Navy ManTech projects are executed through the Navy ManTech Centers of Excellence (COEs). The COEs were established as focal points for the development and transition of new manufacturing processes and equipment in a cooperative environment with industry, academia and the Naval Research Enterprise.
The COEs:
- Execute projects and manage project teams
- Serve as a corporate expertise in technological areas
- Collaborate with acquisition program offices and industry to identify and resolve manufacturing issues
- Develop and demonstrate manufacturing technology solutions for identified Navy requirements
- Provide consulting services to naval industrial activities and industry
- Facilitate transfer of developed technologies
ManTech COEs
The program currently has seven centers engaged in ManTech activities. The centers and their corresponding core competencies are listed below:
- Center for Naval Metalworking (CNM)
- Composites Manufacturing Technology Center (CMTC)
- Electronics Manufacturing Center (EMC)
- Electro-Optics Center (EOC)
- Energetics Manufacturing Technology Center (EMTC)
- Institute for Manufacturing and Sustainment Technologies (iMAST)
- Naval Shipbuilding and Advanced Manufacturing (NSAM) Center
