Executive Summary
The war against terrorism and drug trafficking requires, among other things,
reliable equipment resulting from a professional preventive maintenance
program. Jenkins-Lara Consulting (JLC) has leveraged the expertise of a
recent acquisition to develop the first integrated logistics application in
Spanish based on proven US Army logistics doctrine –Sistema Integrado de
Logística Computarizada –inventario y mantenimiento (SILC-im). This tool
may be used in public, private or military organizations, and will allow senior
management or donor agencies to monitor the care given to the donated
equipment. SILC-im is an effective tool in accomplishing the Department of
Defense mission in Latin America and in helping SOUTHCOM raise the
level of professionalism throughout its area of responsibility; all while
improving the readiness of these armed forces and increasing their level of
property accountability. This application and the subsequent support meet
the stated requirements for funding under the Foreign Military Sales (FMS),
Foreign Military Financing (FMF), and Foreign Aid Programs.
