Corporate Membership

Corporate Members

Corporate membership provides the opportunity for companies to get to know the Army logistics community better and to gain insights into military leadership and culture and perhaps, understand some of the acronym-rich language better! It also provides the opportunity to make a visible and practical contribution to improve military logistics through joint thought leadership development, sharing experiences and lessons identified from operations. It offers the opportunity to build long-term relationships with Army logisticians throughout the rank range and across all RLC trades and to gain better insight and understanding of how the Army goes about solving logistics problems and how it looks to industry to leverage its capabilities. Also, there is the opportunity to share knowledge across the logistics community of interest.

Military logistics capability relies on strong military-commercial relationships and will do so increasingly into the future. By joining RLC Connect you will have the opportunity to forge connections with the RLC’s greatest asset, its people, who have undergone extensive leadership training and who may prompt you to think differently about aspects of your own business.
