THE disciplined forces are working towards an integrated logistics approach.
Addressing a workshop, the Police Commissioner Brigadier Ioane Naivalurua said the participants played an important role in the overall objectives of Government.
A Police Media Cell statement quoted Brig Naivalurua as saying: "A good logistician will ensure his resources are well utilised from the time the resources are bought in to the time they are used and produce the needed outcome.
"A good logistician will ensure the resources will last longer than anticipated and that there is no wastage.
"A good logistician will hit five birds with one stone and not the other way around."
Organised by the Fiji Police Force Inventory Management Cell, the workshop was attended by senior logistic officers of the police, military and prisons department.
They were taught the importance of a united approach and fostering interoperability to better use resources.
