Accessions Information Environment (AIE)
Abstract
AIE is a new accessioning and recruiting enterprise Customer Relationship Management (CRM) software solution serving the Army's recruiting mission specifically supporting recruiters as they meet with future Soldiers and organizations in their community. AIE manages the process from prospect generation to the point of Soldiers arriving at the initial military training. AIE supports Army's accessioning process through its four missions: (1) Enlist Soldiers, (2) Commission Officers through the Reserve Officers' Training Corps (ROTC) program, (3) In-Service requirements, and (4) Direct Commission. AIE will replace 11 legacy systems and 33 modules of the active Accessions IT systems that have been in existence for over 30 years. AIE provides the baseline solution for future recruitment innovation and fixes legacy problems of frequent outages and unstable performance directly impairing the Army's ability to complete its recruiting mission. AIE is a critical Army modernization effort to re-engineer the business processes for Army accessioning and recruiting and to ensure the Army can acquire the best qualified talent, meet manning requirements, and achieve readiness objectives. The delivery of AIE will provide an enterprise level capability for recruiting Army Soldiers across all components, enabling a transparent and efficient workforce. AIE is a COTS based information technology (IT) software system that will modernize the accessions environment. AIE will leverage an agile approach to deliver eight core capabilities: lead generation & management, prospecting, interviewing, processing, pay & incentives, intelligence, marketing, and training/leader development. FY 2025 Base dollars in the amount of $32.265 million support development configuration of the AIE solution including agile quarterly planning sessions, Minimum Viable Capability Release (MVCR) design, agile development teams, program management support, business process reengineering, interface development, integration, cybersecurity, systems engineering, developer and test software licenses, test and evaluation, and ongoing analysis of potential alternatives to support solution requirements. AIE's FY 2025 RDT&E supports AIE's incremental software releases throughout FY 2025 and the 2.0 In-Service and Direct Commission software release planned for 4QFY25. Key events leading up to the 2.0 In-Service Mission and Direct Commission software release include exploratory and automated regression testing, incremental quarterly software releases, an Army Test and Evaluation Command (ATEC) operational assessment, and multiple system cybersecurity reviews. The 2.0 In-Service and Direct Commission software release will add lead generation/management, intelligence, marketing, prospecting, interviewing, and processing capabilities for a unique mission set supported by approximately 4,000 recruiters.
