New milestone in NATO Logistic Information Management system

Abstract

As with many large organisations, EU recognises the advantages that being able to work in a standard way brings. EU and NATO nations will use a Logistic Information Management (LIM) concept that couples available information technology with logistic processes and practices. The Logistic Information Management will focus on identifying logistic information requirements that meet the EU nation's needs. Implementation of this concept should reduce management and support costs, the logistic footprint and logistic support delivery time. It should also enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of multinational logistic support.
