Optics Manufacturing Workforce Needs Questionnaire

The American Center for Optics Manufacturing — AmeriCOM — has been tasked by the Department of Defense with identifying the defense precision optics industrial base and the needs companies have for Optics Technicians. Thank you for completing this brief questionnaire. It is an important first step in gathering data about our industry.

* Indicates required answer



Do you have a shop floor?*

Does your company manufacture lenses or sell products/solutions requiring the work of technicians trained on lens fabrication?*
Does your company manufacture lenses or sell products/solutions requiring the work of technicians who are trained in optical systems assembly and integration?*
Does your company manufacture lenses or sell products/solutions requiring the work of technicians who have knowledge of optical systems testing?*

Are you currently in need of more optics technicians?*

Do you expect to need more optics technicians in the future?*

Is your company either ITAR-registered and/or a supplier to a prime contractor?*

The second step in our data-gathering process utilizes a comprehensive survey which will allow us to better understand our nation’s defense manufacturing capabilities and our ability to recruit and train our future workforce. This survey will take about 30 minutes to complete and will require input from members of your manufacturing and human resources teams.
Please provide the name and contact information of the person at your company who could best facilitate this step.
