Global Combat Support Sys - Army

Abstract

GCSS-Army Increment 1 provides critical Army sustainment support to the soldier with a seamless flow of timely, accurate, accessible, and secure information management that gives combat forces a decisive edge and is essential for combat readiness. The GCSS-Army approved Capability Description Document (CDD) and Capability Production Document (CPD) require an enterprise approach to replace current logistics and maintenance Standard Army Management Information Systems (STAMIS) to include supply, maintenance, ammunition and property book. GCSS-Army implements best business practices to streamline supply, accountability, maintenance, distribution, and reporting procedures in support of the future force transition path of The Army Campaign Plan. GCSS-Army is financially compliant and is a key component for the Army Enterprise Strategy to be financially auditable. The funds in the GCSS-Army Increment 1 Research Development Test & Evaluation (RDT&E) line are for building the software solution for disconnected supply, maintenance and accountability. Aviation applications could leverage the ground disconnected operations solution for common functions without additional development. The Army requires a disconnected operations architecture for GCSS-Army to support ground mission. The FY22 funding will continue building the software solution for disconnected supply, maintenance and accountability. Currently the Army has battlefield gaps without network connectivity: inability to maintain or regenerate combat power, order/process spare parts, track battle losses, or conduct maintenance. The disconnected operations architecture will alleviate these problems when there are disruptions in communications or cyber-attacks. In FY2022 the Army will complete design, development and build of disconnected operations capability to support ground operations. The FY 2022 funding also supports critical change requests in each fiscal year, coming from the warfighter and prioritized by the Combat Developer, for the baseline system.
