ResearchThe Institute for Defense and Business (IDB) conducts both applied and basic research tosupport its portfolio of educational programs and specific research projects. As an

acknowledged leader at the vanguard of transformational business practices in both the DoD

and private sector, IDB has been asked to conduct a variety of research projects involving

clients ranging from the Directorate of Logistics, J4 of the Joint Staff to private sector firms

providing humanitarian relief in conflict zones.

The research effort for LOGTECH is a dynamic program that is updated annually. In the first

year of LOGTECH, a series of case studies were prepared examining a range of business

management and organizational transformation issues. Research for years two and three of

LOGTECH focused on five transformational themes indentified as critical by LOGTECH Subject

Matter Experts Board members. These themes included Footprint Reduction Through Fuel

Efficiency, Product Life Cycle Management for Design and Maintenance, Technology

Deployment for Total Asset Visibility, Security in Logistics Communications and Outsourcing

Logistics.

These complimentary research efforts guided curriculum development for the executive

education programs and other LOGTECH programmatic activities. Ongoing research and case

study development remain critical in shaping the content of LOGTECH offerings as well as

that of IDBs other programs.
