Join the “who’s who” of logistics at the leading event for senior-level defense logistics professionals!

IDGA’s Military Logistics Summit brings together the thought leaders and decision-makers in logistics operations to discuss the latest implementation strategies and program initiatives to ensure the flexibility and preparedness of our military’s future.

This year’s program will cut right to the heart of the issues: What does it take to achieve 360 degree readiness? How do you best modernize and transform logistics systems, reset equipment and supplies, maximize resource efficiency, and how, truly, do you fix things faster?

Discussions will focus on the timeliest topics and concerns such as:

• Resetting the Force
• Creating Seamless, Agile Logistics Systems
• Joint Logistics: Overcoming Challenges to Interoperability
• The Keys to PBL Success Stories – Takeaways to Use Now
• Logistics Transformation Lessons for the Military from the Commercial World
• Achieving Readiness for an Over-Taxed Military
• And much more!

IDGA’s Military Logistics Summit is a “no nonsense zone” where you will learn not just the latest plans for the future, but how to make logistics work now! No other logistics event provides the same attention to content and rich dialogue and to real world case studies.

Mark your calendars and stay tuned for more details!
