Performance-Based Logistics
Defense organizations continue to increasingly outsource logistics management of critical weapon systems to commercial service providers under Performance-Based Logistics (PBL) or availability contracts. The drivers for this trend include both internal organizational and external factors that that all point toward the need for asset optimization and cost-effectiveness across a network of aftermarket logistics partners.
In order to achieve or surpass contract targets, PBL contractors need real-time access to integrated maintenance and supply data, total asset visibility, a complimentary set of performance metrics and automated decision support tools for optimizing decision-making. This requires advanced, specialized software tools to provide enhanced item management support, information currency and transparency, and seamless communication with the battle field.
Please refer to the following pages for information on the challenges facing PBL contractors and how Miro's GOLDesp™ software meets those challenges.
