Modernizing the Army’s Industrial Base with General Edward Daly, Army Materiel Command

Please join BENS for a luncheon discussion with Gen. Edward M. Daly, USA, Commanding General of Army Materiel Command, at the Harvard Club for a conversation on the Department’s largest modernization project in more than four decades.

The Army is investing $16 billion over 15 years in its organic industrial base, bolstering its internal capability to manufacture and resulting in major upgrades to 23 depots, arsenals and ammunition plants across the United States. As he embarks on this project, Gen. Daly looks forward to discussing modernizing processes, equipment, and workforce, as well as the information technology behind data and cyber systems. He is particularly interested in how corporations and other civilian organizations – such as the manufacturing industry, logistics fields, and supply chain management — have navigated modernizing facilities and information technology systems.
