CubicLabs Receives Defense Manufacturing Excellence Award

Collaborative Project will save Department of Defense $2.5 Million Annually

CubicLabs is pleased to announce that one of the NCMS Commercial Technologies for Maintenance Activities (CTMA) collaborative project teams has received a 2004 Defense Manufacturing Excellence Award. The award presented by the National Center for Advanced Technologies (NCAT) at the Defense Manufacturing Conference recognizes outstanding contributions to manufacturing science.

The Light Armored Vehicle Life Cycle Logistics Support Tool Team deployed sensors that allow maintenance personnel to remotely monitor armored vehicles. Maintenance can then be performed depending on need rather than using a calendar-based schedule. Deployment of this “condition based maintenance” system in its light armored vehicles (LAV) will save the Department of Defense (DoD) over $2.5 million annually.

“This award recognizes the value that our CTMA program creates from the collaboration between private industry and the DoD,” said NCMS Vice President Chuck Ryan. “The DoD gets access to cutting edge technology and our members gain visibility into the needs of our military.”

NCMS members Portal Dynamics, CubicLabs, and Delphi Corporation were the commercial participants on this project. Other participants included LAV/TACOM, USMC bases at Albany and Barstow, the Anniston US Army Depot, and the Rochester Institute of Technology.
