The logistic system concept and foreign military sales, U.S. Navy - Royal Norwegian Navy.
Abstract
A conceptual framework for a logistic system is
developed. The functional activities within the logistic
system, their relationship to each other, and how they
should be managed is described.
The existing organization for Foreign Military Sales
(FMS) in the Royal Norwegian Navy and the U.S. Navy is
identified, including an example of a typical FMS
transaction.
An evaluation of the FMS system is made, partly based
on the conceptual model of a logistic system developed
earlier. The evaluation is also based on gathered information
and the author's personal experience with FMS.
It is concluded that there is a good fit between the
existing FMS organization and the theoretical logistical
model. Areas of special concern are identified to be order
processing, communications, transportation and training of
individuals in the customer's FMS organization.
