Technology Transition is the use of technology in military systems to create effective weapons and support systems-in the quantity and quality needed by the warfighter.* Technology Transitions can occur during the development of systems, or even after a system has been in the field. Technology Transitions can occur between government organizations, such as when a government laboratory transitions a technology to a government research and development organization. Also, industry can transition technology to government, and vice versa. *Taken from Manager’s Guide to Technology Transition in an Evolutionary Acquisition Environment, January 31, 2003.
