he time is nearing for us to once again celebrate National Transportation Week (NTW). In May 1957, Congress requested by joint resolution to recognize “the importance of our Nation’s transportation infrastructure, and of the men and women who build, maintain, and utilize it.” In response, the President designated the third Friday in May of each year as “National Defense Transportation Day” and (amended in 1962). the week during which that Friday falls as “National Transportation Week.” This year National Defense Transportation Day Falls on May 16, and that week, May 11-17 is National Transportation Week. I recommend that this year you take a moment to read the President’s proclamation regarding NTW, as it will provide insights into the President’s thoughts on the value of transportation and the direction of the administration. This proclamation will be out in the beginning of May and will be included under the Government News section in the NDTAGram, so keep an eye out for it! As in years past, NDTA kicked off its planning for NTW by holding a theme contest. To our surprise we received more suggestions (and really great suggestions) than ever before! It was a very hard decision, but the theme that has been chosen is Transportation – Moving the World into Tomorrow. This theme, submitted by David Powers of Dayton, OH, emphasizes how advances in transportation are bringing the future to our doors. Each year, NDTA selects a theme to provide inspiration to its chapters for their NTW planning, as well as to inspire the future logisticians who take part in NDTA’s annual student poster contest. The contest is open to students through grade 5 and submissions are due to NDTA headquarters by May 2. If you have a little loggie who may want to enter the contest, please look for the official rules on NDTA’s website.
Of course NDTA’s Chapters and their events play the biggest role in celebrating NTW and this year is no exception! Mark your calendar and RSVP now for your local chapter’s events occurring around that week: Aloha Chapter 2nd Annual Scholarship/ Charity Golf Tournament May 22 • Aiea, HI Arizona Frontier Chapter 19th Annual Charity and Scholarship Golf Tournament May 17 • Vail, AZ Dallas-Ft.

In addition, if you have not already done so, register now for the NDTA Defense Travel & Government Transportation (DTGT) Meeting being held May 21-22 in Alexandria, VA. Information for this important meeting can be found on www.ndtahq.com/DTGT14.htm. Regardless of where you celebrate National Transportation Week I encourage everyone to spread the word about the significontinued on page 128
EDITORIAL Winter 2014: More Than We Bargained For Dr. Kent N. Gourdin, Editor, DTJ Director, Global Logistics and Transportation Program College of Charleston
T
he last week of January and the second week in February presented the Eastern United States with some of the worse winter weather seen in decades. Normally, those of us in South Carolina, and indeed much of the South, sit smugly by and watch it happen to someone else. Unfortunately, this year we were not so lucky. The implosion of the Atlanta area highway network was well chronicled in the media, but we in Charleston suffered a similar, if less traumatic, shutdown of our roads and bridges as well. The Ravenel Bridge, which opened in 2005, carries US 17 across the Cooper River, connecting the large suburb of Mount Pleasant on the north with Charleston on
the south. With the first “vortex” in January, the bridge was shut down because of ice on the roadway. Unfortunately, the alternate route, I-526, which is itself a long way around, was also closed because of ice on its bridges. Absent those two arteries, there was virtually no way between the two cities that did not involve North Carolina. Because the surface streets and highways were ice-free, people immediately starting complaining about the bridges being closed. The Ravenel reopened a bit more than a day later, only to close again almost immediately because large chunks of thawing ice began falling from the cables onto the road deck below. Several windshields were shattered and vehicles damaged. As a
result, the cry then went up that the bridge was opened too early. Two weeks later, when vortex number two came through, the Ravenel was closed for almost 40 hours. Fortunately, I-526 remained clear and open, but, as you can imagine, the traffic was unbelievable and many folks (including yours truly) opted to stay home. Pity the poor SCDOT folks who were criticized for both closing the bridge and opening it! Sadly, I think this unrealistic view is typical of infrastructure users, i.e. us. We want mobility without interference or cost. The bridges were closed because they were deemed unsafe, just as they have been in continued on page 128

