About the Role

This position analyzes delivery and movement costs, recommends cost-effective methods, and supports the Transportation Manager and Transportation Ops Supervisor in planning, developing, and implementing procedures. The role maintains delivery and movement schedules, tracks performance to ensure mission requirements are met, and monitors/reports driver issues while exercising a high degree of latitude and potentially acting as a lead for complex tasks.

Commitment to achieving 100% mission readiness standards in support of the Army and the Logistics Readiness Center (LRC) at Fort Sill, ensuring all transportation operations align with contract performance metrics. Consistently deliver safe, compliant, and high-quality transportation services, contributing to zero reportable safety incidents and directly enhancing the operational effectiveness and well-being of all Soldiers.

Responsibilities

Prepare cost comparisons, utilization reports, and decision briefs to support LRC-Sill, KO, COR, Transportation Manager, and other management.
• Safety & Compliance: Monitor and report driver issues (accidents, safety concerns, licensing, medical certification, DOT physicals); ensure corrective actions and retraining are executed effectively. Contribute to enforcing applicable Army/DoD policies for government vehicle operations, driver authorization, trip tickets, and risk management. Support vehicle safety inspections, bus cleanliness standards, and preventive maintenance coordination with the motor pool.
• Scheduling & Tracking: Maintain delivery/movement schedules and track execution to confirm all requirements are met; adjust plans for changes and emergent tasks. Contribute to maintaining KPIs, AQLs, CDRLs, and other contractual metrics and publish reports.
• Process Development & Continuous Improvement: Support the Transportation Manager in planning, developing, and implementing internal procedures and techniques for movement of personnel and goods. Identify workflow bottlenecks; collaborate with or lead improvement initiatives (e.g., optimized dispatch windows, digital rider manifests, real-time bus status boards).
• Stakeholder Coordination: Liaise with units, DPW/Range Scheduling, internal stakeholders, Safety Office, Branch Chiefs, and Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR) to synchronize transport support. Coordinate with maintenance, fuel, and operations teams to ensure bus availability and readiness.
• Documentation & Systems: Maintain movement records, incident reports, driver qualification files, and required forms per policy. Utilize logistics/transportation systems and tools (e.g., GCSS-Army, TC-AIMS II, Microsoft Excel/SharePoint, scheduling software) for planning and reporting.
• Leadership: Act as an advisor, and potentially lead, for complex movement missions and special events; provide task and purpose to dispatchers and drivers at the Transportation Manager’s direction and discretion. Mentor junior staff; ensure adherence to SOPs and contract performance standards.
