Description of the Book:
This paper analyzes the guidance in the current Focused Logistics Campaign Plan and assesses the effectiveness of Department of Defense (DoD) and service policies on materiel consolidation and air clearance authority. The paper argues that developing common DoD and services policies for materiel consolidation and air clearance will result in a more effective joint distribution system. After Operation Desert Storm the U.S. Army took the lead in reviewing its supply chain process in order to implement improvements through more effective practices and policies. This process improvement program was called Velocity Management (VM). VM has enabled the Army to significantly reduce its peacetime CWT for high-priority materiel. Customer wait time segments span the entire strategic and theater distribution system. Policy and practices implemented at the strategic level significantly impact the effectiveness of the theater distribution system and defense transportation system. Using RAND studies and current DoD policy this SRP analyzes current joint guidance Army Velocity Management materiel consolidation guidance for the Army and Marine Corps in Operation Iraqi Freedom and a comparison of our services air clearance policies.
This analysis demonstrates the need for the DoD to update and standardize policy for materiel consolidation and air clearance
