The Early Days LMI’s Certificate of Incorporation established LMI’s objectives, which included engaging in and procuring research, development, engineering, and advisory services for the United States Government or any nonprofit organization operated exclusively for scientific, educational, or charitable purposes.

We still operate the world’s most advanced logistics consulting group, but have expanded our scope to provide world-class expertise in the following:
