LMI has won a 5-year contract worth nearly $12 million with the U.S. Transportation Command Strategic Plans, Policy, and Logistics Directorate to help with strategic campaign planning.
The contract includes support for the Defense Department’s Functional Campaign Plan for Global Deployment and Distribution and USTRANSCOM’s Combatant Command Campaign Plan. LMI will facilitate campaign planning efforts through multimodal distribution, transportation and logistics planning subject matter expertise.
“LMI is committed to supporting USTRANSCOM in enhancing the JDDE,” said Jon Baba, senior vice president of LMI’s defense market. “Developing and maintaining a premier campaign planning program enhances strategic readiness and equips DOD to win the fight in an increasingly uncertain future.”
The DOD FCP-GDD operationalizes USTRANSCOM’s strategy for Joint Deployment and Distribution partners and addresses challenges with global GDD, while the CCP operationalizes this strategy for USTRANSCOM and its component commands.
The LMI team will support assessing each campaign plan and its associated strategy while reducing or eliminating shortfalls in strategic planning. Tasks include authoring, editing and guiding assessment efforts as well as recommending changes to strategic guidance, joint publications, USTRANCOM’s CCP, DOD’s FCP-GDD and the five supporting global campaign plans.
LMI has supported campaign planning and capability development for USTRANSCOM since 2015. As the Joint Force refines its global integration efforts, LMI will further assist USTRANSCOM in equipping JDDE to offer global air, land and sea transportation options for DOD by developing campaign planning efforts.
This support will improve assessment methods and processes to better position USTRANSCOM and DOD for future operational requirements across the globe, the company said.
