The Cornerstone Consortium, which is comprised of 18 industrial base sectors, provides a collaborative environment for the identification and resolution of capability gaps across the Department of Defense (DoD) enterprise, both within and across sectors. Cornerstone’s tailored agreements provide an effective mechanism for executing industrial base prototype requirements by streamlining the research, development, prototyping, demonstration, and qualification process.
Cornerstone Other Transaction Agreement (COTA) was created in February 2018 as a result of a collaborative environment between the Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Industrial Policy (DASD INDPOL), the Industrial Base Analysis and Sustainment (IBAS) Program Manager at Combat Capabilities Development Command Chemical Biological Center (DEVCOM CBC) and Army Contracting Command Rock Island (ACC-RI). The Cornerstone scope was initially set up to support the Executive Order 13806: Assessing and Strengthening the Manufacturing and Defense Industrial Base and Supply Chain Resiliency of the United States (2017).
Cornerstone is a prototype Other Transaction Agreement (OTA) contract vehicle and consortium supporting a broad spectrum of Department of Defense (DoD) technology areas to strengthen the force posture of the Defense Industrial Base (DIB). Cornerstone is operated by DEVCOM CBC and ACC in Rock Island, Illinois, under the oversight of the IBAS Program Manager. To date, Cornerstone is the only Government-managed OTA Consortium, thus providing a unique capability within DoD. Cornerstone supports effective execution of funding for collaborations between DoD Programs of Record and the DIB. Additionally, Cornerstone provides the DoD an opportunity to engage with a wide range of non-traditional, traditional, and emerging industries and entities to streamline access to the DIB for mission critical capabilities.
The overarching Cornerstone OTA and all initiatives under Cornerstone are prototype OTAs in accordance with 10 United States Code (U.S.C.) § 2371b. Cornerstone’s scope matches the IBAS Program authority areas as defined in 10 U.S.C. § 2508: monitoring and assessment of the industrial base; addressing critical issues in the industrial base related to urgent operational needs; supporting efforts to expand the industrial base; and, addressing supply chain vulnerabilities. Other supporting authorities and provisions include National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) 2017, Title XIII, Subtitle G, Section 881 - Greater Integration of the National Technology and Industrial Base (NTIB).
Cornerstone’s intent is to provide a collaborative environment for the identification and resolution of capability gaps across the DoD enterprise, both within and across sectors. Cornerstone’s tailored agreements provide an effective mechanism for executing industrial base prototype requirements by streamlining the research, development, prototyping, demonstration, and qualification process.
Cornerstone establishes a public-private agreement across a broad range of industrial base sectors and requirements. Cornerstone is interested in a combination of domestic private companies (small to large businesses and private capital), academic institutions, and non-profit organizations interested in entering into an Other Transaction Agreement (OTA), pursuant to 10 United States Code (U.S.C.) § 2371b.
Cornerstone is established under 10 U.S.C. § 2508 authority for:
Monitoring and assessment of the industrial base;
Addressing critical issues in the industrial base related to urgent operational needs;
Supporting efforts to expand the industrial base; and,
Addressing supply chain vulnerabilities.
