    The document discusses the supply chain challenges of providing food to over 150,000 US troops stationed across dining facilities in Iraq. Key issues include a lack of central authority over the 40 approved suppliers spread across the US, unreliable lead times with suppliers, problems with expired goods, damaged shipments, lengthy documentation, lack of tracking and coordination, and an inability to ship partial pallets or containers. Military customers place weekly online orders that the logistics company Agility receives, reviews, and finalizes for assembly and shipment into Iraq under military protection, where facilities sign off on deliveries.
