Defense Logistics

The 13th annual Defense Logistics Conference is taking place from December 3-5 in Alexandria, VA. This year’s conference theme is Facing the New Certainties: Budget Reductions & Affordable Logistics.

In a constrained budget environment, there are limited opportunities and venues for the Defense Community to come together and strategize on logistics solutions. We’re continuously offering a relevant and timely event to address the current challenges.

Some of main conference themes for this year will include:

Budget Impact on the Future of Defense Logistics
Equipping & Sustaining the Force in a Transitioning Budget Environment
Achieving Higher Efficiencies & Lower Costs
Maintenance, Sustainment and Obsolescence
Innovations in Supply Chain Technology
Readiness Analysis & Strategy
