“As you know, logistics is very critical. We cannot over emphasize this point. Without
a clear logistics system and supply chain management lines to our activities, our
operations, there is no way we can succeed,”
One of the key outcomes of the conference, which was attended by senior AMISOM
and the United Nations Support Office in Somalia (UNSOS) staff, was the
development and approval of a support implementation matrix which will ensure
efficient delivery of logistics to enhance the operational efficiency of the mission.
“This is a very important conference in which we were looking at the logistics of our
mission. As you know, logistics is very critical. We cannot over emphasize this point.
Without a clear logistics system and supply chain management line to our activities
and our operations, there is can be now way we can succeed,” Mulongo said.
Mr. Clark Toes, the UNSOS Chief of Service Delivery, expressed optimism from the
process and called for team work from all stakeholders to ensure success of the
mission.
“We have to understand that there are limitations on what we can do. We need to
manage our expectations however most importantly we need to work together so
we can be efficient and get things done,” Mr. Clark Toes explained.
Andrew Alele, AMISOM Engineer and Conference Coordinator, noted that key
objectives of the conference had been met, explaining that the developed matrix
matches activities and responsibilities with timelines which will ensure an efficient
and seamless delivery of logistics.
“We came up with a Support Implementation Matrix from 2019 to 2021. We will be
reviewing it periodically to assess where we are with our support. We had outcomes
on tasks for AMISOM and UNSOS. The matrix also has outcomes on how we are
going to support our operations innovatively,” Mr. Alele explained.
Several participants were pleased with the conference, noting that it was timely and
extremely beneficial.
“It (conference) has been fruitful. It has given us an opportunity to understand the
Memorandum of Understanding in our logistics support and the opportunity to
discuss the challenges we are facing in the field. We are optimistic about the way
forward ,” said Superintendent of Police, Naomi Simi.
Major Evans Wanjala, said that the conference had deepened their understanding
their knowledge concerning logistics supply, especially the enabling frameworks that
guide operations.
“It’s been a very useful discussion over the past couple of days. We concluded with
clear actions and this will enable us achieve our mandate as AMISOM,” Maj. Wanjala
explained.