his is our Almanac issue of the Defense Transportation Journal (DTJ). It is the issue where we highlight NDTA as the tie that binds government and industry together in the pursuit of common interest. The Almanac is a directory of the key Government organizations involved in logistics, transportation, and security. It also includes information pertaining to our corporate members, NDTA Chapters, Regions, and Board of Directors. The first section contains the names, contact information, and descriptions of the major military and government organizations with which our members do business. The next section is the corporate member honor roll. It is a complete listing of our corporate members, key individuals within the company, and a short description of their business. When you are seeking a particular type service, always start with this section. Member companies offer a wide range of transportation, logistics, distribution, travel, and related services and are eager to share knowledge with fellow members. This is also a good resource when seeking team members in response to a government or industry request for proposal. The last section provides a directory of the NDTA Board of Directors, National Officers, the NDTA Regional Organization, and NDTA profile. I find this section especially useful when seeking a point of contact in a specific geographical area or various types of NDTA metrics. Familiarize yourself with the contents of this issue and retain it as a quick reference document—personally, I keep it on my desk and use it frequently. Several of my columns over the last three years have discussed the topic of change. The intent was to keep you informed of pending changes and help you prepare for them. Changes that have occurred in the DOD market seem to be more
significant than planned and are having a greater impact on businesses. Perhaps the most visible impact is on the strategic long-range air and ocean carriers. The drop in DOD business has been so quick and dramatic that companies are urgently seeking replacement cargo and working to resize their fleets. The decrease in business opportunity combined with changes in contract strategy—more firm fixed price contracts, more Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contracts with increased competition for task orders, and greater use of Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) contracts—places increased strain on the DOD/industry relationship. These actions are starting to impact the readiness and capability of the commercial fleets. DOD should quickly determine the size and capability/capacity of the strategic fleets needed to support the National Military Strategy and implement programs to retain the capability necessary to meet identified requirements. Change also continues at your association, as we move away from holding our annual Forums at neutral locations and focus on those cities that are most convenient and efficient for our military/government attendees. For NDTA, that translates to St. Louis, MO and the Washington, DC area. We started the transition last year by holding the NDTAUSTRANSCOM Fall Meeting in St. Louis. We will be holding our second cosponsored NDTA-USTRANSCOM Fall Meeting in St. Louis 28-30 October 2014. We are also holding our second Defense Travel and Government Transportation (DTGT) meeting in the Washington, DC area at the Hilton Alexandria Mark Center Hotel in Alexandria, VA, 21-22 May 2014. The intent is to provide more balance in scheduling the major events—one in the spring and one in the fall. For our
NDTA Defense Travel and Government Transportation Meeting May 21-22 • Alexandria, VA NDTA-USTRANSCOM Fall Meeting October 28-30 • St. Louis, MO
DTGT event, we will be strengthening our relationships with the DTMO, DOT, DLA, FEMA, and other government agencies to provide greater breadth for our corporate members. Mark your calendars and plan to participate in these two 2014 Meetings. As mentioned in my February column, we will continue with our modal committee meetings and executive working group meetings throughout the year as a means for our members to lend their voices to the discussions on issues and actions impacting their businesses. Visit our website www.ndtahq.com and follow us on our social media for the most current information on events, as well as logistics and transportation news. To all our industry members, government organizations, board of directors, regional presidents, chapters, and individual members—thank you for the work you do every day in support of our economy and National Security.

Acting Assistant Secretary of Defense (Logistics & Material Readiness)
he mission of the Office of the Secretary of Defense Logistics and Materiel Readiness is to provide globally responsive, operationally precise and cost-effective joint logistics support for the projection and sustainment of America’s warfighters. One of the top priorities of the Under Secretary of Defense (Acquisition, Technology, & Logistics), is supporting forces who are engaged in Overseas Contingency Operations, which includes timely and reliable logistics support. The Department continually strives to improve the efficiency of its logistics processes, organizations, and systems – while maintaining readiness and ensuring effective support for America’s warfighters. The Assistant Secretary of Defense for Logistics and Materiel Readiness established four logistics goals: • Ensure effective logistics support for current operations; • Ensure effective management of contractors; • Integrate life cycle management principles into DOD and Service acquisition, and implement product support assessment recommendations; • Integrate supply chain operations that effectively support warfighters and are efficient from source of supply to point of consumption. Two key elements of the DOD logistics enterprise—Transportation Policy and Supply Chain Integration—are highlighted herein.

