Logistics management and administration are crucial to our national security strategy. As long as our Armed Forces continue to be committed around the globe, the Navy's ability to deploy and sustain them will remain a top priority. Unique logistic capabilities in the most efficient manner possible must continue. Limited resources dictate that the Services must adjust the size of their inventories to take advantage of improved business practices and information technology. Doing this reduces storage and handling costs while improving overall responsiveness and force readiness. As logistics migrate from a supply-based to a distribution-based system, it is vitally important that we capitalize on new and developing technologies to enhance responsiveness, visibility, and access to logistic resources. Thorough planning and comprehensive personnel management enables commanders to identify and allocate forces to achieve national security objectives.
