The Material Data Management Consortium (MDMC)

Managing critical data in aerospace, defense, and energy

MDMC logoThe Material Data Management Consortium (MDMC) is a unqiue collaborative project focused on developing and applying software to manage mission-critical materials data in the aerospace, defense, and energy sectors.

The MDMC was founded in 2002 by materials-oriented corporations and government agencies. Its objective is to identify best practice materials data management and to create and implement the software tools to support this approach.

The accurate and efficient use of materials data is critical to many engineering enterprises. This is particularly true in aerospace, defense, and energy, where engineers need to make the best use of materials such as alloys, composites, and ceramics, often under extreme conditions. In these highly-regulated and quality-conscious industries, it is also vital that data is secure and controlled, to ensure that it is up-to-date and accessible only to approved users, and that data is fully traceable, so that any design decision can be quickly and reliably reviewed.

The MDMC has helped to develop a materials data management solution that meets stringent requirements for accuracy, efficiency, security, control, and traceability.
