The Defense Industry Consultative Committee (DICC) was formed in 1993 by the National Defense Industrial Association (NDIA) and the Korean Defense Industry Association (KDIA).  The DICC mission is to provide a forum for developing and sustaining a US-ROK Industry dialogue on defense technological and industrial cooperation, and to offer appropriate industry recommendations to the Defense Technological and Industrial Cooperation Committee (DTICC) and the Security Consultative Committee (SCC) which are established by memorandum of understanding (MOU) between ROK and the US.  Issues to be addressed by the DICC include but are not be limited to:


Cooperative research and development
Co-production
Date Exchange Agreements
Expansion of reciprocal procurements
Industrial teaming for cooperative programs
Joint approach to third country markets
Other cooperative projects
Technology transfer
Third country sales and royalties
Trade offers 

DICC membership is drawn from KDIA and NDIA member companies active in the international market place.  The DICC meets once a year, alternating between Washington, DC and Seoul, ROK.
