Description of the Book:

This study examined the technology transition process at the Aeronautical System Division between the Wright Research and Development Center (WRDC), and the Advanced Tactical Fighter Systems Program Office (ATF SPO) at Wright Patterson AFB OH. Four groups were surveyed, they included: WRDC, ATF SPO, ASD engineering, and defense contractors. Five Investigative Questions guided the research. (1) How has the operating command contributed in the development and transition of technology? (2) How well have the official and unofficial technology transition processes worked as perceived by laboratory, SPO, EN, and contractor personnel? (3) What organizations are considered important sources of information on new technology, and what is the frequency of contact with those organizations? (4) What influence is the contractor perceived to have on the success or failure of moving technology from WRDC to the ATF SPO? (5) Is the perceived risk of new technology by the SPO a significant barrier in the transition process?
