Proposed new section

''I work for Booz Allen's Marketing & Communications team. I would like to propose either a new subsection within History or a new standalone section immediately following history called Research and Publications. If it's better as a subsection within History, I recommend having it added after IPO since some of the research predates the 1998 IRS story.''

Proposed Section:

Research and Publications

Booz Allen has been credited with developing several business concepts. In 1957, Sam Johnson, great grandson of S.C. Johnson & Son founder, and Booz Allen’s Conrad Jones published “How to Organize for New Products,” which helped shape modern theories on product life-cycle management. In 1958, the U.S. Navy Special Projects Office, Lockheed, Booz, Allen  &  Hamilton, collaborated to develop the Program Evaluation and Review Technique (PERT), a statistical tool used in project management to analyze and represent the tasks involved in completing a given project. In 1982, Booz Allen's Keith Oliver coined the term "supply chain management" first using it in an interview with Arnold Kransdorff of the Financial Times on 4 June 1982.

Thank you for considering these recommendations. Kemples (talk) 21:14, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
