How is the DoD Logistics Transformation Going?

Rick Eden

Published 2001

This Draft Report (Unrestricted) documents a memo that I wrote to Michael Rich in response to the question stated in the title: How is the DoD logistics transformation going? His question was motivated by the advent of a new administration in Washington that had stated its intent to make reform of the military an early top priority. My purpose was to formulate an answer that was informed by the logistics research conducted in RAND's three FFRDCs. As the footnotes attest, I drew primarilyl on published studies of the past few years, but I have also cited some unpublished research.

This publication is part of the RAND draft series. The unrestricted draft was a product of RAND from 1993 to 2003 that represented preliminary or prepublication versions of other, more formal RAND products for distribution to appropriate external audiences, similar to an academic discussion paper. Although unrestricted drafts have been approved for circulation, they were not usually formally edited or peer reviewed.

This research in the public interest was supported by RAND using discretionary funds made possible by the generosity of RAND's donors, the fees earned on client-funded research, or independent research and development (IR&D) funds provided by the Department of Defense.
