T

he National Defense Transportation Association Scholarship program supports NDTA members of any age. Two programs are available: Academic Scholarship A—tuition assistance to college students enrolled in an undergraduate degree program in transportation, physical distribution, logistics, or a combination; and Academic Scholarship B—tuition assistance to college freshmen and graduating high school students planning to attend college. Applicants must indicate that they plan to enroll in an undergraduate degree program. There are no limits placed on the areas of study, but transportation, logistics, and related fields are encouraged.

NDTA members and their financial dependents are eligible. The NDTA Forum Education and Professional Development Committee awards scholarships annually to select individuals based upon academic performance and extracurricular involvement. In 2008, NDTA Headquarters and Chapters awarded scholarships totaling more than $100,000. Kevin Kovanda, one of the recipients, shares his thoughts about NDTA and the program.

How did you learn about the NDTA scholarship?

I heard about the NDTA undergraduate scholarship through the financial department at Cal Maritime and I was encouraged to apply.

What is your relationship to NDTA? I am a student member of NDTA (San Francisco Bay Area Chapter) and I support the organization’s main mission to promote an efficient global transportation system. My program of study directly relates to NDTA since it is focused on educating marine engineers who operate ocean-going ship propulsion plants and who move goods worldwide—both crucial to the US global economy.

Where do you go to school and what degree are you pursuing?

I am a student at the California Maritime Academy studying Marine Engineering Technology.

What are your career goals?

I plan to graduate in nuclear engineering, become a professionally licensed engineer, and follow my entrepreneurial spirit in running a business.

What do you believe the future holds for the transportation industry as it relates to your specific area?

Transportation requires a physical driving force propelling the freight, and this need is intensified with the current conflicts facing both the environment and the economy. My specific area within this industry is focused at providing an efficient and sustainable energy source for diverse power plants on large machines.

Tell us about your experience at the NDTA Forum in Reno/Tahoe.

It was a great opportunity! I gained valuable contacts, picked up some intriguing information on industrial developments, and I had the chance to say “Thanks” to everyone for the financial support.

There are multiple fund raising activities in support of the National Defense Transportation Association Scholarship Fund including the corporate sponsored activities at the Forum, local chapter events, and the ever popular A-35 Duck Race. As an NDTA member, please consider how you can support this program or who might be a deserving recipient. Applications for 2009 must be submitted and postmarked no later than April 16. For more information, please call Mark Victorson at NDTA Headquarters (703-751-5011) or email him at mark@ndtahq.com. DTJ

EDITORIAL Thoughts on the Global Economic Crisis Dr. Kent N. Gourdin, Editor DTJ Director, Global Logistics and Transportation Program College of Charleston

M

any of you know that I take a group of logistics students to The Netherlands every year.

Having just returned from my tenth trip, I can say that the economy is just as bad there as it is here. Business failures, layoffs, and significant declines were evident at all of the businesses we visited: cargo volumes have fallen at the Port of Rotterdam, which means that rail movements are down as well; thousands of Honda cars (motorcycles and power equipment as well) are sitting at the port in Antwerp because consumers are not buying them.

In short, doom and gloom is everywhere.

One bright spot, though, was that the Port of Rotterdam’s Second Maasvlakte project, which involves reclaiming 2500 acres of land from the North Sea, will move ahead. Major environmental groups have agreed to work together with the Port to ameliorate adverse impacts rather than continuing to oppose the development.

I hope that a similar spirit of cooperation will occur in the United States as federal stimulus funds earmarked for transportation infrastructure improvements begin to appear. What a great opportunity for us to begin the task of rebuilding roads, bridges, locks, and/or canals, although a beginning is really what we’re looking at even with those funds. The fact is that transportation rights of way have historically been viewed as almost free goods by those of us who use them.

Our cost is primarily hidden in fuel taxes, which most of us never see, much less think about. These taxes then go into some trust fund or another depending on mode, and are then supposed to be used for infrastructure development and repair. Unfortunately, the flaws in this model are fast becoming apparent. As vehicle fuel efficiency increases, operators consume less fuel to cover the same number of miles. Similarly, if the demand for gas/diesel drops, people simply drive

less. When you have the economic conditions we do today, both factors combine to significantly reduce the amount of fuel being purchased and thus the amount of money flowing into the trust funds.

One way to maintain the inflow is to revamp the amount we pay to use transport resources and the methods for collecting those monies. Fuel taxes at the pump could be raised to an amount more reflective of real costs, but, as I noted above, we tend to view what we pay as the price without considering the tax component.

Thus we’d see a whopping price increase, which could further dampen demand. Another possibility is to jack up freight rates to, again, reflect the cost of building and maintaining the infrastructure required to support our demand for goods. I’ve even seen proposals for a mileage-based system whereby each driver would be taxed based upon the actual mileage he/she drove. In a way, such a system makes a lot of sense

in that those who are the heaviest users of our transportation resources would pay the most. Indeed, global positioning technology would make this system frighteningly easy to implement, privacy and other social concerns notwithstanding.

Clearly, there are major long-term issues regarding transport infrastructure financing that the country will have to address. But we have a wonderful chance to jump-start necessary projects with the President’s economic stimulus plan, and I believe we can work together to minimize the negative environmental impacts that can result from construction efforts of such magnitude. At the same time, however, we need to stop thinking of transportation infrastructure as free goods. But one thing at a time. Everyone decries the crumbling state of our roads and bridges; this may be our only chance to begin to do something about it. I hope we don’t blow it. DTJ

PRESIDENT’S CORNER NDTA Membership— Your BEST ADVANTAGE LTG Ken Wykle, USA (Ret.) NDTA President

I

n the last issue of the DTJ, I wrote about the economic difficulties expected for 2009. The economy remains weak, and even with the massive stimulus bill, the economic future is uncertain. The demands for goods and services have declined. Industry is responding by layingoff employees, reducing capacity, and restructuring. The impact is reflected across the transportation and logistics industry.

