Wanted to let the life cycle logistics and product support manager community know well in advance about a most interesting DAU Webcast coming up next week entitled “Mastering Chaos: The Acquirer as Operator”.

Permit me to share one of the more intriguing overviews of a webcast: I’ve seen: “Defense acquisition, always a tough job, is getting tougher. Is the defense acquirer's job a "no-win" situation? It depends…If we approach the challenge as "process administrators", who are constrained by perceived process limits, we are in for an unrewarding, unfulfilling ride. If we approach the challenge as "outcome operators" - striving to under­stand our chaotic operational environment, and acting on opportunities that come from that understanding—we can achieve results beyond our most positive expectations.”

Interested? Then plan to join us next Wednesday June 10 from 12:30-2:00 pm EDT for this no-cost professional development opportunity.
