Leadership Team
Robert Leonard, President
 Mr. Leonard is the architect and driving force behind the Pueo Group consortium concept. He currently serves as the President of 3DL Logistics.
Mr. Leonard brings over 35 years of successful commercial and government business experience in maritime, remote location, severe weather logistics, manufacturing, engineering support, and design.
He developed several new companies from Seafood Processing to Supply Chain support for numerous Alaska based Fishing companies and coastal communities. The logistics involved in the procurement, consolidation and shipping to the most remote locations of Alaska led to the development of a multifaceted transportation network. Through the transport mediums of shipping via barge, steamship, air and road, new methods and technology for transportation were developed for remote sites which have become the norm for arctic extreme locations and areas lacking logistic infrastructure.
In addition, Mr. Leonard designed, built and operated several large landing craft (150’ L) to accomplish successful lighterage deliveries up rivers and to the shallowest of Coastal Villages. So robust were these vessels, they were utilized by the US Navy to support retrieval of damaged U2 Planes from Guam, ultimately returning them to the Mainland in San Diego. These vessels, utilizing RO/RO capabilities, were also used in the buildup of the Meck and Kwajalien Island AB missile silos where no port facility existed.
Mr. Leonard supported Marine Corp projects, which included engineering support and document control services for the early testing of the V22 Osprey at PAX River, MD. He also provided engineering support to the National Guard Bureau for the reset of training support vehicles at several of the National Guard bases as well as develop, build and maintain shoot houses at various training ranges.
Mr. Leonard also led the design and development of a new 600 GPM pump utilized by the US Marine Corps, which soon became the standard for the US Army, TACOM. Through the use of a successful Integrated Process Team with government participation, a very cost effective approach was developed that was deemed best value to meet the critical missions of fuel and water transfer.
Additionally, an extensive maritime back ground enabled Mr. Leonard to develop a security program for high value Submarines departing from Bangor, San Diego and Pearl Harbor. This program allowed contractor owned and operated, high speed vessels to operate with armed Uniformed Navy personnel. These vessels provided security offshore until subs reached the appropriate dive point.
Mr. Leonard provided solutions to agencies with emerging requirements. He led the development of a training vessel utilized by the US Coast Guard Air Training Center in Mobile, AL. This vessel, along with its contractor-supplied crew, was used as a decoy and rescue platform for helicopter operations training missions, using evasive maneuvers and simulated target.
Recently, Mr Leonard successfully developed a source of supply using supply chain management for the US Army’s Force Provider group in Natick, MA. This project includes over 1100 items which are received, inventoried and packaged into tricon containers and forward shipped to Afghanistan. The Force Provider Project, Forward Operating Base consists of every conceivable part and system utilized for both 350 and 600 man camps.