teroperability of distribution-related activities supporting force projection, sustainment, and redeployment/ retrograde of military forces and materiel. USTRANSCOM directs and supervises the execution of the distribution system and develops and implements distribution process improvements. USTRANSCOM’s assigned responsibilities as identified in the Unified Command Plan are: • Mobility Joint Force Provider • DOD Single Manager for Transportation • DOD Single Manager for Patient Movement • Distribution Process Owner • Global Distribution Operations • Global Standing Joint Force Headquarters. This way of doing business calls for partnering with world-class transportation service providers to improve reliability, predictability, and efficiency of moving DOD materiel to anywhere in the world where there is a need. The consolidation of responsibility under one process owner is aimed at realizing logistics efficiencies: eliminating existing seams between current distribution processes and standardizing the policies, vision, and performance goals in DOD’s supply chain; driving interoperable information technology solutions and enhancing total asset visibility to distribution customers; institutionalizing sustainment planning
into our contingency response processes; and streamlining distribution accountability (providing an accountable person for the supported combatant commander to contact for their distribution needs). USTRANSCOM works with the services and combatant commanders, using the best transformational concepts and ideas available. USTRANSCOM executes its mission through three component commands: 1. The US Army’s Military Surface Deployment and Distribution Command (SDDC) manages military land transportation and common-user ocean terminals. 2. The US Navy’s Military Sealift Command (MSC) is responsible for strategic sealift in support of worldwide deployment and sustainment of military forces. 3. The US Air Force’s Air Mobility Command (AMC) provides global airlift, aerial refueling, and aeromedical evacuation support for peacetime and wartime military movement requirements. USTRANSCOM also has one subordinate command, the Joint Enabling Capabilities Command (JECC). The JECC is designed to efficiently and effectively meet joint task force commanders’ requirements for a rapidly deployable, tailored team of experts in plans, operations, knowledge management, intelligence support, logistics, public affairs and communications. USTRANSCOM is responsible for distribution aspects of worldwide mobility planning and centralized global distribution management. Included in global distribution management is the responsibility of the command to support rapid execution planning, deployment, employment, and sustainment of US forces throughout the world. USTRANSCOM’s excellent relationship with the US commercial transportation industry allows DOD to augment organic capability and leverage significant capacity to meet both peacetime and wartime requirements. USTRANSCOM has published its command strategy, “Our Story 2013-2017” available at: www.transcom. mil/ strategy. DTJ

ir Mobility Command (AMC), a major command headquartered at Scott AFB, IL, was created June 1, 1992. AMC provides America’s global reach. This rapid, flexible, and responsive air mobility promotes stability in regions by keeping America’s capability and character highly visible. AMC’s mission is to provide global air mobility…right effects, right place, right time. The command enables humanitarian support at home and around the world. Mobility Air Forces Airmen—active duty, Air National Guard, Air Force Reserve, and civilians—provide airlift and aerial refueling for all of America’s armed forces. Many special duty and operational support aircraft and stateside aeromedical evacuation missions are also assigned to AMC. United States forces must be able to provide a rapid, tailored response. A core competency of mobility air forces
is rapid global mobility. This puts the “global” in the Air Force’s global reach, global vigilance and global power. As the US winds down operations first in Iraq and now Afghanistan, AMC provides critical flexibility for US national security. As US Transportation Command’s air component, AMC is the single manager for air mobility. AMC’s mission encompasses nearly 133,7000 active-duty and Air Reserve Component military and civilian personnel. The command has one numbered air force, 18th Air Force, which is charged with tasking and executing all air mobility missions. Units reporting to 18th Air Force include all operational AMC wings and groups based in the continental United States. They are key to the execution phase of warfighting, providing worldwide mobility support. The 618th Tanker Airlift Control Center (TACC), located at Scott AFB, also reports to 18th Air Force and serves as the organization’s air operations hub, planning and directing tanker and transport aircraft operations around the world. AMC also has one
major direct reporting unit, the USAF Expeditionary Center, located at Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst, NJ. It oversees air base wings and a contingency response wing, which provides expeditionary mobility support. The USAF Expeditionary Center also serves as the Air Force’s premier organization for expeditionary innovation, education, training, and exercises. AMC’s ability to provide global reach is tested daily. From providing fuel, supplies, and aeromedical support to troops on the front line, to providing humanitarian supplies to hurricane, flood, and earthquake victims both at home and abroad, AMC has been engaged in almost nonstop operations since its inception. Command tankers and airlifters have supported peacekeeping and humanitarian efforts throughout the world and continue to play a vital role today in Operation Enduring Freedom. These many examples of the effective application of non-lethal air power indicate that air mobility is a national asset of growing importance for responding to emergencies, and protecting national interests around the globe.

