DEDSO Activity Report November 2025
Volume 2 Issue 11
NEWS: We continue to work to improve our processes to make your use of the DLMS easier. This month we worked with the Office of Assistant Secretary of War for Logistics (ODASW(L)) to streamline the proposed DLMS change process. As a result, we eliminated an extraneous coordination step that will reduce the entire process by 30 days. The lengthy coordination process for a DLMS change has long been a source of frustration so this will provide some relief. You will see nothing new other than faster delivery of solutions.
