DoDTechipedia is a wiki developed by the United States Department of Defense (DoD), to facilitate increased communication and collaboration among DoD scientists, engineers, program managers, acquisition professionals, and operational warfighters. DoDTechipedia is a living knowledge base that reduces duplication of effort, encourages collaboration among program areas, and connects capability providers with technology developers.[1][2] DoDTechipedia runs on Confluence wiki engine, unlike a number of MediaWiki-based government wikis like Diplopedia and Bureaupedia.
Launched on October 1, 2008, DoDTechipedia was developed to increase communication and collaboration among DoD scientists, engineers, and acquisition professionals, as well as operational warfighters, and ultimately academic and private sector partners.[3] The goal is to break through existing stovepiped communication and coordination processes and allow researchers to collaborate directly with other researchers in related areas and with technology users across the DoD. Using Web 2.0 technologies, specifically wiki and blogging tools, DoDTechipedia enables users to see and discuss the innovative technologies being developed throughout the DoD and also emerging technologies from the academic and private sectors. Greater collaboration will result in more rapid technology development and the discovery of innovative solutions to meet critical capability needs.
Several DoD organizations are working together to develop, maintain and govern DoDTechipedia, including: Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology and Logistics (AT&L), Director of Defense Research and Engineering (DDR&E), Networks and Information Integration and Department of Defense Chief Information Officer (NII/DoD CIO), and Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC).