With a staff of nearly 400, including many with recent experience in-theater, the G-4 ensures that policies and resources are in places that are valuable to soldiers in the field. The coming year presents significant challenges for logisticians as the Army draws down its efforts in Afghanistan focusing on the redistribution, redeployment, reset, and return of tens of thousands of pieces of war-torn equipment while ensuring that all Soldiers in Afghanistan and those next to deploy, are prepared and ready. The G-4’s top priority is to ensure that the Army is successful in these logistics endeavors. Among the important policies being implemented are those that will improve Readiness and Discipline across the Supply, Maintenance, Distribution, and Operational Contract Support domains. Under fiscal constraints it is necessary to adapt logistics structure, processes, and policies to win the current fight while maintaining responsiveness for unforeseen contingencies. It is imperative that logistics innovations are driven to enable agility, effectiveness, and to reduce the cost of doing business. We are an Army in constant motion, and the G-4 stands ready to continue supporting our soldiers and service members to shape an even more efficient and effective logistics force. 26 |

APRIL 2014
HISTORY The DOT was established by an act of Congress on October 15, 1966. The department’s first official day of operation was April 1, 1967. The mission of DOT’s 60,000 employees is to serve the US by ensuring a fast, safe, efficient, accessible, and convenient transportation system that meets our vital national interests and enhances the quality of life of the American people, today and into the future. DOT STRATEGIC GOALS • Safety: Improving transportation safety remains DOT’s top priority. Our goal is to bring a departmentwide focus on reducing transportation-related fatalities and injuries. In our safety chapter, we highlight roadway safety for all users; combating distracted driving and other dangerous behaviors; the need for a more effective Federal role in transit safety; and our strategies for addressing the most serious safety risks in other surface transportation modes and in aviation. • State of Good Repair: Recent reports on the condition of key facilities—highways, bridges, transit systems, passenger rail and airport runways—reveal that many fall short of a state of good repair and thus compromise the safety, capacity, and efficiency of the US transportation system. DOT will bring a strong programmatic emphasis
and new resources to improving the condition of our infrastructure. DOT will encourage its government and industry partners to make optimal use of existing capacity, minimize life-cycle costs, and apply sound asset management principles throughout the system. • Economic Competitiveness: With demand for both freight and passenger transportation expected to more than double by 2050, our goal is to support the US economy by fostering smart, strategic investments that will serve the traveling public and facilitate freight movement. Our central strategies for achieving maximum economic returns on our policies and investments include leading the development of intercity, high-speed passenger rail and a competitive air transportation system; increasing travel time reliability in freight-significant highway corridors; improving the performance of freight rail and maritime networks; advancing transportation interests in targeted markets around the world; and expanding opportunities in the transportation sector for small businesses. • Livable Communities: Fostering livable communities—places where coordinated transportation, housing, and commercial development gives people access to affordable and environmentally sustainable transportation—is a transformational policy shift for DOT. Over the last 50 years, transportation spending has often been poorly coordinated with other infrastructure investments resulting in auto-dependent residential communities where access to job opportunities and key amenities is inadequate and expensive. Our livable communities chapter addresses these and other related issues to show how we will pursue coordinated, placebased policies and investments that increase transportation choices and access to public transportation services for all Americans. • Environmental Sustainability: Transportation is crucial to our economy
Department of Transportation (DOT) and our quality of life, but building, operating, and maintaining transportation systems clearly have significant environmental impacts on our air, water, and natural ecosystems. The transportation sector is a significant source of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, accounting for 33 percent of total US GHG emissions in 2009. Our environmental sustainability chapter describes how we will address these challenges through strategies such as fuel economy standards for cars and trucks, more environmentally sound construction and operational practices, and by expanding opportunities for shifting freight from less fuel-efficient modes to more fuel-efficient modes. • Organizational Excellence: Our organizational excellence chapter outlines the management strategies we will implement to make DOT a high-performance, outcome-driven agency, and the best place to work in the Federal government. OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY The Under Secretary of Transportation for Policy serves as a principal advisor to the Secretary and provides leadership in the development of policies for the Department, generating proposals and providing advice regarding legislative and regulatory initiatives across all modes of transportation. OFFICE OF TRANSPORTATION POLICY The Office of Transportation Policy is the office responsible for recommending overall surface transportation policy initiatives to the Secretary. The office coordinates multi-modal initiatives and processes, such as the development of DOT’s proposed reauthorization language, and the coordination of the President’s Executive Order on streamlining environmental reviews of transportation infrastructure. OFFICE OF ECONOMIC AND STRATEGIC ANALYSIS Initiates and develops Secretarial policies relating to the financing of transportation infrastructure; the use of
economic analysis in evaluating infrastructure investments, rulemakings, Departmental programs, and other initiatives; the use of economic analysis in reducing congestion and enhancing the efficient operation of transportation networks; and other applications of economic analysis in transportation policymaking. Provides economic analysis of recommendations and proposed rules. Oversees the development and implementation of the Department’s strategic plan. OFFICE OF SAFETY, ENERGY AND THE ENVIRONMENT Initiates and coordinates Secretarial policies on safety, environment and energy issues affecting all aspects of transportation. Provides technical expertise on safety, energy and environmental matters for the Department’s legislative, regulatory and research programs. Serves as the Departmental focal point for domestic and international initiatives related to safety, energy and environment. Conducts analyses and recommends policies for: reducing transportation fatality and injury rates, stewardship of the human and natural environment, including air quality, water quality, and historic resources, and protecting environmental health while improving the transportation system. OFFICE OF INFRASTRUCTURE FINANCE AND INNOVATION The Office of Infrastructure Finance and Innovation is primarily responsible, in coordination with the Office of the Chief Economist, for providing policy direction related to the implementation of infrastructure grant programs, credit programs and regulations that impact infrastructure development and operation. The Office shall play the lead role in advising the Assistant Secretary for Transportation Policy and the Under Secretary for Policy on the development of policies related to innovative finance and procurement.
OFFICE OF AVIATION AND INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS The Office of the Assistant Secretary for Aviation and International Affairs carries a broad portfolio of responsibilities covering domestic and international aviation, international trade, and a range of other international cooperation and facilitation issues. The Office of Aviation and International Affairs includes two principal jurisdictions: domestic and international aviation. The Office contributes directly to accomplishing DOT’s strategic goal of economic growth and trade, and advances America’s economic growth and competitiveness domestically and internationally through efficient and flexible transportation. The Office develops and coordinates Departmental policies in a wide spectrum of domestic and international aviation issues. GOVERNMENTAL AFFAIRS The Assistant Secretary for Governmental Affairs is the principal advisor to the Secretary, Deputy Secretary and senior staff with respect to legislative affairs, Congressional relations, and policy matters affecting Federal, state and local governments, and public and private interest groups. OFFICE OF INTELLIGENCE, SECURITY, AND EMERGENCY RESPONSE The Office of Intelligence, Security and Emergency Response ensures the development, coordination and execution of plans and procedures for the Department of Transportation to balance transportation security requirements with the safety, mobility and economic needs of the Nation through effective intelligence, security, preparedness and emergency response programs.

build in security, to ensure resilience, and to facilitate customs and exchange. Hundreds of thousands of people from across the federal government, state, local, tribal, and territorial governments, the private sector, and other nongovernmental organizations, are responsible for executing these missions. These are the people who regularly interact with the public, who are responsible for public safety and security, who own and operate our nation’s critical infrastructures and services, who perform research and develop technology, and who keep watch, prepare for, and respond to emerging threats and disasters. These homeland security professionals must have a clear sense of what it takes to achieve the overarching vision articulated above. THE CORE MISSIONS There are five homeland security missions: 1. Prevent terrorism and enhance security 2. Secure and manage our borders 3. Enforce and administer our immigration laws 4. Safeguard and secure cyberspace 5. Ensure resilience to disasters. In achieving these goals, we are continually strengthening our partnerships with communities, first respond-

