What is the DOD Logistics Frameworks for Defense course about?

You're responsible for delivering logistics plans that meet strict DoD compliance and mission timelines. Yet, last-minute changes, cross-functional dependencies, and shifting threat assessments often force rework, pulling you into cycles of validation and escalation. The result is bandwidth loss and missed opportunities to lead beyond your current lane.
