Benefits abound 👍 The Troop Support division of the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA), a combat support agency in the U.S. Department of Defense, is becoming increasingly aware of the benefits of employing Blockchain to aid in increasing visibility and information synchronicity. 👀 According to the deputy director of DLA's Construction and Equipment unit, the DLA believes that blockchain can speed up the process of ordering raw materials from manufacturers, and ultimately getting it delivered to its destination, thereby delivering emergency supplies in a drastically reduced time frame. It also recently held a meeting in Philadelphia to understand how #blockchain could have improved its efforts in assisting in Puerto Rico after the devastating Hurricane Maria in 2017, as part of its effort to seek how blockchain can be integrated into existing processes. 👌🏻 Additionally, the Troop Support’s Continuous Process Improvement (CPI) office has teamed up with global shipping company @maersk to set in place a supply chain platform integrated with blockchain technology. 😲 Photo swooping on to pick & deliver logistics support on HH.60G PaveHawk on isolated villages courtesy of @usairforce post #tsunami2004 Emergency Response Team west coast of Sumatera #ibufoundation #usaf #rakataadventure #heli #blackhawk #pavehawk #chopper #instaaviation #defenselogisticsagency #emergencyresponse #hwg #humanitarian #calang https://www.instagram.com/p/Br8Dxb1h0No/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ppyrefuvnzs7
