Global Combat Support Sys - Army

Abstract

GCSS-Army is the tactical unit/installation logistics system for the US Army and is essential for combat readiness. GCSS-Army modernizes automated logistics by implementing best business practices to streamline supply operations, maintenance operations, property accountability, tactical logistics and financial management and integration procedures in support of the Future Force transition path of the Army Campaign Plan. GCSS-Army is an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system that tracks unit supplies, spare parts, organizational equipment, maintenance, total cost of ownership, and other financial transactions related to logistics for all Army units. This modernized application subsumes the outdated STAMIS that is not financially compliant and will integrate numerous local supply and logistics databases into a single, enterprise-wide authoritative system. GCSS-Army is financially compliant and is a key component for the Army Enterprise Strategy to be financially auditable. GCSS-Army affects every supply room, motor pool, direct support repair shop, warehouse, Logistics Readiness Center, and property book office in the Army. GCSS-Army is a key component of an ERP integrated solution that optimizes tactical logistics and finance domain business processes into a single approach. Delivering GCSS-Army eliminates the need for extensive maintenance and modification of aging, diverse software systems that are not cyber compliant, resulting in improved and efficient change control and configuration management through implementation of an enterprise system.