During these challenging times, I am often asked, “Why should our company be a corporate member of NDTA?” Corporate membership provides increased exposure and networking opportunities for companies wanting to do business with the DOD and other US government departments. NDTA membership should be a key part of any business plan where the defense and government transportation, travel, and logistics system is the target market. Corporate member executives have the opportunity to share ideas with senior military, government, and industry officials at NDTA events. These events are conducted and attended by senior decision makers in defense, government, and industry—the individuals who are setting and influencing the transportation, travel, and logistics agenda for the future.

Through corporate membership in NDTA, your company can: • BUILD relationships with other business executives and military leaders.

NDTA provides the opportunity to meet and speak with military, government, and industry leaders and form the personal relationships that may be beneficial when operational issues arise.

Attending and participating in committee meetings and key events are essential to building these relationships.

• BROADEN your network in other industry segments. Broaden your network with other industry executives through attendance at functional meetings, CEO level events, and annual conferences. Many of our corporate members establish corporate business relationships with other companies through their involvement in NDTA. • MARKET your business through media coverage, advertisement, press releases, promotions, sponsorship, and exhibits. NDTA publishes a bi-monthly Journal. Members have the opportunity to write articles for publication, to promote their products and services, and to receive exposure by participating in events and NDTA Chapter level activities. Additionally, NDTA publishes a monthly electronic news letter, the NDTA Gram, available to members for press releases, short articles, accomplishments, and brand promotions.

• SHARE your knowledge, expertise, and ideas. We provide opportunities for members to share their knowledge by speaking at local chapter events, committee meetings, annual conferences, and to lead breakout sessions during the Forum. Sharing knowledge through articles in the Defense Transportation Journal or NDTA Gram is also available.

• SOLVE issues of common interest by participating in functional committees, commenting on regulatory or policy issues, and actively participating in seminars, professional sessions, and one-on-one meetings with the individuals responsible for an action.

• STAY CURRENT on industry trends.

NDTA is a non-political, non-profit educational association. We strive to keep our members and senior government

leaders informed of actions and trends in the transportation and logistics industries. This is achieved by conducting seminars, scheduling expert speakers, providing workshops and breakout sessions at major events, through our publications, preparation of white papers, and lessons learned reports.

• LEND YOUR VOICE to DOD and other government entities during discussions of critical industry issues. NDTA provides the DOD and government agencies a “window” into industry. In return, industry has an opportunity to contribute their thoughts and ideas to issues being “worked” by DOD and government.

What do corporate members say about NDTA? “I have gained personally as a member of the NDTA through friendships that last a lifetime. My company has gained, too, through strong and viable networks into the DOD transportation and logistics community.”

“NDTA is a key partner to our company in communicating issues of importance to our clients and for our clients. We often turn to NDTA to help us get out the message on critical issues affecting our industry.”

“We are members of three professional associations. NDTA provides the greatest business benefit to our company.” continued on page 127

A

n ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. This is the idea behind a new initiative developed

by MSC and other key defense, maritime, and law enforcement agencies to reduce the vulnerability of US-flagged cargo carriers to piracy attacks.

Working together, representatives from numerous entities within the DOD, Department of Homeland Security, and DOT have pooled their anti-piracy ship security best practices and trained representatives to—if requested by a shipping company— visit a specific US-flagged ship in port, conduct a thorough shipboard walk-through, evaluate the ship’s vulnerability, to piracy and offer recommendations.

MSC’s role in the process has been to coordinate the military participation in the process and represent the USTRANSCOM, which uses the commercial shipping industry as one of many transportation options to move DOD cargo overseas. Now that the teams are in place, MARAD has taken control as the program administrator and the interface of the program to the shipping industry as part of its security and training mission area for the US merchant marine.

The ship visits will be conducted by Anti-Piracy Assistance Teams made up of one representative from MARAD and one from the Naval Criminal Investigative Service. Occasionally, the teams will

include a third member from the Department of Homeland Security’s Federal Law Enforcement Training Center.

“These teams bring assets and knowledge that we have in the military to the commercial industry and reinforce the US’s ongoing efforts against piracy,” said Joe Harriss of MSC’s operations division, who leads the command’s participation in the development of the anti-piracy teams.

“This initiative demonstrates to US industry that the military and Maritime Administration are doing everything we can to help protect US-flagged ships.”

International incidents of piracy reported to the International Maritime Bureau increased from 263 to 293 between 2007 and

2008. The increase was most dramatic in the Gulf of Aden, where piracy attacks increased from 31 in 2007 to 111 in 2008—more than 50 of those in the last four months of the year. An estimated 23,000 ships traverse those waters annually.

The world’s navies have responded.

The United States, China, India, Russia, and the European Union are among those that have sent ships to patrol the waters off of the Somali coast. The recently established multinational force, Combined Task Force 151, is currently operating in the Gulf of Aden with the aim of coordinating all anti-piracy efforts.

Though patrols of these lawless waters are increasingly frequent and more organized, not every bit of ocean can be protected. It would take an estimated 61 ships to control the internationally designated shipping route through the Gulf of Aden, which is only a fraction of the 1.1 million square miles where pirates have attacked.

“The most effective measures we’ve seen to defeat piracy are defensive in nature,” said Vice Adm. Gortney, Combined Mar-

And this is where the Anti-Piracy Assistance Teams come in. Working from a checklist of about 100 items developed by the Navy Expeditionary Combat Command, MARAD, and the Navy Criminal Investigative Service and Federal Law Enforcement Training Center (with additional input from industry), these teams are prepared to thoroughly assess a ship and crew’s preparedness to detect, deter, disrupt, and delay pirate attacks.

Items on the list range from the tangible such as the ship’s physical infrastructure to the intangible such as the status of vessel security plans and crew awareness of the latest anti-piracy tactics, techniques, and procedures.

A visit from one of these specially trained teams is voluntary, as is the implementation of any recommendations provided. The ship visits are also provided to commercial shipping companies at no cost and may be requested from MARAD, which administers the program. A copy of the assessment checklist is then provided to the ship’s master and the company’s

Catawba assists pirated Faina

By Gillian Brigham, Sealift Logistics Command Europe Public Affairs

For four months, the crew of Military Sealift Command fleet ocean tug USNS Catawba watched over the Ukrainian-owned, Belizeflagged cargo ship MV Faina that was hijacked by Somali pirates in the Indian Ocean September 25.

When Faina was released from the pirates February 5, Catawba’s crew immediately began preparations to get Faina underway.

Though the tug does not typically provide fuel to other ships, the crew rigged a device that allowed them to transfer fuel to the newly freed ship.

Before getting underway, Catawba’s crew filled up all of their ship’s five-gallon jugs with water for Faina’s mariners. The tug crew donated shoes, shirts, coveralls, socks, underwear, shampoo, soap, Gatorade, and food. In a final act of generosity, the civil service mariners aboard Catawba personally gave more than $2100 to help Faina’s crew get back on their feet.

“We had the opportunity to do something that, in the end, was really, really, significant,” said Capt. Charles Rodriguez, Catawba’s civil service master. “Captain Nikolsky’s letter brought it home to each of us. He let us know how truly significant our seemingly endless routine of standing by to provide assistance had been.”

“The letter sent by the captain of MV Faina was the best letter I have received in my entire life,” agreed Catawba’s supply officer Efren Apostol. “I feel so proud of being a member of MSC.”

chief security officer so that they can conduct their own review prior to the team’s arrival on board.

When the team boards the ship, it will spend about 90 minutes with the master and shipping company’s chief security officer to discuss and review any vulnerabilities identified, as well as any additional concerns noted by the visiting team. Before departing, the team will debrief the master and the chief security officer with its findings.

A written report containing an analysis of vulnerabilities and possible solutions will later be presented to the company chief security officer. At this point, the chief security officer will be equipped to conduct the assessment on the rest of the ships in that company’s fleet.

“The main benefit of this program is the information sharing,” said Harriss. “Industry has already developed and implemented its own piracy prevention measures, which we are able to enhance through these teams by bringing in expertise from the military, which has a different perspective and therefore perhaps other useful information to share.”

Training for the Anti-Piracy Team members was conducted in early February aboard two Ready Reserve Force ships in Newport News, VA. After perfecting their approach in practice sessions aboard the government-owned ships (with input from industry), the newly trained teams conducted an assessment aboard a privately owned and operated US-flagged ship.

PIRACY ON THE HIGH SEAS | March 2009 Timeline (as the DTJ goes to press)

New tactics include the attack of ships further out to sea; “motherships,” which may appear innocuous-looking civilian vessels, are utilized. Vessels need to be vigilant to unusual vessels, particularly those that do not respond to communication and even those that appear adrift, in distress, or with their lights off at night. Near shore, incidents appear at dawn, making it difficult for watchmen to spot activity. Harbor area involvement restricts trade and commerce and weakens supply lines.

4 March 2009 Trawlers attacked off Bangladesh (15 fishermen injured; theft of equipment and catch)

3 March 2009 Security alerts prompt UAE to expand harbor facilities at al-Fujavrah (intent to counteract threat of hostile Iranian activity in the Straits of Hormuz)

16 March 2009 Kidnapping in Cameroon waters (3 people seized by militants in speedboats)

5 March 2009 Blue Star released by Somali pirates (28 crew and 6000 tonnes of fertilizer held captive for 64 days; reportedly $1 million in ransom)

26 March 2009 Hijack reported 400 miles off Somalia (Greekowned vessel)

20 March 2009 Vessel seized off Somalia (Titan with 24 crew members aboard)

“We have had formal and informal discussions with international and US shipping industry on the idea of creating these Anti-Piracy Assistance Teams as a means of sharing best practices since late in 2008,” said Kevin Tokarski of MARAD. “Our commercial partners have been both receptive to and supportive of the idea.”

MARAD has already received industry requests to work with the teams and anticipates that ship visits will begin before spring 2009.

“We all recognize that the merchant mariner crews know their vessels and vulnerabilities best,” said Tokarski. “However, with this program we can share the latest anti-piracy techniques being developed by the US military, and that exchange of information will, hopefully, result in safer commercial shipping.”

As the program moves into the execution phase, MSC will continue in an active role, providing assistance in evaluating and updating both the content of the checklists as well as procedures for the teams. DTJ

Enhancing Supply Chain Operations in Tough Times XIO Strategies’ survey reveals deployment priorities for 2009

by James Clark, COO, XIO Strategies

The DOD has made great strides in the past few years, building initiatives that significantly enhance supply chain and asset visibility through the use of technology.

But recently, a question has been lingering: How will DOD programs be impacted by the current budget crisis in Washington?

E

ach year, XIO Strategies conducts an Automated Identification Technology (AIT) market survey to understand the current state of deployment within the DOD. For readers new to the topic, the term AIT refers to a suite of technologies used by the DOD and other organizations to facilitate streamlined processes through electronic data capture. This year, XIO focused on three technologies:

1000 employees, but with some smaller companies weighing in as well.

to why IUID scored top marks for enabling Maintenance & Repair functions.

Overall Impressions As indicated in Chart 1, respondents appear to be less daunted about typical AIT deployment challenges than they were in 2007, with fewer respondents across the board indicating that they anticipated a “major” or “moderate” challenge with the issues. Because nearly two-thirds of the respondents indicated that at least one AIT is currently being implemented or in use in their organization, the results show that the group is familiar with AIT and that

2009 Outlook Because many technology deployment programs span several years, the survey results indicated only moderate impact due to the financial crisis thus far. In Chart 2, respondents indicate that considerable levels of investment are expected across the supply chain, with Shipping/Receiving and Inventory Management being the main areas of focus, consistent with the transactional benefits enabled by AIT. When asked to indicate which technologies would be used

CHART 1. Respondents’ Concerns about Deployment Deployment Challenge

• Active RFID (aRFID), • Passive RFID (pRFID), and • Item Unique Identification (IUID) But in November, the survey hit the streets at a particularly fascinating time.

As people watched their retirement plans decline and organizations across the federal government held their collective breaths to await any budgetary impacts, responses to the XIO survey brought valuable insight into the 2009 outlook for technology deployment programs.

Survey Demographics More than half of the respondents work directly for DOD or a DOD contractor, with other major organizational types including manufacturing and logistics companies.

More than two-thirds of the respondents are “in the trenches” today, serving as program and project managers or technical staff supporting supply chain, logistics, or transportation, with an additional 16% in the executive ranks. As is typical of DOD-oriented surveys, more than half were from organizations of greater than 16 |

adoption is proceeding. Cost, IT Integration, and Time-to-Implement remained the top three challenges in 2008.

