The Secretary of Defense established the Defense Manufacturing Technology (ManTech) Program to develop and apply advanced manufacturing technologies to reduce the total cost and improve the manufacturing quality of weapon systems. By maturing and validating emerging manufacturing technology and transferring it to the factory floor, the program bridges the gap between technology invention and industrial application. The program has existed in various forms since the 1950s and was funded at about $200 million in fiscal year 2001. The Department of Defense (DOD), Office of the Under Secretary of Defense (Science and Technology), provides guidance and oversight to the Army, Navy, Air Force and the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA), but each establishes its own policies and procedures for operating the program and determines which technologies to develop for its weapon systems and other programs. Users of the ManTech Program include program and project managers for defense weapon systems, system commands, depots, air logistics centers, and shipyards.

For over 50 years, the DoD Manufacturing Technology (ManTech) Program has been the Department's investment mechanism for staying at the forefront of defense-essential manufacturing capability. This strategic plan is the Department's formal vehicle to unify and guide the ManTech community and support the broader defense manufacturing enterprise in delivering maximum value to the warfighter and the nation. The strategic planning process validated, through stakeholder interviews, ManTech's continued relevance in the coming years and squarely placed ManTech in the critical role of delivering affordability for defense acquisition and sustainment. This plan reinvigorates ManTech's central role within the DoD technology transition process with a renewed emphasis on the ManTech Vision and a formal statement of the ManTech Mission. These are then translated into four Strategic Thrusts and nine Enabling Goals to provide guidance and perspective for the Program.
