Aerospace and Defense Strategic Plan
Oklahoma boasts a robust legacy in space, aviation and defense. For over 70 years, the state has played host to what are now some of the largest military and commercial aircraft maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) centers in the world. The manufacturing labor base to support these operations has historically accounted for most of Oklahoma’s growth in the aerospace and defense (A&D) industries.
The Oklahoma Department of Commerce has partnered with Sustainment Technologies to provide Oklahoma aerospace and defense companies a technology-driven competitive advantage. This internet-based software platform efficiently connects manufacturers, service providers, the Department of Defense and other relevant organizations to streamline vendor discovery and improve supply chain utilization within Oklahoma. The application allows Oklahoma companies to leverage technology and grow their business by providing a single platform to uniquely market themselves, find new partners and suppliers, identify new business opportunities and diversify their streams of revenue.