The survey also confirmed how RFID and IUID are used to support supply chain, as well as functional operations. Respondents indicated that aRFID is used primarily in the Shipping/Receiving and Transportation areas, while pRFID appears to be increasing as a tool for inventory management.

Outside the supply chain, both aRFID and pRFID are used primarily for asset management, including IT assets.

As expected, respondents indicated a broad use of IUID in Shipping/Receiving and Inventory Management processes. It is, however, encouraging to find that IUID part marking is being incorporated into the manufacturing process, which provides the greatest ability to leverage the Unique Item Identifier (UII) throughout the item lifecycle. This may be a contributing factor as

CHART 2. Projected 2009 Investment in Supply Chain Process Improvement

to support the improvements, RFID and IUID were the overwhelming choices.

Driving benefits through AIT adoption can help organizations address current financial pressures while improving longterm competitive advantage.

From the standpoint of improving functional support through AIT, respondents indicated that Asset Management, particularly for IT assets, will continue to be a key focus. However, Document Management and Facility Access/Security also garnered more than 20% of respondents in this area, further demonstrating that organizations are seeking to leverage AIT for additional business process improvements.

Organization and Mission When combatant commands, Services, other agencies, and coalition partners require movement, they rely on USTRANSCOM. Since 2003, USTRANSCOM has been responsible for the synchronization and interoperability of distribution-related activities supporting force projection, sustainment, and redeployment/retrograde of military forces and materiel. As the Distribution Process Owner (DPO), USTRANSCOM directs and supervises the execution of the distribution system and develops and implements distribution process improvements.

USTRANSCOM’s assigned responsibilities are to:

April 2009

This new 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). The DPO works with the Services and combatant commanders, using the best transformational concepts and ideas available.

USTRANSCOM executes its mission through three component commands. The US Army’s Military Surface Deployment and Distribution Command (SDDC) manages military land transportation and common-user ocean terminals. The US Navy’s Military Sealift Command (MSC) is responsible for strategic sealift in support of worldwide deployment and sustainment of military forces. 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 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.

A

ir Mobility Command (AMC), a major command headquartered at Scott Air Force Base, 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 also plays a crucial role in providing humanitarian support at home and around the world. AMC 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 with a capability to intervene against a well-equipped foe, hit hard, and terminate quickly. Rapid global mobility lies at the heart of US strategy in this environment—without the capability to project forces, there is no conventional deterrent. As US forces stationed overseas continue to decline, global interests remain, making the unique capabilities only AMC can provide even more in demand.

As US Transportation Command’s air component, AMC is the single manager for air mobility.

AMC’s mission encompasses nearly 136,000 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 AMC wings and groups based in the continental United States, as well as two expeditionary mobility task forces—the 15th EMTF at Travis AFB, CA, and the 21st EMTF at McGuire AFB, NJ. The 15th and 21st EMTFs serve as lead agencies for conducting mobility operations worldwide.

They are key to the execution phase of warfighting by providing worldwide expeditionary mobility support.

The 618th Tanker Airlift Control Center, 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 Fort Dix, NJ, which 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 frontline 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 Operations Iraqi and 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.

he Navy’s Military Sealift Command (MSC) provides ocean transportation for DOD cargo to sustain US forces worldwide during peacetime and in war. More than 90 percent of all the equipment and supplies needed to sustain the US military are carried by sea. MSC also operates Naval Fleet Auxiliary Force ships that replenish and support the Navy fleet at sea as well as Special Mission ships that serve as at-sea platforms for various federal government agencies.

MSC operates approximately 110 ships on a daily basis and has access to more than 60 additional ships either kept in reduced operating status by MSC or maintained by the US Department of Transportation’s Maritime Administration in the Ready Reserve Force. Headquartered in Washington, DC, MSC has a workforce of more than 9000 people and six major subordinate commands worldwide. Military Sealift Fleet Support Command in Norfolk, VA, crews, trains, equips, and maintains MSC’s government-owned, government-operated ships around the globe. In addition, five operational commands support the operations of all MSC ships within their area of responsibility: Sealift Logistics Command Atlantic in Norfolk, VA; Sealift Logistics Command Pacific in San Diego, CA; Sealift Logistics Command Europe in Naples, Italy; Sealift Logistics Command Central in Manama, Bahrain;

and Sealift Logistics Command Far East in Singapore.

MSC reports to US Transportation Command at Scott AFB, IL, for Department of Defense transportation matters, providing sealift for combat equipment and humanitarian aid cargo as required.

MSC reports to US Fleet Forces Command in Norfolk, VA, for Navyunique matters. In this capacity, MSC’s Naval Fleet Auxiliary Force ships and Special Mission ships support the Navy’s fleet operations worldwide.

MSC reports to the Assistant Secretary of the Navy for Research, Development, and Acquisition as a contracting authority and for procurement policy and oversight matters.

MAJOR INITIATIVES MSC continues to move military cargo and supplies used by deployed US and coalition forces, to strategically preposition combat cargo at sea around the world, to conduct specialized missions and to replenish US Navy ships at sea.

The command now operates one of the Navy’s two submarine tenders and will begin operation of the second tender in 2010, continuing the trend of recruiting civilian mariners and returning sailors to their warfighting duties, thus saving money for the Navy. Military Sealift Command and her maritime industry partners deliver. DTJ

he US Army Materiel Command (AMC) mission is to provide superior technology, acquisition support, and logistics to ensure dominant land force capability for Soldiers, the United States, and our Allies. The AMC mission supports the Army G-4 Focus Area to Connect Army Logisticians; to modernize theater distribution; to improve force reception; and to integrate the supply chain. Headquartered at Fort Belvoir, VA, the AMC mission is accomplished through Life Cycle Management Commands, Major Subordinate Commands, and other organizations that direct the work of Army depots, arsenals, ammunition plants, laboratories, procurement operations, and AMC-deployed personnel.

Support is also provided to HQDA, PEO/PM, and, via contracts, to vendors worldwide. There are more than 61,000 dedicated AMC military and civilian personnel who work at 149 locations worldwide, including 36 states and 55 countries.

