Authors: Julie Knight, Phil Reese
The Maryland Defense Network is a database of defense reliance and supply chain networks of defense contractors and is presented in the form of an interactive mapping tool. MDN is invaluable to companies within the supply chain as it assists in identifying potential subcontractors, forming teaming relationships and providing additional insight into the economic health of their regions. This presentation will explore the technologies and lessons learned during the development of the tool.
