Committees play a crucial role within the NDIA Rocky Mountain Chapter. These groups are responsible for organizing and executing various events and initiatives, from fundraising to networking. By joining a committee, members have the opportunity to collaborate with others who share similar interests and goals. Committees also provide leadership opportunities for members, allowing them to gain valuable experience and build relationships within the industry. Additionally, committees serve as a valuable resource for fostering innovation and addressing industry challenges.

The NDIA Rocky Mountain Chapter is committed to supporting and empowering its committees to make a meaningful impact on the community and the defense industry. Members are encouraged to get involved and take advantage of the many benefits of participating in committees.
