## What project 0824 buys

This project funds all basic costs of Office of Naval Research Management Headquarters Activity (MHA) non-labor in support of the entire Navy Science & Technology (S&T) program. Through this support, the S&T enterprise pursues the technological advances that enable the Fleet's ability to operate from a position of technological superiority.
