Global Access

Abstract

DoD requires procedures/technologies targeted at optimizing throughput at the nodes as well as across the conduits of the deployment and distribution supply chains, from origin to point of use as well as return. Needed capabilities include inventory/cargo management, materiel handling innovations, improved physical node access, port throughput enhancements, innovative delivery methods (e.g., precision airlift, autonomous re-supply), and cargo/container security. This project addresses required mission support to combatant commanders and other customers of DoD’s distribution and transportation systems in the area of deployment/distribution velocity management, manned/unmanned systems to the point of effect, and increased global reach in austere/anti-access environments.
