About Performance Based Lifecycle Support 2012

This year’s PBLCS conference is aimed at revitalizing the “PBL” concept. The military is facing budget cuts anywhere from $450B – almost $1T meaning the time has come to choose between a contracting method that forces private industry to perform within a set of predetermined metrics with rewards built in, or based on transactions a set pricing regardless of performance. This event will feature workshops that will educate and broaden program staff and answer the riddle, if not “PBL”, then what?

Why Attend a WBR Conference?

The WBR live conferencing model will allow you to build your network of peers who have similar challenges and exchange knowledge and best practices for meeting those challenges. Each conference day includes high-level strategic briefings from public and private leadership as well as operational-level case studies of programs and initiatives that have been successfully implemented in other Defense and Federal offices.
