Military Configuration
Management
Military configuration
management should really be regarded as nothing different from the
industry standard best practice process based Configuration
management. Some of the interesting characteristics I have noticed
while doing research is that every military organization has its own
standards etc.
What I found of
significance is that even areas within the same military department
have, at times, totally separate procedures and processes that do
not interact or correspond to each other in the slightest
way!
Military configuration
management – How is best practice
applied?
Now, I am lead to
believe (actually a little more than lead as I have a military
background) that two of the fundamentals of land warfare are Cooperation and Economy of Effort. The
thing I find interesting as these principles do not seem to apply
when there is no shooting taking place.
What I mean is that
each and every department of each and every service or arm in the
world seem to want to recreate the wheel in everything they do. Now
I do not mean to gripe, but when asked this question and I started
to research, I expected a common approach.
I was very
disappointed in the lack of cooperation I
found.
