INDUSTRIAL BASE ANALYSIS AND SUSTAINMENT PROGRAM
The Industrial Base Analysis and Sustainment program directs investment by identifying strategy/focus areas, obtaining resources, and overseeing execution of projects, aiming to ameliorate industrial base and manufacturing issues and strengthen the defense industrial base. All projects are evaluated for industrial base risk using a framework of risk assessment methodologies and tools, such as fragility and criticality risk criteria, to develop feasible and effective course of actions. Key areas of Industrial Base Analysis and Sustainment investment include:
- Advancing and sustaining both traditional and emerging defense manufacturing sectors
- Preserving critical and unique manufacturing and design skills
- Supporting and expanding reliable sources
- Identifying and mitigating supply chain vulnerabilities, including cyber, manufacturing, and trade skills vulnerabilities