EMA is the central point of contact within the federal government for a wide range of emergency planning and response activities. It works closely with all levels of government and the emergency management community to improve the nation’s state of civil preparedness and ability to respond effectively to crises of all kinds. FEMA is headquartered in Washington, DC, with regional and area offices across the country, and the Mount
Weather Emergency Operations Center, National Emergency Training Center in Emmitsburg, MD, and the Center for Domestic Preparedness in Anniston, AL. Often FEMA works in partnership with other organizations that are part of the nation’s emergency management team. These partners include state and local emergency management agencies, 27 federal agencies, the American Red Cross, and other non-governmental entities, including the faith-based community. DTJ
can happen at any time, anywhere. They can range from natural disas“tersEmergencies such as earthquakes, tsunamis, or flooding, to events such as power outages. The key to successful emergency response, regardless of the nature of the event, is personal preparedness. Our pressing objective, as a nation and as individuals, is to be prepared through a few simple steps: make an emergency plan, get an emergency supply kit, and be informed of the hazards in your area. —Craig Fugate, FEMA Administrator

s the federal government’s workplace solutions provider, the US General Services Administration works to foster an effective, sustainable, and transparent government for the American people. GSA’s expertise in government workplace solutions include: • Effective management of government assets including more than 9,600 government-owned or leased buildings, and 215,000 vehicles in the federal fleet, and preservation of historic federal properties; • Leveraging the government’s buying power through responsible acquisition of products and services making up approximately 14 percent of the government’s total procurement dollars;
The Federal Acquisition Service (FAS) provides the best value services, products, and solutions to customers and increases overall government effectiveness and efficiency. FAS has 4 business portfolios: Integrated Technology Services, Assisted Acquisition Services, General Supplies and Services, Travel, Motor Vehicles, and Card Services. Benefits of FAS include a deeper understanding by GSA of customer requirements; stronger management of the agency’s acquisition processes and programs; and greater integration of GSA business lines to provide multiple channels for customers to acquire the products, services, and solutions needed. FAS makes it possible for GSA to deliver excellent acquisition services efficiently and effectively, while providing value to federal customers and the taxpayer. The Office of Travel and Transportation Services (T&T) offers enterprisewide, government-wide, solutions—using an integrated shared services strategy. T&T provides the subject matter expertise and procurement support so customers can stay focused on their mission.
Due to this leveraged buying, business approach, the savings are significant— estimated $5.9B is saved annually with our airline City Pair Program alone. The Center for Travel Management manages travel programs that are used by over 100 agencies and bureaus and thousands of travelers for air, hotel, online travel management, data reporting and training, to support customer agencies to efficiently manage their travel spend. The E-Gov Travel Service (ETS), an end-to-end, online travel management service, consolidated and transformed travel management to a single platform that integrates all of the programs for distribution. To include the airline City Pair Program which has expanded to more than 5,000 markets, fares offered are discounted considerably off comparable commercial fares, and allow government travelers benefits of no advance purchase, tickets are fully refundable, and there is last seat availability. Also ETS provides access to the FedRooms lodging program with more than 13,500 quality hotels worldwide, all approved by FEMA with rates at or below per diem. Next generation ETS2 will build on the success of ETS1 using cloud-based technology. The Center for Transportation Management offers three strategic service areas: a multi-modal freight program which has launched a Transportation Management Service to assist agencies in streamlining the management of their transportation; the Employee Relocation Resource Center which provides support for 57% of civilian agencies’ home sales and household goods moved annually; and one of the most successful, Federal Strategic Sourcing Initiative, Domestic Delivery Service2 for small parcel delivery.

