Department of Defense Logistics Transformation Strategy: Achieving Knowledge-Enabled Logistics

摘要

This document presents the Department of Defense (DoD) strategy to reconcile advanced logistics concepts in support of distributed adaptive operations and DoD transformation, as required by the FY06 Strategic Planning Guidance. The strategy was prepared for the Under Secretary of Defense (Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics) by the Logistics Transformation Roadmap Steering Group, under the direction of the Joint Logistics Board. The strategy includes a comprehensive process to reconcile Focused Logistics, Force- centric Logistics Enterprise, and Sense and Respond Logistics. The strategy also encompasses other transformational operations, intelligence, and logistics concepts to provide a more comprehensive approach to achieve Joint Focused Logistics capabilities. An aggressive experimentation campaign and rapidly developed operational prototypes are included to test, refine, validate, integrate, and socialize transformational logistics technology and concepts. These efforts will enable DoD to better manage logistics developments and to integrate and coordinate with developing concepts for military operations. This strategy supports the detailed Focused Logistics Roadmap to be published in 2005, which will include specific programs, milestones, and resources to achieve Focused Logistics capabilities.
