Te original handbook was based on thefagship logistics course taught by the USAID DELIVER PROJECT staf (then the Family Planning Logistics Management projectstaf). In 1992, Barbara Felling and Walter Proper developed the course, and ofered it to logisticians outside the project for the frst time.Te project’s Performance Improvement team continued to develop the course, providing many iterations and additional material. In 1998, toincrease the number of participants for the course, Barry Chovitz, a trainer and course developer since 1992, developed the handbookand led the efort to turn the extensive training curriculum into a textbook. Barbara Felling updated the handbook in 2004 to refectnew project knowledge. In 2010, a team of USAID DELIVER PROJECT technical advisors and staf solicited input from all technical teamsto make the most signifcant revision and update to the complete handbook since it was frst published in 1998. Major contributersincluded Claudia Allers, Dana Aronovich, Jaya Chimnani, Todd Dickens, Paul Dowling, Barbara Felling, Carolyn Hart, Alexis Heaton,Rich Owens, Leslie Patykewich, Gregory Roche, Eric Takang, and Edward Wilson. Te lead review team included Lilia Gerberg, KellyHamblin, Erin Hasselberg, Naomi Printz, and Ashley Smith. Gus Osorio designed the graphics and the layout. Pat Shawkey was theeditor. Te stand-alone handbook is based on a wide range of knowledge and information from staf throughout the project.Cover photo: During the rainy season an ox cart is the only reliable way to get health commodities across the fooded plains to ruralhealth centers in Zambia’s western province.
