FTI will use tools that it has developed that have resulted in manpower requirement reductions and cost savings to other customers. FTI has been successful in developing technology through DoD Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR) contracts or employee initiative that increases quality and reduces cost for our customers. The Team brings over $20 million dollars of investment in decision support tools that have been adopted by the Air Force Material Command. These tools, and the experience developing them, show FTI’s ability to increase quality and decrease cost to our customers.
