The NDIA Policy team monitors, advocates for, and educates government stakeholders on policy matters of importance to the defense industrial base. Our mission is to ensure the continued existence of a viable, competitive national technology and industrial base, strengthen the government-industry partnership through dialogue, and provide interaction between the legislative, executive, and judicial branches. The Policy team also represents NDIA in several inter-association groups representing the defense industry and the government contracting community. Policy staff regularly meet with key policy stakeholders, and manage Congressional interactions with NDIA Chapters and Divisions.
