Warfighter Protection and Acute Care
The WPAC Project Management Office (PMO) protects and sustains the Warfighter from initial service entry, during far-forward deployments, at the point of injury and beyond by developing, delivering, and fielding U.S. FDA-approved preventions, diagnostics, and treatments for infectious diseases and combat wound infections; blood products and blood components; and drugs for battlefield pain management.
These critical capabilities ensure readiness; mitigate and treat infections and illness; reduce morbidity and mortality: and improve recovery.
We focus on enabling the Warfighter's return to the fight and to their families and reducing the logistical burden of carrying and using critical medical materiel on the battlefield.
The WPAC PMO accomplishes its mission by leveraging partnerships with industry, academia, and other governmental agencies to develop medical materiel solutions to satisfy critical requirements generated by the Service Capability Directorates and the user community.
Current WPAC PMO efforts focus on the development of vaccines, drugs, diagnostics, and therapeutics for the prevention and treatment of infectious diseases, hemorrhage control and resuscitation solutions for Warfighters and for Military working dogs, as well as drugs for battlefield pain management.
WPAC Mission: Develop, deliver and field U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved preventions, diagnostics, and treatments for infectious diseases and combat wound infections; blood products and blood components; and drugs for battlefield pain management to protect and sustain the Warfighter during far-forward deployments.
WPAC Vision: The Warfighter Protection and Acute Care (WPAC) Project Management Office (PMO) serves the medical needs of our U.S. Warfighters. We will advance their health and readiness through continually improving our acquisition strategies and by implementing innovative solutions to accelerate the development and fielding of medical products.