The transportation mission includes directing and coordinating use of Department of Defense organic air and sealift, contracting vendors and commercial transportation companies to move materiel to and from units, depots, and forward repair activities world-wide. In addition, AMC has a Department of the Army charter for Army cargo-related transportation policy and procedures.

AMC is directly supporting Operations Enduring Freedom and Iraqi Freedom

(OEF/OIF) both in the theater of operations and in CONUS. The transportation policy and procedures are formalized in Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Federal and Defense Acquisition Regulations (F/DAR), DOD Directives and Memorandums, Joint DOD Component Regulations, Department of Army and Army Materiel Command Regulations, and formal agreements. All of this requires routine contact with the AMC community of transporters at the Life Cycle Management Commands, Major Subordinate Commands, the Logistics Support Activity, the Army Staff, Army Commands (ACOMs), DLA, USTRANSCOM, Defense Contract Management Agency, and the Military Surface Deployment and Distribution Command (SDDC).

AMC transporters forecast requirements and defend, justify, budget, allocate, enforce, and verify resources to move weapon systems and supplies to and from Soldiers worldwide.

he G-4, like the rest of the Army staff, is a policy- and programbased organization. That is, we help execute Title 10 support to the Army—we plan, we program for resources, and we set Army-wide logistics policy. While we of course pay close attention to what is going on in the here and now, we must also be thinking about the future, anticipating what will be required, and trying to ensure that we are ready for any possibility.

Sustaining our Army, especially in these times of persistent conflict, is a huge challenge. We are always looking for ways to do it better, faster, less expensively, always with a focus on ensuring that our Commanders have what they need when they need it. We in the G-4 want to make sure everything we do helps sustain America’s Army—the strength of the Nation.

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, and the National Emergency Training Center in Emmitsburg, MD. Often FEMA works in partnership with other organizations that are part of the nation’s emergency management system. These partners include state and local emergency management agencies, 27 federal agencies, and the American Red Cross.

CHECK ONLINE The National Response Framework (replaces the National Response Plan) Guiding principles that enable all response partners to prepare for and provide a unified national response to disasters and emergencies. It establishes a comprehensive, national, all-hazards approach to domestic incident response, and it: • describes how communities, tribes, states, the federal government, private-sectors, and nongovernmental partners work together to coordinate national response; • describes specific authorities and best practices for managing incidents; and • builds upon the National Incident Management System (NIMS), which provides a consistent template for managing incidents.

T

he United States Coast Guard (USCG) is a military, multimission, maritime service within the DHS and one of the nation’s five armed services. Its core roles are to protect the public, the environment, and US economic and security interests in any maritime region in which those interests may be at risk, including international waters and America’s coasts, ports, and inland waterways. The Coast Guard provides unique benefits to the nation because of its distinctive blend of military, humanitarian, and civilian law-enforcement capabilities. To serve the public, the Coast Guard has five fundamental roles: • • • • •

Maritime Safety Maritime Security Maritime Mobility National Defense Protection of Natural Resources

USCG Engineering and Logistics (CG-4)

RAML Thomas P. Ostebo (CG-4) Assistant Commandant for Engineering & Logistics (CG-4)

T

he Engineering and Logistics Directorate (CG-4) develops, deploys, and maintains the resources necessary to sustain the capabilities to meet operational requirements that support the Coast Guard’s five fundamental roles: Maritime Safety, Maritime Security, Maritime Mobility, National Defense, and Protection of Natural Resources. To do this, our professionals are responsible for engineering and logistics throughout the Coast Guard.

The Engineering and Logistics Directorate provides technical, logistics, and engineering support for all Coat Guard operating programs (ie, Search and

Department of Homeland Security (DHS) | TSA | FEMA | USCG Rescue, environmental, etc.). This includes performing or assisting in planning, design, construction, acquisition, renovation, maintenance, outfitting, and alteration of cutters, boats, aircraft, motor vehicles, and aids to navigation and shore facilities. Engineering, logistics, and maintenance responsibilities also include complete life-cycle support, installation, operations, maintenance, and ultimately replacement.

CG-4 is a diverse organization consisting of military and civilian members from many different backgrounds and disciplines. The Engineering and Logistics Directorate has managers, engineers, environmental specialists, scientists, logisticians, technicians, and Information Technology specialists— all vital to our ability to do our job.

From the Assistant Commandant for Engineering and Logistics to the field technician repairing a piece of mission critical equipment, the Engineering and Logistics organization performs as a vital asset that enables the Coast Guard to attain its strategic and performance goals.

Our Mission To develop and support the Systems which enable the men and women of the Coast Guard to be Semper Paratus . . . today and tomorrow.

Our Vision The Engineering and Logistics Team . . . provides effective, affordable, capability for our customers, now and into the future.

Modernization of CG-4 For the first time in history, all of the Coast Guard’s global mission support structure will be aligned into one organization under what will become the Deputy Commandant for Mission Support (DCMS) upon Congressional authorization.

DCMS will unify four Headquarters directorates, including Personnel (CG1), Engineering and Logistics (CG-4), Chief Information Officer (CG-6), and Acquisition (CG-9), into five efficient mission support logistics and ser-

vice centers to form the organizational structure to carry out the standardized Coast Guard Logistics Business Model.

The three new logistics centers will report to CG-4, which will work closely with the new Asset Project Office (APO) to enroll new assets.

The APO is responsible for enrolling new assets into the new product line support model. It will support the acquisition and life cycle management and the development and implementation of integrated logistical support for all legacy and newly acquired assets to ensure cross-programmatic standardization.

The APO will work closely with the Aviation; Naval; Civil; Personnel; and Command, Control, Communications, Computing, and IT programs to vastly improve the Coast Guard’s ability to deliver operational capability within established economic and schedule constraints.

G

Logistics Centers • Surface Forces Logistics Center (SFLC): The SFLC provides the surface fleet (eg, ice breakers, cutters, and boats) with depot level maintenance, engineering, supply, logistics, and information services.

