The War Industries Board (WIB), led by Bernard Baruch during World War I, played a crucial role in coordinating and regulating the U.S. industrial production to meet wartime needs. The WIB standardized products, allocated raw materials, and prioritized contracts to ensure efficient production of war supplies. By fostering collaboration between the government and industries, Baruch's leadership helped to increase output significantly, ensuring that American troops were well-equipped and supported throughout the conflict. This centralized approach also laid the groundwork for modern industrial mobilization in future conflicts.
