Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The methodology for this study included: study of technology transfer barriers and catalysts; interviews with key people inside and outside DARPA; and research relative to previous studies, bearing on the subject of technology transfer as relates to DARPA. Differences between the role of DARPA contrasted with that of the Services and other Agencies make smooth technology transfer to the Services/Agencies a difficult process, particularly as regards the Large Technology Demonstrations. It is fundamental that the Services/Agencies are the ultimate procurers of material resulting from successful DARPA initiatives. Hence, an optimal system for technology transfer, one which is comfortable both to DARPA and the Services/Agencies is of great importance to the nation. DARPA's role and philosophy can be broadly characterized as: Opportunity driven, Creative new concepts, Bold new initiatives, Order of magnitude leaps forward, and Revolutionary breakthroughs. On the other hand, the Services' role and philosophy can be broadly characterized as: Need driven, Near term urgencies, Identified missions, Careful (smaller) steps and minimum risk, System life cycle cost effectives and Orderly phasing of evolutionary technology advancements. These fundamental differences make it understandable that barriers arise to inhibit timely smooth transfer of technology from DARPA to the Services.

This book was released on 2020-01-09 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The authors have done a masterful job of charting the important story of DARPA, one of the key catalysts of technological innovation in US recent history. By plotting the development, achievements and structure of the leading world agency of this kind, this book stimulates new thinking in the field of technological innovation with bearing on how to respond to climate change, pandemics, cyber security and other global problems of our time. The DARPA Model provides a useful guide for governmental agency and policy leaders, and for anybody interested in the role of governments in technological innovation. —Dr. Kent Hughes, Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars This volume contains a remarkable collection of extremely insightful articles on the world’s most successful advanced technology agency. Drafted by the leading US experts on DARPA, it provides a variety of perspectives that in turn benefit from being presented together in a comprehensive volume. It reviews DARPA’s unique role in the U.S. innovation system, as well as the challenges DARPA and its clones face today. As the American model is being considered for adoption by a number of countries worldwide, this book makes a welcome and timely contribution to the policy dialogue on the role played by governments in stimulating technological innovation. — Prof. Charles Wessner, Georgetown University The U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) has played a remarkable role in the creation new transformative technologies, revolutionizing defense with drones and precision-guided munitions, and transforming civilian life with portable GPS receivers, voice-recognition software, self-driving cars, unmanned aerial vehicles, and, most famously, the ARPANET and its successor, the Internet. Other parts of the U.S. Government and some foreign governments have tried to apply the ‘DARPA model’ to help develop valuable new technologies. But how and why has DARPA succeeded? Which features of its operation and environment contribute to this success? And what lessons does its experience offer for other U.S. agencies and other governments that want to develop and demonstrate their own ‘transformative technologies’? This book is a remarkable collection of leading academic research on DARPA from a wide range of perspectives, combining to chart an important story from the Agency’s founding in the wake of Sputnik, to the current attempts to adapt it to use by other federal agencies. Informative and insightful, this guide is essential reading for political and policy leaders, as well as researchers and students interested in understanding the success of this agency and the lessons it offers to others.

Book excerpt: Accelerating the transition of new technologies into systems and products will be crucial to the Department of Defenses development of a lighter, more flexible fighting force. Current long transition times-ten years or more is now typical-are attributed to the complexity of the process. To help meet these challenges, the Department of Defense asked the National Research Council to examine lessons learned from rapid technology applications by integrated design and manufacturing groups. This report presents the results of that study, which was based on a workshop held to explore these successful cases. Three key areas emerged: creating a culture for innovation and rapid technology transition; methodologies and approaches; and enabling tools and databases.

This book was released on 1996-09-01 with total page 131 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the wake of the defense drawdown and end of the Cold War, government laboratories are facing a changing mission. It is not only to maintain technology superiority, but also to promote commercialization of their technologies. Although Congress has tried to facilitate technology transfer from the government to the private sector, the transfer process has been inconsistent. The need for assistance has initiated the use of third parties or intermediaries in the technology transfer process. This thesis evaluates the utility of a third party in the technology transfer process. An examination of Wright Technology Network (WTN), a third party, is used to form a case study of its value added to Wright Laboratory (WL) in striving to meet WL's mission. Interviews with employees at WTN and WL are used to obtain the data for this case study. The key findings of this research suggest recommendations that can be applied to understand the utility of third parties. Some key findings found include: Third parties assist firms in targeting and defining a technology problem or interest and third parties facilitate the transfer process through their ties with industry. Opportunities for additional research in this area are also offered.

Specific areas which are studied are (1) a description of the technology transfer office, (2) the form of initial contact between technology transfer agents and users, (3) the technology transfer process employed, (4) technology transfer agent and ORTA demographics and (5) areas where the technology transfer process effectiveness can be increased. The conclusion identifies areas which the technology transfer agents and ORTA's perceive as needing improvement in the technology transfer process both within the laboratory and from the parent agency and also from the Federal government. The perceptions of the ORTA's in the implementation of the Stevenson-Wydler Technology Innovation Act are also discussed. Recommendations are proposed which address the technology transfer agents' and ORTAs' areas of concern. (Author).