• Shore Infrastructure Logistics Center (SILC): The SILC is responsible for all shore infrastructure and applying configuration standards to acquire, maintain, alter, refurbish, and dispose of shore facilities to provide Base Operating and Support Services (BOSS) for Coast Guard units.

• Aviation Logistics Center (ALC): The ALC provides the aviation community with depot level maintenance, engineering, supply, logistics, and information services. DTJ

SA, a centralized procurement and property management agency for the federal government, manages more than one-fourth of the government’s total procurement dollars and influences the management of $500 billion in federal assets, including 8300 government-owned or leased buildings and 205,000 vehicles. GSA also acts as steward to more than 420 historic properties and manages USA.gov, the official portal. GSA’s mission to provide superior workplaces, expert technology solutions, acquisition services, purchasing and EGov travel solutions, and management policies, at best value, allows federal agencies to focus on their core missions.

The Federal Acquisition Service (FAS), created in 2007 by consolidating the Federal Technology Service (FTS) and the Federal Supply Service (FSS), 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

46 | Defense Transportation Journal |

April 2009

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.

GSA’s E-Gov Travel Service (ETS) is a Government-wide, web-based service that applies world-class travel management practices to consolidate and aggregate Federal travel. ETS is commercially hosted to minimize technology costs to the Government and to guarantee refreshed functionality. This end-to-end service streamlines travel management and enables the Government to embed real time visibility into the travel choices so that agencies can optimize their travel budgets. ETS is used by executive branch agencies that are subject to the Federal Travel Regulation (FTR). Visit www.gsa.gov/ egovtravel for more information. GSA accommodates Lodging Needs for Federal travelers, at home and abroad.

• Transient Lodging – the FedRooms program provides more than 5000 quality hotels worldwide, all approved by the Federal Emergency Management Agency. Rates are at

or below per diem, travelers can cancel up to 4pm the day of arrival without penalty, there are no hidden costs, and there is no charge for early check-out. For these benefits, you must ask for the FedRooms rate by name or by booking through a travel management service.

• Emergency Lodging – temporary lodging accommodations in support of emergency relief that can be used by all Government agencies.

• Corporate Housing – lodging accommodations for 30-plus days, including temporary or permanent employee relocation, extended training, and travel.

• Conference, Events, and Tradeshow Planning Services – includes the management of all necessary meeting arrangements. For more information, visit www.gsa.gov/lodging.

GSA has developed an extremely successful Airline City Pair Program. This service originally covered only 11 markets, but over the last 28 years, it has expanded to more than 5000 city pairs.

The airfares offered under this program are discounted considerably off comparable commercial fares—saving the federal government billions of dollars annually.

In addition to the tremendous price savings, the Airline City Pair Program has many features that allow government travelers all the flexibility possible in planning official travel. The benefits of this service include: • Fares priced on one-way routes permitting agencies to plan multiple destinations • No advance purchase required • No minimum or maximum length stay required • Tickets fully refundable • Last seat availability • No blackout periods • Stable prices enabling travel budgeting • Dual fares availability For Airline City Pair contract airfares, visit www.gsa.gov/citypairsearch.

During the 1980s and early 1990s, IBM was thrown into turmoil by back-to-back revolutions. The PC revolution placed computers directly in the hands of millions of people. Then, the client/server revolution sought to link all of those PCs (the “clients”) with larger computers that labored in the background. Both revolutions transformed the way customers viewed, used, and bought technology. And both fundamentally rocked IBM. As the decade drew to a close, IBM stood on the threshold of the new century having reestablished itself as a leading information technology innovator. Its leadership helped create the e-business revolution. It had successfully transformed itself, achieving an impressive business turnaround. IBM helped pioneer information technology over the years and it stands today at the forefront of a worldwide industry that is revolutionizing the way in which enterprises, organizations, and people operate and thrive.

Supply Chain

Although IBM got its start as a computer hardware and software maker, today it ranks as the world’s largest supply chain consulting organization and technology firm, with more than 60,000 professionals and the world’s fourth largest supply chain.

Global Operations

In the Public Sector, IBM offers a variety of capabilities, bringing global operations supporting Business Solutions, Business Consulting, Technology Services, and Innovation to bear on our clients’ problems. IBM spends more than $6 billion in scientific research and earned 3125 US patents in 2007, committing several innovative, environmentally responsible patents to the public domain. Our IBM Center for the Business of Government and Institute for Electronic Government (IEG) are only the beginning of IBM’s commitment to our Government and the Department of Defense.

Government Commitment

Agencies face many obstacles to innovation, including internal politics, limited resources, and external forces. To overcome these challenges, government leaders are pursuing private sector approaches—soliciting greater citizen involvement and collaboration with key stakeholders.

Read the IBM Center for the Business of Government study: Market-based government through innovation, found at http://www-03.ibm.com/industries/government/index.jsp.

Tomorrow/Today

Bringing state-of-the-art capabilities in areas such as Network Centric Operations, Service Oriented Architectures, Public Safety and Homeland Security, Social Services, Finance and Administration, and Enterprise Portfolio Management, IBM provides all US Government, State, and Local Governments with innovative, cost efficient solutions to a myriad of problems. IBM is firmly anchored in corporate citizenship as well, assisting communities around the globe on a daily basis. Whether it is providing support to victims of natural disasters and the humanitarian responders around the globe or contributing critical technology to our fighting forces, IBM is recognized as a global corporate citizen.

Annual Transportation Corps (TC) Conference Fort Eustis, VA July 29–August 1, 2009 Hosted by the Army’s Chief of Transportation Brigadier General Brian R. Layer

The theme for this year’s celebration is “The Transportation NCO: Backbone of the Corps.” Our methods in support of this theme will be twofold—first honoring the Transportation Corps’ roots and secondly preparing for the future. One special group of individuals to be recognized during this week is the Military Railway Service (MRS) veterans of World War II and Korea. During WWII, more than 43,500 Soldier-railroaders served in more than 50 commercial railroad-sponsored MRS units stationed in theaters around the world, providing logistical support to combat operations.

These individuals realized their accomplishments with a combination of hard work, technical competence, and a love of their country.