The modification is certified by FAA under a Supplemental Type Certificate (STC). 10 Tanker’s management, maintenance, flight operations, training, and safety programs are endorsed by either or both FAA and the OEM (Boeing), and comply with 14 CFR – 137. Now in its eighth year of fire suppression operations, 10 Tanker has flown 685 missions on 129 fires in 12 US states and two foreign countries. The DC 10’s unparalleled success is due principally to three breakthroughs: • CAPACITY – 11,600 US gallons (44,000 liters) per load – six to ten times that of conventional tankers – effective line building of ¾ mile per drop • SPEED/REACH – Jet speed to/from, putting the asset within an hour of fires up to 500 miles distant • COST EFFECTIVENESS – lowest cost per gallon delivered

Recent and ongoing conflicts have demonstrated vulnerabilities and shortcomings with existing military logistics transportation capabilities. One of US military’s interests in the advanced variable buoyancy air vehicle is providing “direct delivery”, heavy lifting, and VTOL capability to fielded forces (including sea base connectors), with minimal infrastructure requirements, and reducing the cost of airlift. Aeros makes this a reality by providing a new type of global verticallift air transport vehicle called the Aeroscraft. This “game-changer” vehicle offers new capabilities for the war-fighter, providing the ability to transport personnel and equipment “from fort to fight”. This innovative cargo airship will reinvent air cargo transport.

Creating Supply Chain Leaders Irvin Varkonyi, President, Supply Chain Operations Preparedness Education (SCOPE) ivarkonyi@scopedu.com
I
n late January 2014, a two day workshop “Supply Chain Leadership Initiative Design” was conducted by USAID/Deliver Project and the System for Improved Access to Pharmaceuticals and Services (SIAPS) to explore the impact of leadership in optimizing supply chain performance. The workshop offered an opportunity to address an aspect of supply chain management, its leadership, which is not often addressed in professional development of supply chain professionals. Let’s start by addressing the key focus of our topic—leaders and leadership. “Supply chain leaders today are at the cusp of having to oversee all aspects of the business of their organizations—from internal capacities and capabilities to external supply chain operations—and understanding how these serve evolving business models.”1 Supply chain leaders have been tasked with designing and executing efficient and resilient supply chains which overcome the challenges of differences in language, culture, technology, economic levels, and more. SKILLS REQUIRED TO BE AN EFFECTIVE SUPPLY CHAIN LEADER
What are some of the attributes required to be an effective supply chain leader? 1. The ability to understand the end-toend supply chain 2. Possess experience in major aspects of the supply chain such as acquisition, production, manufacturing, distribution, and reverse logistics 3.

3. Proficiency in Information Technology 4. An ability to assess environmental trends and their impact on supply chain sustainability 5. Mentoring and guiding emerging professionals 6. A metrics orientation, utilizing tools to develop measurements for success 7. A cross functional attitude which leads toward dissolving silos and stovepipes3 Effective Supply Chain leaders will focus on the process just as much on outcomes. Efficient processes will produce desired results. Operational excellence drives supply chain leaders. Collaboration extends not only to departments within a company, but externally among suppliers and vendors in the horizontally integrated organization which has become popular and effective. The USAID/SIAPS conference sought answers which contribute to the development of supply chain leaders. Because the majority of attendees at the conference are in the field of global public health, much emphasis was placed on leadership in public health supply chains. However, many characteristics of leadership in this field are found in other supply chains. MILITARY SUPPLY CHAIN LEADERSHIP PROGRAMS
Penn State University’s Smeal College of Business offers a Certificate in Supply Chain Leadership. It focuses on aligning business strategies with supply chain strategies, financial leadership, technology, and acquisition. This is an executive program. Military personnel who have attended the Marine Corps Logistics Education Program (MCLEP); MCLEP Non-Resident Program; programs administered at the Army Logistics Management College (ALMC); or those who have completed NAVICP should contact Penn State Executive Programs to learn more. The US Army recognize the value of leadership (as do all branches of our military) including logistics leadership. “As the Combined Arms Support Command (CASCOM) continues to develop the

