This paper documents the enterprise-wide lean implementation effort at Ogden Air Logistics Center, Hill Air Force Base, Utah, and provides lessons learned for future application. Under the banner of transformation, Ogden started their enterprise lean journey in November 2003 with the Lean Aerospace Initiative (LAI) and their industry consortium members facilitating as a strategic coach. The framework for their strategy finished in June 2004. As background, the first part of the paper is dedicated to understanding the influences (geo-political, legislative, private industry/academia) affecting transformation within the Department of Defense and specific change initiatives at Air Force Materiel Command. The latter sections describe the change process itself at Ogden.
