Stanley offers the services associated with the special item numbers (SINs) listed below in the Logistics Worldwide (LOGWORLD) Federal Supply Schedule contract.

Supply and Value Chain Management Services (874-501):
On a planning basis, strategic planning is an integral part of Stanley’s support to our customers. We use the development of an operational architecture approach as an excellent method for designing and developing a plan to achieve the strategic goals of the client. The operational architecture approach and final results become an integral part of the strategic and action plans to transform the organization’s logistics chain. The planning process itself is executed as an accelerated concept definition project. The operational architecture’s products identify the functional foundation and actions needed to achieve that transformation. In the process we blend our considerable operational experience into the client’s vision of a future and their needs on a very practicable basis.

The plan supports detailed logistics planning, orders development and generation of essential information for executing and assessing ones logistics operations. It can be implemented employing advanced technical, logistics, and managerial techniques to deliver multiple, increasingly capable, responses.

One gathers initial information to compare capabilities against requirements with the idea to better manage and operate the movement of materials with available assets to and from one’s warehouses. The logisticians use technology to fully participate in the planning and execution of the deployment or redeployment operations while providing the end-users with real-time visibility of arriving assets. Meanwhile, the managers can to make informed decisions about whether the logistics plans can support mission accomplishment or alternatives need to be constructed. Thus one has Total Asset Visibility.

On an operational basis, Stanley provides comprehensive supply chain management process and support systems to track equipment receipt, storage, requisition filling, transport, and reclamation activities for its clients. In one case, we are responsible for receipts, inventory management, storage, requisition processing, and material transport of the client’s materials. We lease, operate, and maintain their warehouse facility. We transport authorized shipments to the supply center for packaging and shipment processing. We use a database management system to record/track transactions and to provide a monthly status report. Kits are used to repair, replace, upgrade, or modify specific items. We assemble, warehouse, and inventory kits. This is a nationwide warehouse management program.

Acquisition Logistics (874-502):
In the field of Acquisition Logistics, Stanley develops technical specifications, technical statements of work, and other acquisition documentation required for the procurement of equipment, supplies and services to support air, sea, and land based logistics and transportation operations. Stanley is expert at identifying, qualifying, selecting, and dealing with vendors who provide products and services to support such operations. It continues then to be involved in the monitoring of such ventures to determine compliance with contract terms and conditions and to identify better ways for doing things in the future.

The goal is guaranteeing just on time delivery of inventory so that the client can accomplish their mission at the proper location, at the right time, with appropriate quantities of goods, and in serviceable condition.

In doing that, Stanley will evaluate logistics planing and procurements for all items and systems to ensure the necessary logistics resources have been applied to achieve and maintain desired objectives. This starts by evaluating and ensuring that individual business objectives and supporting strategies have been mutually agreed upon, understood, and are being (or can be) well executed. We participate in logistics management reviews, transition meetings, maintenance workload planning conferences, and other conferences that would be held as part of the global planning process. There we utilize all forms of logistics data and relational databases to evaluate and substantiate our data analysis. We identify mission critical items and define and describe cost degraders that are candidates for maintainability improvements.

Ongoing and detailed management, trend, and cost analyses are performed to determine that intermediate and/or loss in transit costs are consistent with historical and projected costs for the new/modified systems. Data from best value analysis studies, trade analysis studies, and logistic support analyses are input into source databases for each of the operational elements.
If necessary we will conduct a survey of existing performance and system capabilities. We will even assess the efficiency and effectiveness of the business change process and implementation schema.

We identify problem areas, document results, provide appropriate background data, and recommended solutions. We monitor and distribute prime contract Technical Directives to clarify terms and conditions within contracts. We use simulation and modeling to conduct maintenance and reliability analysis. We analyze transaction data to ensure overall validity and accuracy in outcome. Modeling is utilized to determine future requirements annually and in response to maintenance workload based on a five-year projection matrix.

Distribution and Transportation Logistics (874-503):
Stanley is involved with fleet planning, operations and maintenance for several of its clients. A large portion of Stanley’s operational site support functions surround the planning for and actual loading of vessels in an Atlantic seaport. Stanley has developed many models of transport operations at a variety of levels of detail, from corporate planning to precise shipboard loading algorithms for containers as well as fuel movements. Personnel are involved in all aspects of the ship loading process for eventual transportation of equipment, material, and hazardous materials to the deployment site. Stanley analysts use data contained in the information systems to develop plans for use in supporting the ship up- and down-loading processes.

Stanley also facilitates the development of all transportation documentation requirements in a movement. Stanley provides transportation logistics support through the development and maintenance of interfaces with the planning tools used prior to a deployment.

Deployment Logistics (874-504):
Stanley provides contingency planning, regional or global resource identification/utilization, and public/private sector resource integration. We also manage inventory/property planning, and provide movement, storage, and end-to-end office and industrial relocation/expansion services, including project/asset/construction management, space planning and project integration/implementation, pre-positioning of assets, and facilitating of customs processing/accountability. Many of our tasks also require the deployment of communications and logistics systems to permit rapid deployment and management of supplies and equipment.

Logistics Training Services (874-505):
Stanley is engaged in training at all levels. Training for one client may involve many different aspects of their logistics business and the underlying technology that support the business. Also the client is generally a global organization. Thus, Stanley provides training through a mobile training team (MTT) whose breadth features high-level transportation and logistics policy lessons intermixed with hands-on software training down to the use of global positioning equipment and its applications in the field. MTT engagements are conducted at client sites worldwide.

The team is equipped with hardware, software, and training materials that constitute a portable classroom. Classroom size averages 25-30 students.

Stanley also develops, implements, and coaches in Computer Based Training (CBT) via interactive, multi-media based tools that provide complete training on an individual basis. Any “lesson” can be completed from start to finish using step-by-step instructions and context sensitive help tools.

For one client who faces the complexity of deployment planning and normal military turnover in the performance of their logistics requirements, training from afar has become an absolute necessity. Thus Stanley is required to take the required training to the users. In this instance, the system designers embedded a Computer-Based Training (CBT) program into every station. At the station, the computer senses the user’s behavior and suggests training exercises to improve performance. The scope of this training varies from quick reference to comprehensive, and involves situations from crisis response to sustainment training.

Stanley is expert as providing Configuration Management training and workshops. The scope ranges from the sharing of configuration management expertise and experience to the approach and methods by which one can establish a set of technical directives to manage and control configuration management responsibilities. This training is targeted to those who provided who provide Configuration Management process support services and leads to certification for users staff.

Operations & Maintenance (O&M) of Logistics Management and Distribution Systems (874-507):
Stanley provides full turnkey operations support for the major logistics systems of two military clients. This includes the maintenance and support services, the O&M of systems and components, and technology refreshes to improve system and logistics performance. We provide best practices, technologies, and methodologies to plan, design, implement, manage, operate and maintain those logistic systems.

Stanley provides O&M support and developed a system to remotely administer all sites of an extended database system. Version control and system reliability are ensured through the application of advanced system configuration management and quality assurance controls. We routinely complete remote installation of upgrades at 35 sites worldwide, including 18 servers and 500 client computers within a 24-hour period.
