In the ongoing efforts to meet the demands of the mission, it\u2019s important to innovate in the way we do business, finding the best tools, equipment, and processes to benefit the mechanics and our customers. Yet sometimes \u2013 this task can be a bit daunting, with research, testing, and working to meet the requirements of safety, security, and IT. However, one of NNSY\u2019s newest branches of innovative thinking has stepped up to the plate, taking on the challenge for all of America\u2019s Shipyard and beyond.<\/p>\n<p>Enter: the Code 100TO.31 New Technologies Branch, a newly established branch of the Innovation and Technology Insertion Division within the Command Transformation Office. Their diverse team of engineers and analysts have come together to find technological solutions for current and future problems for NNSY.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are building something sustainable, providing an avenue for our workforce to be able to bring in the tools they need to get their job done as efficiently as possible,\u201d said Code 100TO.31 New Technologies Branch Head Amber Turk. \u201cWe talk with our customers and understand their needs, research the best solutions for what their problems are, and help them fill that need. We can bring in those technologies for demonstrations so our workforce can see it in action. And once they determine if they want to acquire those technologies, we also help purchase and build their program for them to take the tool and use it in their processes. Our objective is to make sure whatever solutions are out there that we as a shipyard can gain \u2013 we assist in bringing it to the deckplate where it\u2019s needed, meeting all the requirements and ready for action.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In addition to researching and hosting demonstrations of new technologies, working with the shops to address areas&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dvidshub.net\/news\/566685\/eye-innovation-norfolk-naval-shipyards-new-technologies-branch-aims-bring-new-and-sustainable-solutions-our-workforce\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DVIDS &#8211; News &#8211; Eye on Innovation: Norfolk Naval Shipyard\u2019s New Technologies Branch Aims to&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":262144,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/d1ldvf68ux039x.cloudfront.net\/thumbs\/photos\/2606\/9720562\/1000w_q95.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[62,57],"class_list":["post-262142","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-technology","tag-innovation","tag-security"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/262142"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=262142"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/262142\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":262146,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/262142\/revisions\/262146"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/262144"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=262142"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=262142"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=262142"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
