Endless Forge (EF) is Manufacturing as a Service (MaaS), an adaptive, surge-adaptive, resilient, and scalable manufacturing capability to enable US industrial base dominance. EF represents a new manufacturing paradigm, shifting away from vertically integrated and sequential value chains to adaptive and fast-acting regionalized production networks. If successful, EF will offer the DAF the ability to scale any weapon system at speed through a platform-agnostic approach that can respond to battlefield performance.
