On Wednesday, the United States Department of Defensereleased the National Defense Industrial Strategy (NDIS) Interim Implementation Report, highlighting the progress that DoD is making toward implementing the NDIS: https://lnkd.in/e9_s2KTw “This report conveys the commitment that the Department has made to achieving the priorities outlined in the National Defense Industrial Strategy since January,” said Assistant Secretary of Defense for Industrial Base Policy, Dr. Laura Taylor-Kale. “Among other activities, we are increasing our domestic production capabilities, educating and training the current and future defense industrial workforce, exploring new ways to lower the barriers to entry for small and non-traditional businesses, and strengthening collaboration with allies and partners.” The report details ongoing DoD-wide initiatives that demonstrate DoD’s progress towards building a resilient industrial base. Further details on NDIS implementation will be forthcoming later this summer.
