IBEX Industry Capability and Capacity Determination Support for Mortuary Affairs Report on Washington State

Industrial Base Extension (IBex) Program Capability and Capacity Determination Support

for Mortuary Affairs Report on Washington State. IBex was developed to support DOD

operations in remote or hostile environments where little or no commercial capability

information is known or exists. Bolstering DLA’s ability to rapidly respond to shifting

worldwide events, IBex’s strategic partnerships with industry experts allows government

planners to leverage the expertise of the commercial sector, and to gain access to those

commercial capabilities if required. Moreover, through IBex’s partnerships with industry

and its Market Research reports, the program provides industrial base awareness over assets

that can be utilized during a contingency or national emergency. This report will provide in-depth information on the current practices of implant recycling practices within the US mortuary industry, identifying best practices, barriers to adoption,

and opportunities for improvement to inform policy recommendations and promote

sustainable waste management in Washington state.
