The PBL, Maintenance & Sustainment Day

This day focuses on how PBL is delivering dramatic improvements in performance with lower operating costs across the total life cycle. It also focuses on how to effectively integrate PBL into future acquisition and sustainment governance processes.

 

PBL is all about leveraging the best capabilities of the public and private sectors to achieve better Warfighter performance outcomes; and at a lower cost.

 

Attendees of the PBL day will examine how to design a strategy that will optimize a system's performance for the Warfighter. We’ll document examples of how to increase a system's readiness, while minimizing its logistics footprint, and reducing its life cycle cost.
