and improved lead times are desired by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) for the MILSTAR system battery assembly. Mainstream Engineerings unique integration of engineering, manufacturing, quality control, and integrated logistics support (ILS) provides the government with the best value for the proposed NSN.The MILSTAR nickel-metal hydride battery pack lacks sufficient comme ...

Universal Technology Corporation (UTC) has teamed with the University of Dayton Research Institute (UDRI), Stratonics, and Macy Consulting to demonstrate not only the transitionability into commercial systems, but also to develop the data analytics and monitoring and control requirements to extract the full value fromseveral sensors, including the Stratonics ThermaViz, acoustic and profilometry se ...

The Department of Defense (DoD) has a demand for out-of-production parts to maintain mission readiness of various weapons platforms. Additive manufacturing (AM) is an exciting and promising manufacturing technique that can make out-of-production parts and holds the potential to solve supply chain issues, such as high costs (i.e. for low-volume parts) and sole sourcing risks. The ability of AM to s ...

Additive Manufacturing (AM) is a modern and increasingly popular manufacturing process for metallic components, but suffers from well known problems of inconsistent quality of the finished product. Process monitoring and feedback control are therefore crucial research areas with a goal of solving this problem. To address this concern, X-wave Innovations, Inc. (XII) and the University of Dayton Res ...

Increased competition and improved lead times are desired by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) for a number of NESO items with annual demand values over $10,000 and fewer than two approved sources. Mainstream Engineerings unique integration of engineering, manufacturing, quality control, and integrated logistics support (ILS) provides the government with the best value for the proposed NSN.The B- ...
