U.S.-Coalition Forces and Host Nations: DOTmLPF-P for Contingency Procurements. Part 2. Conclusion.

摘要

My previous article in the May June 2014 issue of Defense AT&L introduced the application of the DOTmLPF-P construct for implementing a host- nation (HN)-first contingency procurement strategy. That article covered Policy, Doctrine, Organization and Training. This concluding article focuses on the remaining areas of materiel, Leadership and Education, Personnel, and Facilities. The recommendations herein are by no means exhaustive but are intended to provide some major areas to consider when executing a HN-first procurement policy such as we attempted to carry out in Afghanistan under Operation Enduring Freedom.
