Dear Colleague,

It is with great pleasure that I invite you to participate in The Defence Logistics Central and Eastern Europe conference taking place between the 7th and 8th of March 2017 in Prague in the Czech Republic.

As NATO increases its military presence in the Central and Eastern European region, there needs to be a solid support base in the form of strong logistics capabilities. Deployed troops and host nation forces need to be able to work together and fulfi l specifi c combat service support missions with niche capabilities from logistics C2, fuel support and heavy-lift capacity. As such, the key requirements and priorities for a military’s logistics capability need to be addressed.

There is therefore a need for a high level meeting that brings together senior military leadership, project decision makers and subject matter experts, alongside contractors and cutting edge industry solution providers to share insights into this crucial topic that will enhance the levels of cooperation in supporting collective defence efforts in the Central and Eastern European area. I believe Defence Logistics Central and Eastern Europe is the perfect environment for this collaboration, hence lending my support behind it as chairman.

I would ask you to pay particular attention to your conference agenda which has been put together with great care to give you the very best opportunity to benchmark and learn from subject matter experts relating to nation specifi c logistics capabilities. Only through learning and networking with our peers can we enhance and improve our ideas and execution of military projects. Join us in March 2017 with many other likeminded individuals to ensure you too can benefi t from this unique forum.

Yours Sincerely,

Workshop Overview:Nations in the Central and Eastern European region are going through an intensive phase of modernisation to meet NATO standards and transform equipment support. Acquiring, maintaining and supplying the equipment needs to be managed effectively in order to provide the best quality service to support the military community. In order to improve the supply and sustainment of modern forces new ways of managing fl eets and stockpiles of military inventory need to be implemented, technology and innovation embraced and industry best practice harnessed to underpin military capability in the most effective and effi cient manner.

Drawing on his extensive experience in support chain management, Brigadier (Retd) Mark Dunn will guide you through how to enhance support chain management to deliver the best resources for armed forces in the region and will explore innovative solutions to the biggest challenges in managing the supply chain.

About the Workshop Leader:Mark brings 38 years Army career experience to the Defence and Security team in PA Consulting. He has held senior leadership and management posts on high tempo operations, support chain and logistics, international collaboration, transformation

and change. As a member of a wide range of executive boards, he has a record of achievement in leadership and direction, strategic planning, cost reduction programmes and talent management.
