Capability Program Executive Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear Defense
(CPE CBRND)

Mission

Provide integrated layered chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear defense capabilities to the Joint Force across Combined Joint All-Domain Operations.

• Manage investments in chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear defense equipment and medical countermeasures.
• Lead, manage, and direct the acquisition, fielding, and sustainment of CBRN sensors, protective equipment, specialized equipment, integration and information management systems, and defense-enabling biotechnologies.

Technology Transfer Notes

CPE CBRND cooperates with non-federal partners to manage scientific direction, build partnerships, and de-risk programs. For instance, through relationships with the DoW Chemical and Biological Defense Program, CPE CBRND provides resources to test candidates against military agents of interest and against military specifications. CPE CBRND provides access to expertise or specialized materials that cannot be found elsewhere.
