Description

The Department of Defense (DOD) operates a complex, multibillion-dollar distribution system for delivering supplies and equipment to U.S. forces globally. DODäó»s goal in operating this global distribution pipeline is to deliver the right item to the right place at the right time, at the right cost. GAO has reported on weaknesses in DODäó»s distribution performance and has identified management of DODäó»s entire supply chain as a high-risk area. This review assesses the extent to which DOD (1) has established metrics for its distribution performance; (2) is able to accurately measure its performance against distribution standards; and (3) has taken actions to identify causes and develop solutions for any gaps in distribution. Tables and figure. This is a print on demand report.
