The goal of the HPC-ISP-PILOTS project is to demonstrate that investment in high-performance computing within the Department of Defense supply chain can provide an "enabling function" and close the critical capability gap that is eroding the strength and security of the DoD supplier base specifically, and the competitive leadership of U.S. industry more broadly.

Four DoD supply chain HPC pilots and ten additional industry case studies are being conducted to build a body of evidence that does not exist about the business and competitive value of modeling and simulation with HPC in order to drive the usage of this innovation-accelerating technology through the DoD.

HPC-ISP-PILOTS is part of the National Innovation Collaboration Ecosystem (NICE) jointly led by the Council on Competitiveness and USC Information Sciences Institute.
