About the Best Practices Forum

Welcome to the Defense News Best Practices Forum. Subject matter experts from PTC are highlighting topics relating to Total Lifecycle Systems Management and other A&D industry trends. The goal is to foster peer-to-peer dialog among industry leaders and collaboration across DoD communities and organizations that might not traditionally engage in these types of dialog.

We encourage you to join the conversation, share your insights and experiences, and raise any questions you might have. In the interest of developing as open a discussion as possible, we'd ask that you include your name, organization and other relevant details when you submit your comments.

We look forward to insightful discussions in the weeks ahead and hope that you'll join us each week as new topics are introduced.
