Strategic mobility is crucial to our capability to provide a credible conventional deterrent to infringements on our worldwide interests. It is the key to a major element of our defense policy -- the firm commitment to timely deployment of combat forces and suporting equipment to Europe to counter a Warsaw Pact threat against the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. The inability of planners to count on clear-cut and unambiguous indications of Warsaw Pact preparations for attack compound the already serious problems of resupply and reinforcement in the NATO arena. This is a discussion of our defense transportation system that current capabilities and organizations may not be sufficient to meet likely strategic deployment requirements for either long or short war senarios. Future conflicts may well involve an increase in the tempo of warfare, with resulting increases in the consumption of war-fighting materials, placing even greater demands on the transportation resources that make up the strategic mobility capability.

DOD has long been concerned about the quality service members receive from its nearly $3 billion annual program to transport, store, and manage the household goods and unaccompanied baggage of its personnel. Past problems include poor service from its movers, excessive incidence of loss or damage to service members' property, and high claims costs to the government. All of these problems contribute to a poor quality of service for persons using the system. DOD first proposed reengineering its personal property program 5 years ago.
