Abstract

The Defense Business Board (hereafter referred to as the Board ) provides recommendations to the Department of Defense s (DoD) senior management on improving DoD s management policies and practices to maximize operational effectiveness and efficiency. In May 2010, the Chairman of the Board created the Task Group on Global Logistics Management to recommend ways to improve the management and governance of the Department s FY2010 $210 billion global logistics enterprise. The Task Group was asked to identify and analyze best business practices for enterprise-wide logistics management. The group specifically focused on leadership and organizational constructs that could streamline the end-to-end logistics system enhancing its effectiveness, as well as reducing its costs. A copy of the Terms of Reference outlining the scope and deliverables for the Task Group can be found.
