# DLA to undergo DOD quadrennial review

By Beth Reece

                FORT BELVOIR, Va.  –              
A Defense Department-led review will assess whether the Defense Logistics Agency meets its chartered mission efficiently and effectively.

Title 10 of the U.S. Code requires such reviews be done every four years. The assessment will be conducted by DOD’s Office of the Director of Administration and Management with assistance from the recently formed Defense Management Institute.

DLA, ODA&M and DMI are developing the terms of reference, which will outline the review process and objectives. Focus areas are still being determined but may include contingency demand planning, depot-level reparables and warehouse utilization.

DLA Transformation will oversee the agency’s participation with some offices throughout DLA being asked to provide resources to fulfill requests for information and data, according to a June 26 memo from DLA Vice Director Brad Bunn announcing the review to senior leaders. A call for resources is expected soon, he added.

“I expect DLA leaders to get personally involved in all aspects of the review,” Bunn said. “As a professional organization, we will be honest, transparent, cooperative, and timely in our replies and requests for data.”

Overarching objectives of the review include looking for overlap of missions within DOD and identifying DLA contributions to the National Defense Strategy. The review will also measure organizational health and performance, as well as assess the agency’s contributions to DOD human resources business operations.

Bunn stressed in his memo that reviews aren’t new to DLA.

“As leaders, we welcome views of others in our quest for continuous improvement and to provide better support for the warfighter,” he said.
