Technology management at ASELSAN, the technology leader of the Turkish Defense Industry and a mission company, is carried out in coordination with ASELSAN strategy management processes.

The technologies to be focused on in line with the targets set in the ASELSAN Strategic Plan are reflected in the ASELSAN Integrated Roadmap and shaped in line with technology analysis and foresight studies. In this direction, ASELSAN conducts research on emerging technology areas that can be considered as breakthroughs and technology trends that will gain importance in the future, which are analyzed by the world's leading organizations.

These studies aim to provide a broad perspective on future technologies by examining technologies from the perspective of multiple disciplines, and the relationship of these technologies with ASELSAN technologies is examined and analyzed.

ASELSAN Integrated Roadmap is a framework roadmap that includes Product, Technology, Nationalization, Investment, Human Resources and Training components and the interaction within these components within the scope of all fields of activity carried out within the Sector Presidencies. The management, reporting and valuation of the multifaceted data in the Integrated Roadmap are systematically integrated with the Enterprise Resource Planning system.

The technologies included in the ASELSAN Integrated Roadmap were categorized under the main and sub-technology headings in accordance with the Technology Taxonomy of the Presidency of Defense Industries and the ASELSAN Technology Taxonomy was created. Currently, there are more than 30 main technologies and approximately 300 sub-technologies whose technological development is planned under main technologies.

Technology management activities, self-funded projects and technological investments carried out by the Sector Presidencies are carried out in the light of this plan. ASELSAN allocates approximately 8% of its turnover to planned self-funded R&D projects.

ASELSAN's technological development is a performance indicator in the target cards and is monitored through Technology Readiness Level measurements in accordance with the definitions of Technology Readiness Levels used worldwide.
