researches, demonstrates, and supports the fielding of viable,
mission-driven solutions that reduce total ownership costs and
fulfill environmental, safety, occupational health, and sustainability
requirements. The NDCEE proactively identifies and focuses on
current and emerging issues, providing the Department of Defense
(DoD) with opportunities to develop Service-unique or joint initiatives to
better focus research, development, testing and evaluation execution,
and maximize the deployment of viable technologies to multiple users.
Overall, the NDCEE supports DoD installations, ranges, weapon
systems, and the warfighter in achieving performance advantages,
enhanced efficiency and cost effectiveness, improved personnel well
being, and compliance with regulations.”