Most TC Conference events will be open to the public. A special invitation, though, is extended to post Korean-era Soldiers who served in MRS units and also to those Soldiers currently serving in Active and Reserve military railway units to come join in the celebration. MRS veterans of WWII and/or Korea desiring to participate in TC Conference activities, please contact Mr. Mark Metz, LTC-USAR (Ret), at m-m-e@comcast.net or 717-597-2636. Other individuals desiring to attend TC Conference activities should go to the Fort Eustis website at www.eustis.army.mil at the end of May 2009 and fill out the registration form.

2009 TechNet Mid-America “Building Efficient Infrastructures for Today’s Joint Environment”

Conference & Expo > July 28 – 29, 2009 Gateway Convention Center > Collinsville, IL www.technetmidamerica.org/9TN Sponsors: NDTA Scott-St. Louis Chapter and AFCEA Scott-St. Louis Chapter TechNet Mid-America is an annual event sponsored by Scott-St. Louis Chapters of the NDTA and the Armed Forces Communications and Electronics Association. This year’s conference supports the DOD’s focus on continuous improvement and developing greater efficiencies. After many years of deployment, sustainment, redeployment, cyber, and IT operations with the Warfighter throughout the world, and most recently in Southwest Asia, we must continue to improve our IT and Logistics support to be effective. The objective of this conference is to look at what we have learned and how we can better apply ourselves to the pressing missions at hand, in a time of resource constraints. We will look for opportunities to build greater efficiencies in our Joint environment by discussing what we can do today with leading edge technologies while improving processes, networks, and infrastructures which result in lower costs and smarter ways of doing business—increasing our partnerships across the DOD and with industry. TechNet Mid-America 2009 will showcase more than 80 IT and Logistics exhibitors, including information-filled professional development seminars.

The conference will also host two keynote breakfasts and two keynote luncheons.

COL Denny Edwards, USA (Ret.) This month’s issue of the DTJ marks the beginning of a new focus for this column. Since the start of the Pages Past feature back in 1994, our purpose has been to reflect on the history and important events in NDTA’s past. In 1994 we celebrated the Association’s 50th Anniversary—and it was thought appropriate to extract key issues from Journals dating all the way back to 1945 to tell NDTA’s story.

Now, 15 years later Pages Past is morphing into Pages Future, and we will concentrate on the road ahead. To make this transition, the material below pulls from important past NDTA history, which has just recently become very much current history.

I’m referring to the plight of the SS United States passenger liner, and what may be it’s ultimate future.

NEWS FLASH!

As we go to press, the DTJ has learned that the ship’s owner Star Cruises (parent company of Norwegian Cruise Lines) is seeking to sell the ship but under terms that it will only be sold to a US buyer and will not be sold for scrap.

T

he DTJ first reported on the SS United States back in the early 50s as she was being built to become the fastest passenger liner afloat—a record she still holds today. So spectacular was designer William Francis Gibbs’ superliner that he became one of NDTA’s very first recipients of the then-new National Transportation Award. It was a proud moment for the United States, our maritime industry, and the US Navy, because of many defense capabilities built into the new ship.

For example: she could be readily converted into a troop ship that could carry 15,000 soldiers more than 10,000 miles without refueling.

Retired from service prematurely after only seventeen years of service because of increased competition from the new trans-Atlantic jet planes, the great US Flagship has sat idle for nearly 40 years as different proposals for her use or conversion have advanced and failed. Then, in a glimmer of hope, Norwegian Cruise Lines purchased the liner with possible plans to put her back in service as a cruise ship. But that was not to happen, and in these tough economic times it looks like this grand vessel is now in grave danger and may be facing the ignoble fate of going to the breakers to be sold for scrap!

Two groups fighting to save the ship, the SS United States Conservancy (www.ssunitedstatesconservancy.org) and the SS United States Foundation (www.ssunitedstates. org), have learned that Norwegian Cruise Lines has put the ship up for sale. NDTA members and others with an interest in saving the SS United States may contact the web site above for more information. DTJ

Human Capital:

Protecting Critical Manufacturing and the Defense Industrial Base with SRP—Secured, Resilient, Prepared

By Mr. Irv Varkonyi, American Public University/American Military University

Manufacturing Sector Specific Agency (SSA). This SSA joined sixteen other SSA’s including the Defense Industrial Base Critical Sector. The two SSAs are obviously interrelated as the security of the nation depends on our ability to produce the goods to support warfighters, Federal, state, and local homeland security, and the commercial sector to sustain itself.

The Critical Manufacturing SSA was formed last year:

Learning Objectives • Understand the importance of the Critical Manufacturing Sector Specific Agency and its relation to the Defense Industrial Base • Identify stakeholders including shareholders, management, employees, customers and suppliers • Recognize the value of Human Capital via education and training to secure Critical Manufacturing • Understand Secure, Resilient, and Prepared (SRP)

“The Critical Manufacturing Sector is crucial to the economic prosperity . . . and the continuity of the US. United States manufacturers design, produce, and distribute products that provide more than one of every eight dollars of the US gross domestic product and priorities . . . and employ more than 10 percent of the Nation’s workforce. The (lack of) protection of the sector from a direct attack on or disruption of certain elements of the industry could disrupt essential functions at the national level and across multiple other Critical Infrastructure sectors.”

(DHS, 3 March 2008, http://www.dhs. gov/xlibrary/assets/nipp_snapshot_criticalmanufacturing.pdf)

T

he nation has met the harsh challenges of protecting our national security, weakened by the tragedies of terrorism, natural disasters, and low priorities of infrastructure protection by an immense response at all levels of Government and the commercial sector. This response called on its citizens, whether they are the President of the United States, a night watchman at a semi-conductor factory, or a university professor of supply chain management to not only exert maximum effort to protect each other but also recognize the value of human capital to detect, plan for, mitigate, respond, and recover from disasters.

Such action can make the difference in protecting our Defense Industrial Base, the loss of which, or severe weakening, would compound our weakness in maintaining national security.

Educating and training Human Capital will be the responsibility of the enterprises who employ us; of the universities who teach us rational reasoning and acquisition of knowledge; of professional associations such as the National Defense Transportation Association through their educational activities; and most importantly each of us to learn and continuously improve our knowledge in a rapidly changing world.

