    About the Center:

    The Rapid Prototyping Research Center (RPRC) focuses on providing its Department of Defense (DoD) sponsors a unique perspective on rapid prototyping that aligns with Section 804 in the FY17 National Defense Authorization Act. Specifically, rather than developing a new system to satisfy intractable problems on the battlefield, the RPRC integrates new technology into existing infrastructure. This unique approach reduces acquisition costs since the sustainment tail is in place. It also reduces the time to field intractable solutions to the battlefield from 10-14 years down to 1-3 years and provides assurance that the prototype involved is integrated with the latest technology, not dated technology due to lengthy acquisition delivery timelines.

    • Ensure that the team members, including GMU employees, students, and contractors, deliver high-quality network solutions that meet the needs of our clients and provide regular status updates to stakeholders.
    • Continuously evaluate and improve RPRC's processes and tools and provide leadership in adopting new network technologies and methodologies.
