Visit to the Defence Fulfilment Centre
On 12 Feb Leidos and Kuehne & Nagel hosted RLC Connect at MOD Donnington. Our industry and military delegates were briefed on the Defence Supply Chain and the major improvements of recent, mainly due to technological advances and infrastructure improvements.
We had a tour of the Defence Fulfilment Centre (DFC) which showcased the upgrades to legacy infrastructure, whilst exploiting the Control Tower to find the most cost efficient distribution solutions on a global scale. We were briefed on the what the future may offer – Far Bank (for example re-establishing forward storage for Defence stores). This visit gave our logisticians an understanding of the scale, challenges and a wider understanding of the MOD E2E supply chain and how Team Leidos plays a part in it. This was a very successful and outstanding day for all 48 delegates who attended.
RLC Connect are most grateful to Leidos and Kuehne & Nagel who made our visit a memorable experience.