Globally Responsive Sustainment Strategy, it has both the need and the opportunity to integrate the learning initiatives it is undertaking into a comprehensive logistics leader development strategy to produce adaptive and creative sustainers with the skills and knowledge to operate in the future environment.”4 The army strategy includes career maps that give participants the opportunity to develop themselves from the tactical through the operational and strategic levels of the logistics enterprise. “Those competencies, applicable to officer professional development, pertain to four main learning areas of military logistics: planning, Distribution/Supply Chain Management (D/SCM), Life Cycle Systems Management (LCSM), and Defense Industrial Base Management (DIBM). These areas are by no means mutually exclusive; yet, when considered holistically, they make up the professional discipline of military logistics.”5 EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE
How much can we teach a person to be a leader? How much can we facilitate the person to develop their own learning? How much of the characteristics of leadership are we born with, and which experience and training can ensure these traits are developed in a positive way? We might consider the aspect of emotional intelligence, a critical aspect of determining effective leadership. There are five components of emotional intelligence that are at work in leaders: 1. Self-awareness – the ability to recognize and understand your moods, emotions, drivers 2. Self-regulation – the ability to control or redirect disruptive impulses and moods 3. Motivation – a passion to work for reasons that go beyond money or status 4. Empathy – the ability to understand the emotional make up of other people 5. Social skill – proficiency in managing relationships and building networks6 continued on page 128

Rock Island Requiem Rock Island Requiem by Gregory L. Schneider (University Press of Kansas, 2013), ISBN-13: 9780700619184, 392 pages, Hardcover, $32.00).

elebrated in history and song, the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific Railroad—the Rock Island Line—was a powerful Midwestern railroad that once traversed thirteen states with its fast freights and Rocket passenger trains, but eventually succumbed to government regulation and a changing economy. Gregory Schneider chronicles the Rock Island’s painful decline and along the way reveals some of the key problems within the American railroad industry during the post-WWII era. Schneider takes readers back to a time when railroads still clung to a storied past

the past, albeit for very short periods of time. The falling ice was an unforeseen problem no one had planned for; now that it has been identified, I’m sure a solution will be found to deal with a recurrence in the future. In the worst case, we’ll just have to wait it out. Politicians can be equally myopic where transportation infrastructure is concerned. For example, our governor doesn’t seem to see the absurdity of extoling the virtues of South Carolina as a pro-business state while simultaneously and vehemently refusing to even consider a modest increase in the state’s fuel tax, which is currently one of the lowest in the nation. I’ve discussed the shocking lack of funding in South Carolina for basic road maintenance in this column before and won’t belabor it. I will say, however, that the deterioration of our highways and bridges is only getting
to offer new insight into the devastating impact of economic policymaking during the 1960s and 1970s. Schneider recounts the largest railroad liquidation in American history, as well as one of the most successful reorganizations in American business, to depict the demise and ultimate collapse of Rock Island as part of a broader account of hard times in the railroad industry beginning in the 1970s. I couldn’t help but see the similarities between the paths of the Rock Island Line and Pan Am. Both were highly successful carriers in their day, yet unable to survive in a free-market environment. This work is an excellent chronicle both of one of the nation’s great railroads and of the damage restrictive federal regulatory policies inflicted on the industry as a whole. DTJ worse, to the detriment of all businesses moving goods throughout the state. Yes, I know…we’re wimps where winter weather is concerned. Heck, avoiding such unpleasantness is one of the reasons many of us moved down here. In our defense, however, we rarely get such an extreme dose, so we don’t have the equipment or material available to handle it. And judging by the pounding you all were getting farther to the north, perhaps there are simply some events that are impossible to plan for. For better or worse, they simply must be dealt with as they unfold. Despite all of the forecasting, advanced warning, and media coverage, many of us were still unprepared for the ferocity of the actual event. But when I saw The Weather Channel’s Jim Cantore broadcasting live from the Cistern Yard at the College of Charleston, a block away from my office, I knew we were in for it. DTJ

CONCLUSION
Supply Chain Management is the internal integration of multiple functions of an organization and the eternal integration with its suppliers/vendors. Leadership in the supply chain recognizes the cross functional nature of supply chain management. Individual leaders have developed their personal characteristics, gained experience and learned skills that enhanced their emotional intelligence, which motivates and drives their teams to achieve collaborative success. We are not born to lead, but we are capable of growing into supply chain leaders by utilizing our personal capabilities and learning from our experiences. DTJ 1 2 3
