From roads, to water, and barracks to dining halls, the U.S. Department of Defense and each Service Branch manages a tremendous number of assets in the form of infrastructure and utilities. Installation and maintenance of these assets is a critical component of the DoD’s ability to create and sustain mission readiness. Through the use of data and analytics, DoD can leverage new and emerging technologies to efficiently manage installation and maintenance projects and can make data-driven funding decisions to improve risk mitigation. 

Join GovExec as we talk with DoD leaders about how the DoD is utilizing technology to improve asset management and how new technologies and solutions can drive further innovation and efficiency, improving readiness and mission success
