Deployment and Distribution Enterprise Technology

Abstract

USTRANSCOM is tasked to provide globally integrated, agile deployment and distribution solutions and related enabling capabilities to support national security, force readiness and sustainability within an increasingly constrained defense budget. Unpredictable and extended global distribution routes, limited visibility of sustainment requirements, force packaging limitations, lift constraints, anti-access/aerial denial concerns, complex supply chains, as well as non-networked battlefield command and control, planning, and decision support tools impede timely customer logistical support. To project unimpeded global power and influence, USTRANSCOM must have access to relevant, real-time information and invest in enabling capabilities that contribute to mission success. Effective knowledge sharing and transparency across the joint logistics enterprise, facilitated by secure enterprise-wide visibility into logistical processes and the ability to effectively collaborate/operate in a degraded cyberspace, is required to promote effective, efficient and responsive global management of force projection and sustainment resources.
