ALA Position Statement 2017-2018
Strategy
and Engagement to Promote, Protect and Enhance the Defense Resale Business
Channel - Put the patron first and recognize that increased sales provide the best gauge of customer acceptance and provide the engine to backstop and power resale reforms.
- Ensure that the patron has a voice in decisions that affect the source and application of funds that are generated from patrons. - Promote a volume-based program that grows the resale channel and reduces overhead costs. - Support resale restructuring that optimizes application of resources and deployment of capital and places backroom efficiencies ahead of programs that raise prices to patrons of limit product availability. Work with resale partners to gain efficiencies in operations that do not impact patrons. Support backroom efficiencies but not initiatives
that have a negative impact on the patron.ALA Update
