Department of Defense Logistics Roadmap 2008. Volume 1
Abstract
The 2008 DoD Logistics Roadmap is a living document that begins building a detailed depiction, over time, of the Department's existing, planned, and desired logistics capabilities across the spectrum of doctrine, organization, training, material, leadership and education, personnel, and facilities. It establishes a DoD-wide framework for improving logistics capabilities and business processes, and it provides a basis for current and future capabilities assessment: (1) The Roadmap initiates the process of defining the Department's Logistics Capability Portfolio in terms of initiatives and programs. It documents specific actions underway to achieve logistics goals and supporting objectives, and it examines those actions from the perspective of the logistics capability area experts who must advise the Department's senior leaders on capability and capacity issues; (2) It begins an evolutionary process of linking logistics initiative and program performance assessment to identifiable and measurable strategic outcomes. Following publication of the Roadmap, the DoD logistics community will begin a process of assessing progress toward achieving DoD logistics goals and objectives and toward meeting logistics capability and capacity needs. The Roadmap will be part of an ongoing process of assessment and feedback linked to the Quadrennial Defense Review and the Planning, Programming, Budgeting, and Execution cycles. It will facilitate teamwork and informed senior leader decision making in a constrained resource environment. The DoD Logistics Roadmap is a tool for the DoD logistics community to use in guiding, measuring, and tracking progress of the ongoing transformation of the Department's logistics capabilities. Future updates will furnish logistics decision makers with a concise update about the state of DoD logistics. Most important, updates will identify credible options and resource requirements for achieving high-priority logistics capabilities to support the warfighter
