Department of Defense Maintenance Symposium

After record-breaking attendance at the 2023 Symposium in San Diego, the 2024 DoD Maintenance Symposium in Salt Lake City promises to be an even better event!  The Maintenance Symposium is the only official DoD event conducted by the Office of the Secretary of Defense that is entirely focused on the maintenance and sustainment of weapon systems and equipment. The Symposium is the premier forum for the exchange of ideas from the greatest maintenance and logistics minds in the country as participants discuss the pacing national security threats to the sustainment enterprise.

Over 2,300 maintainers from military, government, industry, and academia are expected to converge at the Symposium in Salt Lake City, Utah, in 2024. This year’s program content is currently in development. Additionally, the Symposium will include the inspirational, high-energy, annual Secretary of Defense Maintenance Awards Banquet and Ceremony recognizing the Department’s best maintainers.

Plan to participate, speak-up, tell your story, ask tough questions, and expand your professional network…don’t sit quietly admiring the problem, standup and be part of the solution.
