Show NEWS Continued from Pogt 1 Secretary Rice said AFLCs expertise in providing worldwide logistics support to include maintenance, modification and overhaul of weapon systems combined with AFSCs expertise in science, technology, research and development, and testing will make the new Air Force Materiel Command a world-class- " organization. He said Air Force operational commands will have a single point of contact for everything from the initial research and development to the long-termaintenance of aircraft and missiles. The secretary said the integration is possible because the two commands have undergone significant streamlining during the past year as a result of the Defense Management Review process and changes. Both commands have adopted similar management philosophies emphasizing continuous process improvement, movement of authority and responsibility to the lowest level and strong 44 m self-initiate- d partnership with their shared operational customers and industry. General McDonald echoed the secre Jon. 11, 1991 f?Ts COMMAND tary's comments. "This integration is 3 Hilltop Times PROFILES designed to capitalize on the strengths of both commands," General McDonald said. "We will put technology into logistics and take logistics expertise and put it into technology. The end result will be better, more efficient support for the operational commands making them more ready for any peacetime or wartime requirement." He said AFLC has "flattened" its organizational structure by eliminating many middle layers of management and combining some organizations. The command's five air logistics centers have restructured around "product" directorates in order to provide better, more direct service to their customers, the operational commands. AFSC has streamlined through such initiatives as transferring its space launch operations to Air Force Space MISSIONS Moior repair, modification and overhoul of aircraft, misiilet, enginet ond components; procurement, itoroge ond distribution of oircroft ond inLsile ports; international logistics support to some 80 countries; storage of surplus aircraft.
