Background: The CAD/PAD Joint Program Office (JPO) operates within the Department of Defense (DoD) and focuses on the life cycle management of the CAD/PAD product line. The Integrated Logistics Management (ILM) initiative creates a platform for showcasing and discussing emerging processes and technologies in total life cycle support with our customers. Established in 1989, the ILM originally functioned as the Integrated Logistics Support Management Team (ILSMT), providing the United States Navy and Marine Corps (USN/USMC) aircraft maintenance and ordnance logistics workforce a dedicated forum to address and document life cycle management challenges related to the CAD/PAD product line.
In 1996, the CAD/PAD Team extended invitations to international partners to participate in these meetings. Today, our global partners play a critical role in furthering U.S. strategic objectives.
