Logistics Survey

Abstract

This study had two objectives: (1) develop and evaluate web based tools for use in surveying Air Force logisticians to identify logistics research requirements; and (2) apply those tools to survey personnel working in the Air Force supply system to identify opportunities for research to improve the efficiency of the systems to support Air Force operations. Several web based tools were evaluated. Raeosoft's EZSurvey was selected. Questions were developed to elicit information on the current supply processes and identify opportunities for improvement. The questions were structured in a branching format so that respondents were presented with only those questions appropriate for their status (military, civilian), experience level, specialties, and duties. The survey proved to be an effective tool for identifying opportunities for research to develop better tools and develop improved processes to improve the capability of the Air Force to support operations.
