In 1984, the US Department of Energy (DOE) embarked on a program to accelerate the technology-transfer process in its facilities. As the contractor for those facilities in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, Martin Marietta Energy Systems, Inc., (Energy Systems) created the Office of Technology Transfer (OTT), whose primary mission is to enhance and expedite technology transfer to US companies. Today, OTT has more ways than ever before to work with US industry. These include newly created Cooperative Research and Development Agreements (CRADAs), a flexible licensing program, and productive industry partnerships through the creation of R D consortia.
