the operational process of synchronizing all elements of the logistic system to deliver the "right things" to the "right place" at the "right time" to support the geographic combatant commander
Good to know
Distribution is more than physical distribution of materiel - is the key component for executing logistics; it also includes synchronizing the functions of warehousing, inventory control, outbound transportation, materials handling, packaging, communications, and services such as maintenance.
Distribution provides operational commanders with endurance and operational reach. Distribution is the primary means to prolong endurance. It ensures that forces are receiving the materiel when needed and in the right quantities. Sustainment planners establish a distribution system in theater to support the needs of operational forces. The distribution system extends from the source of supply to the point of need.
A distribution-based logistics system combines information capabilities with efficient delivery systems to form an efficient distribution pipeline. Direct throughput of supplies from division and brigade to the battalion task force or company team is the rule rather than the exception with distribution-based logistics. The forward support company is the cornerstone of the distribution-based logistics system.
