Enhancing Analysis, Modeling, and Decision Support (formerly Analytic & Decision Support)

Abstract

This Strategic Focus Area (SFA) funds developments in advanced analytical tools, modeling, and simulation of logistics and supply chain processes. These tools will improve DLA forecasting and procurement strategy decisions and lead to faster and more flexible responsiveness to emerging market and customer requirements. This SFA consists of two programs: The Medical Logistics Network (MLN) program supports the Medical Directorate’s mission to develop and implement the logistics and medical supply chain business practices that ensure the cost-effective and efficient distribution of medical materiel to the full range of Military Health System operations. The Strategic Distribution & Disposition (SDD) Program collaborates with DLA Distribution and Disposition Services to identify legacy capabilities that are inadequate for emerging worldwide distribution and disposition requirements. A key objective of the SDD Program is to anticipate, assess, and meet the current and future Warfighter requirements by leveraging R&D to infuse innovation into solutions. Long-term objectives include mitigating the DoD Supply Chain Management high risk issues identified by the Government Accountability Office (GAO), 2018 (Inventory Management, Material Distribution and Asset Visibility).
