Reengineering The Air Travel Process by Christopher A Pike, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

Every year, Department of Defense (DOD) travelers make thousands of trips that include air transportation. The vast majority of travelers use commercial air for their travel, even when there may be military air options available at greatly reduced cost to the taxpayer. The current process for arranging passenger travel does not allow for or encourage the use of these organic options because the visibility over them does not exist at the base Traffic Management Officer's level. This paper will recommend a reengineering effort that will provide travelers with a consolidated list of all travel options, with the ultimate aim of reducing travel costs. The reengineering will be modeled after the process currently used at the Joint Movement Control Group (U. S. Transportation Command), and will rely upon the Global Transportation Network as its centerpiece. The paper will explore the feasibility and costs associated with this concept. It will further explore and suggest strategies for encouraging commanders to actively support the program. | Reengineering The Air Travel Process by Christopher A Pike, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
