Oh, I love this idea…
People who haven’t seen a barracks room, motor pool, or DFAC in years keep talking about what the Army “needs.” Maybe do an undercover boss type program & understand you don’t know what you’re talking about.

In 2025, ERPs are a failed technology. The private sector has learned its lesson, but the U.S. military continues to spend billions. Unless we leave them in the past, where they belong, the Pentagon will technologically remain unable to keep pace with the changing nature of war.

Really good thoughts from @jbyerly81 and @FTGNotebook. Also, crepes are unequivocally superior to avocado toast. I’ve never even tried avocado toast because I know this is true. Both are better than scones. Scones are gross.

Good thoughts from my friend James Boyd. How often is gym time / range time / military skills time co-opted because we’re stuck doing paperwork, battling systems implemented by companies who never even claimed to be good at software..?
🕰️ Time is Readiness. In the military, time is treated like it’s free—but every minute lost to friction is a minute we’re not building readiness. It’s time we wage war on wasted time. Read more ⬇️ at @FTGNotebook

AOK generates net new, real-time data about personnel, equipment, and munitions from the individual-level up through the chain of command, increasing readiness, operational agility, and lethality of America’s forces, while decreasing time spent on administrative tasks.
