for Acquisition, Technology & Logistics on scientific and technical 
matters as they affect the perceived needs of the Department of 
Defense. At these meetings, the Defense Science Board Task Force will 
review the extent to which ManTech investments and funding plans for 
each Military Service and the Defense Logistics Agency support near-
term, warfighting operations, the industrial base, and long-range/
revolutionary technologies. Assess the adequacy of technical 
investments across manufacturing process disciplines and support for 
both Joint Warfighting Capabilities and revolutionary technologies. The 
Task Force will also appraise funding for manufacturing research and 
development, including mechanisms to support both Service/Agency 
requirements and cross-cutting initiatives.
