The opening session at Installation Innovation Forum will feature senior commanders talking about the challenges that installation managers face and how they can use limited resources for innovative solutions.

The “Installation Innovation Today” panel will feature Vice Adm. Yancy Lindsey, the commander of Navy Installations Command, Lt. Gen. Douglas Gabram, the commanding general of Army Installation Management Command, and Maj. Gen. John Wilcox, the commander of Air Force Installation and Mission Support Center.

They will discuss the strategies, policies and partnerships that can help achieve mission assurance, even with tight budgets and growing infrastructure challenges.

The discussion kicks off three days of sessions, town halls, networking events and more, detailed in the full agenda, which ADC released Wednesday.
