The Innovation Capability and Modernization (ICAM) office manages and executes the Department’s Industrial Base Analysis and Sustainment (IBAS) program element, which aims to improve the readiness and competitiveness of the U.S. industrial base by establishing high priority domestic capabilities for new supply chains needed for national security and mitigating exposure to global supply chain risks.
The IBAS Program invests heavily in six priority industrial capability development areas. These are: Submarine and Shipbuilding Workforce, Kinetic Weapons, Microelectronics, Critical Chemicals, Castings and Forgings, and Energy Storage and Batteries. Each of these areas was identified in Executive Order 14017, America’s Supply Chains, as a center of gravity for America’s economic and national security.
