Description
The IA-IL Chapter of the National Defense Industrial Association (NDIA) is hosting the 13th Annual Midwest Government Contracting Symposium. After a hiatus in 2020 and 2021, due to COVID, we are reinitiating our annual event with the continued focus on linking you to valuable sources of information and opportunities. Recent world events (COVID 19, state sponsored Cyber-attacks and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine) have exposed unique challenges to the US Organic Industrial Base, Supply Chain, and the ability to conduct secure communication/Mission Command even in the Homeland. The US Army is constantly trying to keep pace with an evolving adversary and emerging threats in all domains, which creates challenges in the combat environment with the ability to build readiness of our forces and maintain effective mission command. Key to sustaining overmatch and building readiness is to innovate at the speed of need. Come listen to how the Army is innovating and exploiting emerging technology to sustain the OIB, Supply Chain and Mission Command on the digital battlefield through data-driven decisions and investments that enable to sustain advantage in Multidomain Operations. As the US Army introduces its new doctrine - Multidomain Operations - this fall, where the Continental United States is now the staging base, what are the implications on US Organic Industrial Base, Supply Chain, and ability to conduct Mission Command. NDIA will sponsor a two-day conference in Moline, IL where we will bring the Army leadership to examine the recent world current events and how Army’s new Multidomain Operations Doctrine will sustain the US Organic Industry Base, Supply Chain and Mission Command.