Among recent developments at the Department of Homeland Security in support of protecting critical infrastructure has been the formation of the Critical 120 |

Defense Transportation Journal

|

It is undeniable that the loss of key manufacturers in industries such as transportation equipment, automotive, electricals, primary metals, and more will severely impact the security of the nation. How well do stakeholders understand these relationships? More important, how do stakeholders learn to collaborate to be Secure, Resilient, and Prepared (SRP)? The answer lies clearly in the ability to train, educate, and motivate human capital.

Who are the stakeholders?

1. Shareholders – Ownership in publicly traded enterprises is the engine of growth for the nation. Disruptions of a minor or major degree will reduce, if not destroy, the value of owners’ shares. How are shareholders educated to be SRP? 2. Management – Management fulfills shareholders responsibilities to produce a

april 2009

designated return on investment (ROI).

Implicit in achieving a desired ROI is the preservation of the enterprise’s assets both physical and human. How is management educated to be SRP? 3. Employees – Employees earn a living at an enterprise to support their families and their communities. In their contracts with management, they agree to produce expected results. The failure to produce results due to the loss of production through intentional or unintentional events reduces the value of the enterprise.

How are employees educated to be SRP? 4. Customers – Customers determine the value of the enterprise by the money they spend to purchase its products or services. Customers value certainty and consistency of such products and services. How are customers educated to value SRP? 5. Suppliers and infrastructure support – Firms that supply services to the enterprise as well as those that provide infrastructure support affect the output of the enterprise by the resources they provide or fail to provide. How are suppliers and those who provide infrastructure support (including government) educated to be SRP? Our space is not sufficient to provide the level of detail needed to respond to these questions, but we can focus in on the value of educating human capital as follows: 1. Risk has multiple components: a. Risk process describes the steps you need to take to identify, monitor, and control risk . . . defined as any future event that may prevent you from meeting your team goals. b. Risk control involves measurement, prevention, contingency planning, and mitigation of the impact of disruptive events.

2. Security is a condition that results from the establishment and maintenance of protective measures.

3. Resilience builds on security by developing processes that guarantee the full security of assets.

www.ndtahq.com | 121

4. Sustainable operations meet the needs of the present without compromising the ability of the enterprise, and of future generations, to meet their own needs.

5. Global economic risk will impact risk, security, resiliency, and sustainable.

Risk Management has been understood in the past to be limited in scope in large part due to the natural protection of borders, lack of information sharing, and low dependence on entities outside of the enterprise. Though tragic in the loss of human life, enterprises were hardly affected if there was a natural disaster halfway around the world if they did not depend on that part of the world. As noted by Tom Friedman in “The World is Flat,” we now have greater prosperity based on the ability of information, people, and resources to flow effortlessly in a world seemingly without borders or obstacles. This prosperity has also brought great risk, for now continuity of operations may depend on importing key components from points halfway around the world. Or consider the risk of a manufacturing process de-

pendent on 99.9% on-time movement through congested sea ports and highways. Without risk, there is no reward, but equally important, is that global risk has potential for global failures.

Thus the Critical Manufacturing SSA must balance the prosperity of the nation with securing the nation against failures that may still occur despite our best efforts to prevent them. Do the stakeholders understand this proposition? Do customers value the certainty of receiving their items at the right price, in the right condition, at the right time . . . without disruption?

How do we recognize the value of Human Capital in this process? How do we value the importance of educating and training Human Capital in SRP? 1. Acquire tools through education and training that blend On the Job training with newly acquired knowledge.

2. Understand the convergence of Security, Resilience, and Sustainability in the global enterprise.

3. Understand trade offs that must be made when we optimize the opera-

april 2009

tional performance while we minimize operational vulnerability.

4. Understand the balance among operations and security professionals through education and common foundational knowledge.

When it’s time to cut budgets, which these days appears to be more popular than Mom’s apple pie, consider preservation, even expansion, of funds for professional development, the process that educates and trains human capital. Not recognizing the value of human capital will work against SRP. DTJ Irvin Varkonyi, Marketing Manager Transportation and Logistics, Adjunct Professor, American Military University ivarkonyi@apus.edu Look for new professional development sessions at upcoming NDTA national and regional forums that focus on efficient and sustainable Joint Deployment and Distribution Enterprise.

infrastructure will provide a significant number of jobs and serve as an economic stimulus. Improving our infrastructure will lead to increased productivity, and increased productivity supports a growing economy, which should lead to the growth and establishment of our industrial base.

We Must Seize the Opportunity—A New Vision is Needed! Although the timing is right and the “stars are aligned,” it is critical that we learn from our mistakes of the past. We must develop a “vision for the future.” New sources of revenue must be found to finance our highways and transportation infrastructure. Our new transportation infrastructure must be intelligent, interoperable, and innovative in design. Our transportation system must be intermodal, utilize technology applications that promote seamless transportation, and at the same time support the security of our Nation’s transportation system. As General Wykle stated, “We should start by developing a national framework for infrastructure renewal while simultaneously funding specific infrastructure projects.” We need to follow the President’s lead. “The time has come to usher in a new era—a new era of responsibility in which we act not only to save and create new jobs, but also to lay a new foundation of growth upon which we can renew the promise of America.”3 The time has come, and the time is now! In my next article, I will focus on what such a national framework should look like. DTJ

Corporate membership dues are modest, and the potential rewards are great!

The key to a successful NDTA experience is participation. Leverage all of the opportunities provided by the Association. You will question the value of your investment in NDTA if you pay your dues and sit back and wait for “things to happen;” however, you will reap the rewards of your investment if you become actively involved.

Start by promoting your brand through written articles in the DTJ or NDTA Gram, provide press releases for publication in our newsletter or on our website, succinctly describe your capabilities in the Almanac edition of the DTJ, participate in local chapter events, speak locally, and build or expand your network. Follow these actions by attending and participating in committee meetings (this is where actions are worked, where your voice is most influential, and where networking among your peers is strengthen). Next, expand to national level events—exhibit and sponsor at the SDDC Training Symposium and the annual forum. Volunteer to participate on a panel or in a breakout session, seek speaking opportunities, network with the senior decision makers during the conferences, and leverage every opportunity to lend your voice to the discussion of the issues/topics.
